13177 Hypersonic February 7, 2019 Share February 7, 2019 I seldom buy the 2L ones. There's a plastic taste to the milk. I had that plastic taste twice in a row, I've had it with farmhouse and now HL milk. So now always milk carton. There's always milk in my fridge and it's very obvious. Cos i can even compare it to the remaining milk of the paper carton. I only like HL milk. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tianmo Hypersonic February 7, 2019 Author Share February 7, 2019 my microwave lowest power. Heat up 1 standard cup of cold milk (maybe 250mls) only takes 1 min - 1:10. As in drinkable hot. 2 mins a bit too long bah. Maybe this batch is not homogenised as well, so the milk curdles more easily. mine is quite an old machine liao, usually 3 min will be piping hot, 2 min is a little warmer, 1 min will just bring it from chill to room temp. The fact that my fridge is very cold could be another reason. I googled and there can be quite a few reasons to it, storage, transportation and not pasteurized properly could be the main issues. I also took notice of the thing about the present of acidic compound, so i tested with 3 different packs (of the same batch), in a cup and a bowl in the microwave, and a metal pan over the stove with small fire. Same result, and one of the pack is a half pack, which i opened yesterday morning, the same milk didnt have this issue yesterday. So I conclude its the milk itself. I just bought 2 packs of Marigold, which has a use by date 8 days from now, later I will go try again see what happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tianmo Hypersonic February 7, 2019 Author Share February 7, 2019 duno why the same batch of fresh milk, those packed in 1 litre paper carton (1 month) has longer shelf life than those 2 litre packed in plastic bottle (less than 3 weeks). vs so i usually buy 2 litre with shorter shelf life so that it won't stay for too long and turn bad. We usually finish 1L pack in 2 days, and I used to buy the 2L bottles. But they say its better to finish asap and good to use 1L because the other 1L is kept fresh until its open lor...

Tianmo Hypersonic February 7, 2019 Author Share February 7, 2019 I'm no expert. But probably, it's a difference in homogenisation, which allows the milk to curdle more easily. Or somehow there's an acidic solution somewhere which makes it curdle more easily. I just heat up a cup from the marigold I just bought with a use by date 15 Feb 19, the same way i do it every morning, including this morning. Just drank it , so I am now very convince the issue is with the milk... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mersaylee Hypersonic February 7, 2019 Share February 7, 2019 I do agree. Anyway i read that beside storage and transportation, not fully pasteurized could be one of the cause too. But what make it wonder is could F&N be aware of the issue with this batch? I usually buy in even numbers, but recently started buying in odd numbers because we are drinking more. I notice that those 3 in a pack usually are of a older batch compare to the individuals, but this batch they pack the newest date, which is 1 MAR 19 into the bag, the rest on the shelf expires on 27 FEB. First time I come across this arrangement, and it actually did make me wonder before I picked up the bag. You neber diy repack or ask for repack when the promoter is around? I very aunty (read leaned from wifey) type one... No three packs combo are of different dates one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily1986 5th Gear February 7, 2019 Share February 7, 2019 the carton format features double sealing. The cap and also the pull out tab. The meiji PE bottle only have single sealing. duno why the same batch of fresh milk, those packed in 1 litre paper carton (1 month) has longer shelf life than those 2 litre packed in plastic bottle (less than 3 weeks). vs so i usually buy 2 litre with shorter shelf life so that it won't stay for too long and turn bad.

Ender Hypersonic February 7, 2019 Share February 7, 2019 Take noted. If you have F&N magnolia fresh milk 1L pack, with label use by "01 MAR 19, 03:51", go do a heat up test before giving it to your children. I bought 3 packs from Sheng Siong Jalan bahar last week. This morning when I heated up a glass in the microwave, it turned tau huay, and this is from the same pack with no issue yesterday morning. I opened up a new pack and same thing happened, the last pack also same after heating up. Thinking that it may be my microwave, I tried heating over the stove, and tau huay was made again. The temp of the fridge is the same and the fridge is not fill up, the only thing added was some drinks (we didnt stock up much food this year). I googled and the return was not very positive, and so i wrote an email to F&N this morning asking them to look into the batch. Meanwhile, those who have this batch of milk, take note. However they look, smell and taste quite normal when chill, but I am still not going to consume them. Now have to go pick up some new stock liao, not from the same brand tho. rps20190207_074701.jpg rps20190207_074733.jpg rps20190207_074916.jpg rps20190207_074943.jpg rps20190207_075025.jpg Looks like a new creation.

OIC ...... learning new things ....Last time I kenna with butter .... I think it was Buttercup or some brand like that always cheaper ( always a lot one) than even NTUC brand ..... later came to know that it’s actually margarine or equivalent and they use the word Cream on it and the brand ButterCup makes it even more confusing some more 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
