With a focus on specific gravity, the Cowbell Lactometer identifies milk dilution. Borosilicate glass construction prevents thermal cracking during fluid immersion. The 0-40 scale provides raw density data for instant purity assessment.
Key Features
- Borosilicate Glass Body: High-grade thermal glass resists fracturing when measuring warm liquids. It maintains structural integrity across varying temperature ranges.
- 0-40 Density Scale: Calibrated markings show specific gravity for quick purity verification. You detect water volume by monitoring the float's depth.
- Plastic Storage Case: Rigid outer shell protects the glass from impact during transit. It keeps road dust off the sensitive scale between uses.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to check milk purity with a lactometer?
Submerge the device in a milk-filled jar and wait for it to float steadily. The scale reading at the liquid's surface reveals the density level.
What is the normal reading of a lactometer in pure milk?
Pure milk typically shows a reading between 26 and 32 on the scale. Lower numbers indicate the presence of added water.
