Excerpt from Testing Milk and Cream Sampling is the first important step in any test: an inaccurate sample Will of course give incorrect results regardless of the accuracy of the test ing. The experience and skill of the operator cannot offset inaccurate sampling. The most satisfactory method of mixing milk for sampling is to pour it from one container to another. If the cream has risen one must repeat the pouring three or four times and perhaps warm the milk slightly in order to soften the lumps of cream and to distribute the fat uniformly throughout the milk. In cow-testing work the complete milk; ing is poured from one pail to another as soon as it is drawn, and the sample taken at once. The sample must be taken Immediately after mix ing, because the fat soon begins to rise. Milk stirrers or mechanical agitators should be used if the milk cannot be poured from one container to another. Great care is needed to insure thorough mixing immediately before the sample is taken.
