Put cows’ milk in six test tubes. 2. Keep each test tube at a different temperature. 3. Measure the pH of the milk in each tube every day for 12 days. 4. Record the number of days taken to reach pH 5. 5. Repeat steps 1 to 4 with goats’ milk and with almond milk. 0 1 . 3 Give one way the pH can be measured.
