Hi, Milk Fans

Yes, I’m still here - sorry for being so quiet - my interest in the dairy industry has for a long time shifted to hobby-status.  There is a big chance of this changing shortly - keep posted to see where I pop up next in the South African Dairy Industry!

Remember to drink your milk and to eat your cheese!

Cheers,

Leon the Milkman

Forgot to milk the cows? - won’t happen again!

Talk about serious issues!!  According to Reuters an employer in India beheaded one of his workers for not milking his cows.  He should drink more milk - it calms you.

I’m off ;-)

Doris makes cheese.

Doris the Cheese Maker!

Doris the Cheese Maker!

Doris says,

“I want to make cheese because I am curious. Curious if I am able to MAKE what most other people BUY, to find out the process that is behind the neatly wrapped yellow squares in the supermarkets and to be independent from the market.
 I started by asking my network of family and friends, the knowledge that they gave me I substitued with books and info on the internet. I put these little bits and pieces of information together and began the process of making my first cheese. Leon the milkman helped me with the finishing touches.
 

I was so excited when I tasted my first cheese, and so were my friends: “Did you really make this? I did not know that one can make cheese on their own!”
But the excitement goes much further: it encourages me to try a lot of things that I considered impossible before.”

(Within my practise as a fine arts student I work with food issues regarding cultural aspects, global distribution, access and the power of the market)

Thanks, Doris for the post

Remember to drink your milk - it’s good for you!

Kind regards

Freezing points of 2% milk in celsius

Posted on December 7th, 2006 by Leon the Milkman.
Categories: Dairy News, Milk.

Hi Milk fans

It makes no difference what the fat percentage of milk is when it is to be tested for freezing point.  The result is dependant on the dissolved substances in the milk - the lactose and minerals.  So milk with any fat percentage can be tested without preparation.

Drink you milk!

p.s. We will be back with the cow series shortly!
