He rates the taste of each batch on a scale of 1 to 10. The cube plot below shows the taste rating he has given each experiment: a. Superimpose contour lines on this cube plot. b. What is the average effect of the fat content of the starter yoghurt? c. What is the average effect of the time to ferment (time of bacterial activity)? 6.
