Is it normal for clumps in milk powder? Will it affect the nutrition of milk powder?

Abnormal. Sometimes the milk powder is damp, and the degree of moisture is different, and the hardness of the agglomeration is also different. It will lead to the loss of nutrients in the milk powder, which is not very recommended in this case. After all, the baby's nutritional requirements are still relatively high.

Normal, no, as long as it's not expired, it's fine.

I think that if the milk powder is fast, we need to look at the shelf life of the milk powder, and we need to ask the manufacturer, I think this may affect the nutrition of the milk powder, we should pay attention to it the next time we buy.

It won't affect it, Bao Ma can go to the Mommy Circle on the National Mother to take a look, there are many Bao Moms sharing their experience with babies, which will definitely help you.

Milk powder clumping is generally divided into normal clumping and abnormal clumping.

Normal causes of clumping of milk powder:

Normal causes of clumping of milk powder:

Although infant formula is powdered on the outside, it actually contains a certain amount of water. Due to factors such as the production process, it is basically impossible to produce 100% water-free milk powder, and a reasonable moisture content can also help maintain the quality of milk powder. In the process of milk powder transportation, the powdered milk powder is shaken, small bumps, and the water molecules will be slightly aggregated and compressed under the vibration, which is easy to form a slight agglomeration.

Abnormal milk powder caking causes.

Abnormal milk powder caking causes.

It is mostly caused by the clumping phenomenon caused by the moisture of the milk powder. After being damp, the nutrients in the milk powder are lost and denatured, and they can no longer be given to the baby. Improper access and storage is an important cause of moisture in milk powder.

Some mothers use a milk powder spoon to scoop out the milk powder in the milk tank when making milk powder for the baby, and when pouring the milk powder into the milk bottle, the milk powder spoon is stretched into the milk bottle, which is easy to touch the water, and then directly put the milk powder spoon into the milk tank, so that the water transfer is formed, and over time, the milk powder will inevitably be damp.

In addition, if the milk powder can is often placed next to the sink during preparation, it is also easy to get the milk powder wet.

After opening, the milk powder is stored in the refrigerator, and the milk powder is easy to deteriorate due to moisture.

Can you still drink milk powder if it is lumpy? In general, when the taste and color have not changed, be sure to consume it as soon as possible. But if we find that there are sticky hair, hard hair, clumps, and clumps are not easy to crush. It is not recommended to give it to the baby.

Milk powder is the baby's ration, and parents will be very careful when choosing milk powder, and usually buy milk powder with a better reputation and more nutritious. Sometimes it is found that the milk powder is clumped, so why does the milk powder clumps?

Why does milk powder clump.

In the process of compression and transportation of milk powder, due to collision, condensation and a certain amount of moisture in the milk powder itself, agglomeration may occur, but these lumps will disperse as long as they are gently shaken and shaken, and they are easily soluble in water, and they can also be drunk in this case. If the milk powder is relatively large and hard, it is difficult to break it up, and it is difficult to dissolve, because the milk powder contains lactose, which is easy to absorb water and coagulate, which may be that the milk powder is not sealed well before opening or stored in a humid place after opening, so that the milk powder is damp, deteriorated or has expired, so do not drink it.

Is the milk powder clumpy spoiled?

Spoiled milk powder will clump, but not all clumped milk powder will spoil. Some milk powder in the process of transportation, due to the effect of the first will lead to slight agglomeration, after opening the package gently shake can be directly dispersed, after the correct preparation will not have obvious granular formation, such agglomeration is a normal phenomenon, does not affect the nutritional value of milk powder, you can continue to feed the child. If the milk powder is placed in the refrigerator for a long time after opening, or stored in other excessively humid environments, resulting in the milk powder inhaling too much water and clumping, such clumped milk powder is spoiled milk powder.

The nutrients in it are obviously lost, the nutritional value is reduced, and it is no longer suitable for feeding children.

How to deal with milk powder clumps.

White sugar can help to completely dissolve the milk powder. When making milk powder, you can add a small amount of sugar, before adding water, stir the sugar and milk powder evenly, and then add an appropriate amount of water, then you can completely wash the milk powder without leaving lumps. Milk powder is rich in protein, and when the protein encounters high calories, it will condense into "protein lumps", which are the "small milk lumps" that you usually see.

When sugar is dissolved, it needs to absorb a lot of heat, and when it is completely dissolved, the water temperature is greatly reduced, and after the water temperature is reduced, the protein will not condense into a "small milk lump", that is, it can be completely dissolved.

Production method of milk powder.

Some designs use vacuum evaporation tanks to condense the milk into a cake shape and then dry it for milling; In some designs, the milk that has been preliminarily concentrated is spread on a heated drum, and the thin film is peeled off and then powdered. But the best way to make milk powder is the spray method, which was invented by the American Parcy in 1877. This method is to vacuum concentrate the milk to 1 4 of the original volume to become concentrated milk, and then spray it into a drying chamber with hot air in the form of a mist, dehydrate it and make it into powder, and then quickly cool it and sieve it, and then it can be packaged as a finished product.

This approach is still used today. Its birth promoted the development of milk powder manufacturing in the early 20th century.
