Homogenization is generally processes that can be termed as “Dairy spoilage type. Pasteurization kills all used in reconstitution of milk and fat rich Processes”. Dairy processing is an industrial pathogens and most of the spoilage type products like ice cream, condensed milk, operation in which milk components are of microorganisms.

Pasteurization may be done from all types of microorganisms to prevent Cooling: Milk secreted in the udder by two methods – Low Temperature Long spoilage.

    College of Agricultural Engineering and Technology Dept. of Agricultural Processing and Food Engineering Course : Dairy and Food Engineering Chapter 4 RECEPTION OF MILK (Milk reception in cans, Receiving section for bulk milk, Milk transport tank, Storage tank, Process tank, Standardization of milk) MILK RECEPTION IN THE CANS Milk is received in the processing plant from the primary producers or the milk collection centers. Usually they are transported by cans or bulk containers (milk transport tanks or vans). Fig. 4.1 Milk can (usual capacity 20-40 litres) • The first stage of reception involves emptying of cans over the tip tank or weigh tank. Emptying cans over the tip-tank can be done either by hand, or by hand assisted method or by mechanical methods (inverter). The process of inversion may be a serious source of contamination of the tipped milk by soil from can exteriors. • In some canneries, the can is not completely inverted (the base of can is never directly above the surface of milk). • After weighing and recording of consignment, the contents are discharged into a tank immediately below the tip-tank, from which the milk is pumped through a cooler to a storage tank. • Where milk is measured volumetrically, the cans are tipped directly to the tip tank from which milk is pumped to the cooler. 2 Fig. 4.2 Weigh tank Fig. 4.3 Arrangement of tanks in milk reception section Fig. 4.4 Bulk milk Coolers The following approach is done for the mechanization of milk reception sections of dairy plants. • Power driven or gravity roller conveyors are used for conveying of the milk cans.

Recent years have witnessed a large increase in the market penetration of special types of milk into the total fluid milk market. In India, there is great seasonal fluctuation in the production of milk on account of which many milk plants have to run below their installed capacity, particularly during the lean season. Besides, the cost of whole milk generally remains very high throughout the year. Production of recombined milk and low fat toned milk have greatly helped in extending the market supply and reducing the cost of milk to the consumers.

G. Department of Dairy Technology, S. M. C. College of Dairy Science, Anand Agricultural University, Anand – 388 110, Gujarat State, India. Accepted 21 November, 2011 Milk is considered to be a wholesome food. Any food product made out of milk will obviously be highly nutritious. However, milk per se has certain limitations like allerginicity, lactose intolerance, cholesterol, saturated fat content, etc. With advancement in technology, several dairy derived ingredients are being produced that when used in conjunction with other food ingredients in food manufacture can yield ‘value-added’ products that have balanced nutrition, and exhibiting superior functionalities as well as ‘wellness’ in food application. This implicates the synergy of dairy with other food ingredients/products; such combination exhibits effects that are probably not obtained when either ingredient is used singly. Typical examples are products derived from a blend of milk and vegetable milk; Mozzarella cheese as pizza topping; milk crumb for milk chocolate; blend of vegetable oil and milk fat for Fat spreads; milk solids in baked goods; blend of milk, barley and wheat flour in Malted milk food and so on. The food products encompassing dairy and non-dairy ingredients include; filled milk and milk products, cheese analogues, gulabjamun mix powders, fruited yoghurts, etc. Literature pertaining to some popular traditional Indian sweetmeats which utilizes other valued food ingredients has also been reviewed.

Processing generally involves boiling, addition of sugar and/or condiments, dilution with water, etc. The boiled milk is stored for subsequent use either at room temperature or under refrigerated conditions. Objective: The purpose of this study was to see the effect of household practices on the nutritional profi le of milk. Materials and Methods: Different types of pasteurized milk samples: standardized, double toned, full cream, and unpasteurized milk were analyzed. The effect of household practices on the nutritional profi le of all these milk samples was studied using National/International methods. Results: Boiling of milk increased the concentration of most of the components and minerals except for vitamins A, B3, B5, and B12 where the decrease observed was 21%, 13%, 3%, and 21%, respectively. Addition of water decreased the concentration of minerals and vitamins. Addition of sugar increased the energy and condiments increased total solids, carbohydrate and minerals content but led to a decrease in the vitamin content. Storage of milk led to a decrease in total solids by 19% and vitamins A, B3, B5, and B12 by 26%, 17–19%, 23%, and 18–26%, respectively.

  • GUIDELINES for COMPLEMENTARY FEEDING After Completion of 6 Months, Breast Milk Alone Is Not Sufficient to Meet the Baby’S Requirements
    GUIDELINES FOR COMPLEMENTARY FEEDING After completion of 6 months, breast milk alone is not sufficient to meet the baby’s requirements. Solid feeds i.e. complementary feeds must be gradually introduced into the infant’s diet. Do not delay the introduction of complementary feeds. General instructions Include adequate food supplements to the infant’s diet starting from 6 months of age in addition to continuing breastfeeding. Introduce only one food at a time. A single-ingredient food to be chosen and introduced at weekly intervals. Persist with the feed started till the baby starts accepting. The baby may spit the food initially and then start accepting the feed. It may take a week or 10 days for the baby to get used to and start accepting one complementary feed. Give very small amounts of any new food at the beginning. Begin with small quantities, gradually increasing the quantity. Use a very thin consistency when starting solid foods and but gradually increase it to semi-solid (porridge) consistency and then move over to solids. To provide more calories from smaller volumes, food must be thick in consistency – thick enough to stay on the spoon without running off, when the spoon is tilted. Observe hygienic practices while preparing and feeding the complementary feeds. Avoid using commercial feeds for the baby. Complementary foods based on the age of the Infant 7th Month 8th & 9th Months 10 – 12 Months Staple Food Rice feed Continue previous foods Continue previous Uggu Uggu with vegetable foods Porridge made Rice flakes Curd rice, from
