Try a Health Food shop or you can order it online from Simply Junket.

Re: Junket!!
Hi All
Just been asked to prepare junket prac -temp. Never used junket before. I have been asked for a junket solution, beakers, test tubes,thermometers, water baths and no method. Needed in half an hour.
My question is for this prac "Should the junket solution be one tablet dissolved in 1 tbsp cold water? OR one tablet dissolved in 1 tbsp cold water and warm milk?" as on packet instructions.
Can get milk from canteen and already have tablets.
Please help!

Re: Junket!!
I just use cold water. The prac requires them to use it at different temp so if you make it too warm it changes the results for the cold temp experiment. Actually, sometimes I just give them the powder and they mix it up as a class solution in a 50ml beaker. They only need a few drops each in each test tube of milk.

Re: Junket!!
Oh, and don't add it to the milk! Just give them a concentrated solution in water. They will need milk, and the milk needs to be heated to the required temps BEFORE the junket is added.

Re: Junket!!
Yes, the enzyme prac. is here again for the new Year 12's.
I found all the supermarkets (let the fingers do the walking!!) now stock junket tablets. IGA was the only one to sell the powder.
Powder was $10.51 and tablets was $3.49.

Re: Junket!!
To follow on with the thread. Yesterday I used 40mls of room temperature distilled water and 4g.of the powder.For those of you who only have tablets, I think I crushed 3 tablets in 40/60 mls of water. I am not at school at the moment so can't look it up.There is no reaction with this solution(until it is heated!) so it will keep for a few days. Hope this is of help to some of you who perhaps are reasonably new in the job.

Re: Junket!!
We use the powder as we go through rather a lot each year as the action of temperature is used as an individual assessment task for our Yr 12.
We have had up to 60 bio students each needing their own little jar. We found the powder worked out cheaper in the long run for us and lasts several years.
I have measured out 1/4 teaspoon (.7 grams, about the weight of a tablet) into separate 50 ml specimin jars, to this they add 50 mls water and then use 1 ml of the junket solution in 10 mls of milk. Usually they do about 6 different temperature and 3 or 4 test tubes at each temperature so there is way enough solution in each jar with some to spare.
The powder/water solution keeps for several days as they need to do the assessment task over at least 2 lessons to get enough runs and variables.

Re: Junket!!
We have given up on the junket prac - we now use yeast solution - soak filter paper 'confetti' with it and use those for the pracs.. or potatoes..
so much easier..
so much easier..

Re: Junket!!
Does anyone know if the powder has a use by date? I need to purchase some more and it works out much cheaper long-term to buy the 150g ($62.50 incl postage) bag than the 10g vials (x2 $14.20 incl postage) but there is no use buying it in bulk if it will stop working before we use it up. 20g has lasted us about 3 years I think, maybe 4, so 150g would last us a very long time! Otherwise, if any local (Tamworth) labbies are interested in sharing a bag (50g each?) that might work too...
Re: Junket!!
We have been getting our junket from Franklins and was told it was kept at the front desk because the container is so small people were stealing it!!
Re: Junket!!
Wonder what on earth they think they're getting when they steal it??people were stealing it!
Cheers, K
