The author provides instruction on preparing samples for testing, using the Babcock glassware, completing the test, detecting and correcting imperfect tests, and testing homogenized milk and cream. Additionally, this resource includes further tests for skim milk, buttermilk, and whey, and concludes with methods to preserve samples, clean glassware, and determine total solids and specific gravity in milk.
