Why do goat milk powder have hard lumps?

Use a spoon to gently push the lump to see if it can spread out naturally, if it can spread out, there is no problem, you can eat it with confidence. Because the content of unsaturated fatty acids in goat milk powder is relatively high, it is very similar to breast milk, so goat milk powder looks more humid, followed by milk powder in the process of long-distance transportation because of the collision is easy to produce static electricity, milk powder particles are easy to adsorb together to form this soft pseudo-agglomeration, but if the agglomeration is hard and large, it is more difficult to pinch and disperse, and there is a peculiar smell, it may be spoiled, it is recommended not to give the baby to drink, so as not to have diarrhea, it is best to discard.

First of all, let's understand the reasons for the clumping of goat milk powder:

Slight clumping is normal.

It is normal for lumps in the milk powder to loosen up if you press or touch them lightly with a milk spoon. It is because of the friction of powdered items in the transportation process, the gap between the particles becomes smaller, and static electricity is generated between the milk powder particles, which forms loose huddles and adherence or slight agglomeration with vibration, but it does not affect the quality of milk powder and can be given to the baby.

Agglomerates due to moisture.

If there is a lump after half use, it may be caused by moisture absorption of the milk powder. It is likely that when soaking milk powder, parents do not seal or cover it in time, and the lactose in the milk powder absorbs moisture into the air and causes clumping. In addition, if the spoon has water on the spoon or water droplets on the hand, it will also cause the milk powder to be damp and clumpy if it comes into contact with the milk powder in the bottle.

Therefore, the milk powder should be sealed in time after opening the can, and the drying of the milk powder spoon should be paid attention to.

Improper storage leads to clumping.

If the milk powder is hard to form a lump, it may be related to improper storage of the milk powder, such as placing it in the refrigerator, or storing it at a high temperature or humidity, which can easily lead to frosting or frosting of the milk powder, resulting in the phenomenon of milk powder clumping.

There are two reasons for milk powder agglomeration, one is because during transportation, the milk powder particles collide together due to static electricity, and the phenomenon of agglomeration occurs, which is a normal phenomenon, and the milk powder can will fall apart with a gentle push or shake with a spoon; Another situation is that the milk powder is damp, if the milk powder is not easy to disperse the hard lumps, as well as rough to the touch, uneven particles, it may be due to improper storage environment caused by the milk powder water absorption and moisture, so it is not recommended to eat.

When the weather is hot, if the milk powder is exposed to a high-temperature environment for a long time during transportation and preservation, crystalline nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and carbohydrates will partially melt at high temperatures, and will stick to other nutrients after melting, and are prone to agglomeration.

Sometimes, we will find that the goat milk powder that has been opened at home will have clumps, and even some goat milk powder can see the clumps in it as soon as they are opened. The clumps of some goat milk powders are very "fragile" and will fall apart when touched lightly, while the clumps of some goat milk powders are very "firm". So, many people want to know, why does goat milk powder clump?

Because the content of unsaturated fatty acids in goat milk powder is relatively high, it is very similar to breast milk, so goat milk powder looks more humid, followed by milk powder in the process of long-distance transportation because of the collision is easy to produce static electricity, milk powder particles are easy to adsorb together to huddle, forming this soft pseudo-agglomeration, not able to disperse the case, feel a little wet and a little clumpy, with a spoon to gently touch can be dispersed there is no problem.

Once opened, it can easily become wet, clumpy and even deteriorate due to the humid environment around it. Therefore, the opened milk powder should be sealed and stored to avoid clumping caused by moisture. In addition, many parents will think that putting milk powder in the refrigerator can "keep it fresh", but in fact, it will make it easier for the milk powder to clump, because the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the refrigerator is large, and frequently taking it out in the refrigerator and opening it and putting it back back will make it easier for the milk powder to absorb moisture in the air.

In fact, it is generally written on the milk powder cans that it is best not to eat the milk powder one month after it is opened. The nutrients contained in the baby milk powder are relatively rich, and the opening time is long, and the milk powder inside is easy to get wet, and the nutrients are easy to lose or even deteriorate. At the same time, if the opening time is too long, the milk powder will absorb a lot of water, resulting in the expiration and deterioration of the milk powder, and it is also easy to be infected by bacteria, which is also harmful to the baby's health.

Therefore, it is best to drink milk powder within a month, and it is best not to consume it for more than a month.

Light can destroy the nutrients of milk powder such as vitamins, so keep milk powder away from light. In addition, it should be noted that the expiration date on the milk powder can refers to the edible date before the milk powder is opened, and once the milk powder is opened, this date can no longer be used as the shelf life of the milk powder.

Hello, how to deal with goat milk powder lumps Gently push the lumps with a spoon to see if they can spread out naturally, if they can spread out, there is no problem, you can rest assured that you can eat the grind. Because the content of unsaturated fatty acids in goat milk powder is relatively high, it is very similar to the mother's milk, so the goat milk powder looks more humid, followed by the milk powder in the long-distance transportation process because <>of the collision is easy to produce static electricity, milk powder particles are easy to adsorb together to huddle, forming this soft pseudo-agglomeration, but if the agglomeration is hard and large, it is difficult to pinch and disperse, and there is a peculiar smell, it may be spoiled

When some people open their goat milk powder cans, they find that the milk powder inside is a little clumpy, which is different from the loose state of normal milk powder. Since the clumping of goat milk powder will affect its nutritional value, it is best for people to be able to figure out what the clumping of goat milk is.

If the goat milk powder is lumpy, it must not be drunk anymore, because it is no longer a normal situation. Normal goat milk powder will not have clumps, and goat milk powder should be loose and clear. If the goat milk powder is lumpy, it may be braided, or it may contain too much water in the goat milk powder and it is wet and agglomerate, or it may be clumped due to static electricity problems during transportation.

In addition to the last reason, other reasons that cause the roundup of goat milk powder will also cause changes in the nutrition of goat milk powder.

Therefore, after the clumping of goat milk powder occurs, you may wish to touch it carefully with chopsticks to see if the clumping goat milk powder can become loose. If the goat milk powder cannot become loose after clumping, it means that it is spoiled or has increased moisture, and the goat milk powder can no longer be drunk normally.

When people drink goat milk powder, they should grasp the time, generally speaking, goat milk powder should be drunk within a month of opening. Because in multiple opening and closing, goat milk powder will also enter the moisture, causing it to have a caking phenomenon.
