All over the world cows, goats, sheep and
other mammals are industriously milked every day to provide us with a
whole range of dairy products. Children love it, and lots of 
grown-ups also enjoy a glass of creamy milk every now and again. But 
you can't let the milk get too hot. Otherwise it destroys the 
vitamins, and something forms on top that isn't tasty in the least - 
a skin. In entertaining episodes our Chemical Reporter answers 
questions of our Podcast listeners on Chemistry in our everyday life.
