Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station, Manhattan

ABSTRACT

During August Reichert-Meissl numbers of butterfat from 169 samples of ice cream were determined. The arithmetical mean value was 29.19 and the range was 27.40 to 31.35. Reichert-Meissl numbers of 160 of the 169 samples (94.6%) were between 28.00 and 30.50.

Over a 1-year period, 105 samples of commercial butter from 10 butter-producing plants in Kansas were analyzed. Samples were collected monthly. The arithmetical mean Reichert-Meissl number was 28.40 and the range was 27.05 to 30.10.
