A. Milk Homogenization:
a. Homogenization is a mechanical process that transforms the two, separate components of whole fresh milk– cream and low-fat milk–into one smooth beverage. To accomplish this, fresh milk is heated and pumped through tiny nozzles at high pressure. The pressure tears the fat globules of the cream into tiny particles, which then disperse evenly throughout the low-fat milk. Non-Homogenized milk will naturally separate into two layers of liquid milk and fatty cream.
B. Milk Pasteurization
a. Pasteurization is the process of heating milk up and then quickly cooling it down to eliminate certain bacteria. For effective pasteurization, milk can be heated up to 145 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes or at least 161.6 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 seconds
