🗑
standardization of milk   show
🗑
show · heating milk below boiling point (~101C) for short time · two objectives: 1. destroy nearly 100% of pathogenic bacteria/yeasts/molds and 95-99% of nonpathogenic bacteria 2. inactivate many of the enzymes causing off flavors and rancidity (lipases)  
🗑
show · low-temp long-time: 145F/63C for 30min · high-temp short-time: 161F/72C for 15sec: denatures less proteins (cheese making), higher temp if other solids added (boiling point up)  
🗑
show · higher-temp shorter-time: 190-270F/88-132C for <2sec, higher pressure, measure exposure by rate of flow · ultrapasteurization: 280F/138C for >2sec, extends shelf life but needs refirgeration  
🗑
pasteurization types (3)   show
🗑
does pasteurization damage milk's quality in any way?   show
🗑
what size are the fat globules in milk?   show
🗑
show · purpose: disrupt fat globules so >98% are 2µm in diameter and milk has no visible separation after 48hrs at 4-7C · homogenizers: usually piston-type pumps that force milk through 1 or 2 valves · fat must be in liquid form (>140F/60C) and pasteurized

🗑

🗑
show · bacteria requires: 41-45C incubation temps, ratio of 1:1 to 1:3 of La. bulgaricus : S. thermophilus · incubation can take up to 8hrs: longer time -> smoother gel, final pH varies from 3.8-4.4  
🗑
show · phase 1: temp-dependent dissociation of proteins from casein micelles · phase 2: acid induced gellation between pH 5.4-4.9 -> reassociation of casein proteins into colloidal particles · phase 3: rapid aggreggation of colloidal casein micelles into gel
