Freezing Milk – That’s How It Works

Freezing milk – you should pay attention to this

Only freeze milk if it has not expired. Tip: It is best to note on the package when you freeze the milk.

  • Since milk expands slightly in the freezer, the container should not be completely full. Otherwise, there is a risk that glass bottles will burst.
  • Frozen milk will keep for two to three months. After that, it loses flavor and spoils over time.

If you want to defrost the milk, this is best done directly in the refrigerator. Depending on the quantity, this can take a whole day.

  • If you need it faster, place the milk carton or container in a container of cold water. This will speed up the process by several hours.
  • The milk must be thawed slowly and gently. Never use warm water, the microwave, or direct sunlight.
  • Shake the milk vigorously before drinking to mix the fat back into the rest of the ingredients.
  • The thawed milk often tastes a little waterier or can appear a little lumpy due to the separation of the fat. That is normal. However, you should not store thawed milk for more than five days. Refreezing is also not recommended.
