Non-fat dry milk is the residual product obtained post-removal of fat and water from milk. Retaining the same composition of lactose, milk proteins, and minerals as fresh milk, it contains less than 5% moisture content, rendering it a dried, shelf-stable product.
The two primary types of non-fat dry milk include spray-dried and roller-dried variations. Spray-dried non-fat dry milk undergoes a process where fluid milk is converted into a dry powder using a hot drying medium. This method ensures rapid water removal, enhancing yield while preventing the crystallization of lactose, thereby preserving nutritional integrity. It is categorized into high-heat, medium-heat, and low-heat variations, offering diverse options like almond, coconut, soy, and others. Serving residential and commercial end-users, its functionalities span browning, emulsification, foaming, water binding, and flavor enhancement.
