BUTTER ANALYSIS

I. OBJECTIVES

Determine the percentage of acidity and salt concentration in a sample of


butter.
Observe the organoleptic characteristics of the butter.

II. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Butter is a dairy derivative, which is important as food due to the fat.


What it contains, nutritionally this fat is important because it transmits vitamins.
liposoluble components of milk such as Vitamins A, D, and E mainly, regarding their
Energy value is equivalent to that of other fats and oils.

Butter production dates back to the early stages of the transformation process of
the milk. The cream naturally separated and the butter was made in a way
manual in wooden butter churns. Gradually, the methods were improved.
production of butter, which increased the quality of the product and its
economic performance.

In recent decades, there has been a rapid technological development in all the
areas. The current production of butter is based on modern technological processes.
and in rigorous total quality controls.

Butter or fat is the emulsion of water in fat obtained as a result of


destruction, washing and kneading of the clusters of fat globules that are formed by
the whipped cream is suitable for consumption, with no biological maturation
produced by specific bacteria. It is a very fatty food, rich in fats.
saturated, cholesterol, and calories, which makes it advisable for athletes or people
that require significant energy consumption.

Unhomogenized milk and cream contain butter fats in the form of


microscopic globules. These globules are surrounded by crafted membranes of
phospholipids (fatty acids that emulsify you) and proteins, which prevent that the
cream from the milk lumps into a uniform mass.
Butter is produced by churning cream from milk, which causes a damage
from the membranes and allows the fats in the milk to come together into a single mass, and
waiting at the same time for other parts.

There are different variations in the preparation, and this means that there are not only
different flavors but also there can be different consistencies of the dough of
butter, however most of the final product is made up of fats
from the butter. Butter contains three types of fats: free fats, fats
crystallized, and undamaged fat globules. In the final product, there is a proportion
of these three types of fats and this is the reason for the difference in consistency in the
various types of butter.

The process of removing the cream from the milk produces small "clumps" floating in the
liquid solution of the cream. This solution is called buttermilk - (whey of
butter), this whey is now consumed in some countries as a dairy product. The
butter serum is being removed from the process and the resulting lumps are being discarded
working, pressing and removing to form a single solid mass.
When prepared by hand, wooden levers known as 'manos' are used.
Scottish (scotch hands). This operation gives consistency to the butter and goes
clearing from the inside of the clumps the small water droplets that are leaving
remaining inside it. Commercial butter has a fat content of around
80% butterfat and a remaining 15% water; artisanal butter has
a different proportion reaching 65% fat and 30% water

There are several types of butter, but two can basically be distinguished:

Sour butter: before the cream is acidified


Sweet butter: after the acidification of the cream (this is the traditional one)

STORAGE
Butter can generally be spread on bread or toast at a
temperature of 15 °C, above the operating temperature of therefrigerator.
The so-called 'butter compartment' that can be found in many
refrigerators is one of the least cold areas, but still far from the ideal temperature for
so that the butter spreads easily once placed on the table.
When storing butter, the following should be taken into account:

Butter is a food that due to its physical and chemical characteristics


has a great resistance to bacterial contamination.1For this reason it is possible
keep the butter at room temperature for days without it being
attacked by bacteria; however, the flavor is affected because of the fats
the butter reacts (oxidizes), producing rancid flavors.

Butter is capable of absorbing strong odors around it, which is why it


it is advisable to store it in the refrigerator, in airtight containers and as much as possible
away from the possible light.

Store the butter in its original container or wrapping, do not usepaper


aluminumas a wrapper, the direct contact of the fats in the butter with the
metal causes its immediate oxidation, particularly in salted butters.

The parts of the butter exposed to light and air usually have a more
yellowish or even translucent; these areas should be avoided as their taste is
rancid. In this case, it is enough to remove them; the rest of the butter is edible.

BUTTER IN THE WORLD

India, which produces and consumes more butter than any other nation in the
the world dedicates almost half of its milk production to the making of its butter
called ghee. In 1997, India produced 1,470,000 metric tons of
butter, consuming most of its own production. In the second
the United States was in first place (522,000 tons), followed by France (466
000), Germany (442,000), and New Zealand (307,000). In terms of consumption,
Germany is in second place behind India, using 578,000 tons of
butter in 1997, followed by France (528,000), Russia (514,000), and the United States
United (505,000). Most nations produce and consume what their industry

There are different varieties of butter around the world. Smen is one.

traditional with sour milk instead of being made with cream.
