Rennet tests.—The percentage of lactic acid present in the milk can readily be determined directly by titration with a stand- ard alkali, but the amount of lactic acid present is also quite readily determined by the len g t h of time required for ren- net coagulation, since rennet acts more quickly upon milk the riper it is, and upon this fact two or three simple tests have been devised. ng The simplest of these test is made, Digitized by Microsoft®. 6, 50 e.
