Milk and Milk Products
Milk is a balanced established basic food because of its nutrients and biological value in human nutrition.
It is a good source of high quality protein, calcium, phosphorus apart from riboflavin and other B-vitamins. The calcium
and phosphorus of milk are well utilized by the body. Milk protein has a biological value of 90 per cent.
Lysine is one of the essential amino acids, which is abundant in milk proteins. Cheese, khoa and milk powders are in
concentrated forms hence containing high amount of nutrients per unit.
The unique milk sugar lactose, which is made up of glucose and galactose. Galactose is which is essential for the synthesis
of myelin sheath. Lactose, not being easily digestible in the stomach favours the growth of lactic acid bacilli in the
intestine, which decreases the pH. This drop in pH favour calcium absorption and non survival of pathogenic micro
organisms. Lactose also increases the permeability of the small intestine for calcium ions.
The milk fat adds specific odour and palatability to milk and is easily digestible. It contains important fatty acids like
linoleic acid (2.1%), linolenicacid (0.5%) and arachidonic acid(0.14%). By using cream separator , cream and skim milk
can be collected. Skim milk contains only less than 0.5 % fat. Buffalo milk contains high amount of fat.

Milk collection
Milk collection is often one of the first activities of milk producer groups. Once the milk from several group members is
collected in a central location, the milk can be processed or transported to processing centres or markets. Milk should be
collected within four hours of milking.
starting a milk collection centre
A decision should be made on the number and sites of collection centres that are needed in the area covered by the group.
Many factors influence this decision:

STANDARDIZATION OF MILK
Standardization of milk refers to the adjustment, i.e.
raising or lowering, of the fat and/or solids-not-fat
percentages of milk to a desired value, so as to conform
to the legal or other requirements prescribed. Milk is
standardized by the addition of milk or cream with a
higher or lower fat percentage than that of the material
to be standardized; sometimes the addition of skim milk
will fulfill the purpose.
Standardization method may involve batch processing
or continuous processing
1) In batch processing Pearson’s square method may be used to calculate the volumes of whole milk and
skim milk/cream needed and the two can be simply mixed to yield the required product.
2) Continuous standardization system consists of a cream separator with in-line densitometer at the skim milk
and cream outlets.
• Whole milk is fed to the separator and, with careful control of the cream and skim milk
fat contents and measurements of the flow rates of the two streams, cream can be metered
back into the skim milk stream to yield standardized milk with the required fat level.
• To solve the standardization problem, it is necessary to find the relative amounts of the
original material and the standardizing material to be mixed together to give a product
with the desired fat content. Once these relative amounts/proportions have been
determined, it is easy to calculate the exact amount of each which must be mixed together
to give a certain weight of the finished product or the weight of milk or cream. There are
two calculation methods by which we can solve the standardization problems. (1)

The methods used for milk testing are usually related to the payment system adopted. The different methods for milk testing
are briefly described below, with an emphasis on simple and cost-effective methods. These focus on milk reception tests that
can be carried out at collection centres.
Quality testing
Milk testing for quality can be divided into testing for hygiene and for composition. You always have to balance between the
costs and benefits of the tests, because testing regularly can become very expensive! Make sure you always clean milk
testing equipment thoroughly after use: you can use boiling water for at least one minute, 70% alcohol, or keep the
equipment in a flame. Some examples of tests, in order of cost and simplicity are described below:
This should always be the first screening of the milk, since it is cheap, quick and does not require any equipment.
These tests are also called ’organoleptic tests‘. It is also reliable if the person carrying out the tests is experienced.
The tester smells the milk, observes the appearance, tastes if necessary, checks the can for cleanliness, looks for
sediment, and filters the milk to check its cleanliness. If doubts arise after the examination about the quality of the
milk, other tests can be done to determine the quality.
2. Density meter or lactometer test
With a lactometer the specific density of milk is measured. At 15 degrees Celsius, the normal
density of the milk ranges from 1.028 to 1.033 g/ml, whereas water has a density of 1.0 g/ml. So
when you read the lactometer, you can determine whether water has been added to the milk.
• It is best to combine the lactometer reading with the fat test: if the results of the fat test are low
and the density is high (e.g. 1.035), then the milk might have been skimmed. If the results of
the fat test are low and the density is low (e.g. 1.027), then water might have been added to the
milk. You can use the lactometer reading together with the fat percentage to estimate the Solids Lactometer test
Non Fat (SNF) content of the milk.
3. Alcohol test
If the milk is sour or if the milk is abnormal (colostrum or mastitis milk) the milk will not pass the
alcohol test. You carry out the test by mixing equal amounts (2 ml) of milk and a 68% ethanol solution
(made by mixing 68 ml of 96% alcohol with 28 ml distilled water). Milk that contains more than 0.21%
acid will coagulate when alcohol is added.
The clot-on-boiling test is simple, quick and cheap. If the milk is sour or if the milk is abnormal (colostrum or mastitis milk) the milk will
not pass this test. Place test tubes with 5 ml of milk for up to 4 minutes in boiling water or in a flame. Examine the tubes and reject the
milk if you can see the milk clotting. Please note that at high altitude milk boils at a lower temperature. This test is not very sensitive to
slightly sour milk and an alternative is the alcohol test.
• Organoleptic Test: Milk consumers judge the quality of the product by the flavour (smell and taste) and
appearance of milk. Therefore, organoleptic test is of obvious importance at a market milk plant. Each can of
milk should be carefully examined by the sense of smell before the milk is dumped, those with objectionable
odours should be rejected. It is not practical to taste each can but in special cases, tasting is necessary. It is
desirable to verify one's judgment by tasting in the case of bitter and certain weed flavours. The sense of smell
will not detect such flavours it is, therefore, necessary to taste the milk. An experienced person can pick out such
samples of milk with a fair degree of accuracy. Thus, this test involves visual observation, smelling and tasting of
milk.

What is Butter?
• In the context of processing dairy products, butter is a dairy
product made from the fat or cream of milk. It is primarily
composed of butterfat, milk proteins, and water.
Pasteurization
Ripening
Churning
Packaging
Separation of Cream:- Butter is made from cream, which is obtained by separating it from milk.
The cream can be obtained through various methods such as gravity separation or centrifugal
separation.
Ripening:- After pasteurization, the cream is allowed to ripen for a certain period. Ripening
helps develop the flavor and aroma of the butter. During this stage, lactic acid bacteria are
added to the cream to initiate fermentation, which contributes to the development of the
characteristic butter flavor.
Churning:- The ripened cream is then subjected to churning. Churning is the process of
agitating the cream vigorously to separate the fat from the liquid portion. This can be done
using various methods such as traditional hand churning, mechanical churns, or continuous
butter-making machines.
Butter Granules Formation:- As the cream is agitated, the fat globules in the cream coalesce
to form larger fat granules. These granules separate from the liquid portion, known as
buttermilk. The churning process continues until the granules of butterfat come together, and
the butterfat separates completely from the buttermilk.
Washing and Working:- Once the butter granules are formed, they are washed with cold
water to remove any residual buttermilk. Washing helps improve the quality and shelf life of
the butter. The butter is then worked or kneaded to remove excess moisture and to improve
its texture. During working, salt may also be added for flavor enhancement, although
unsalted butter is also available.
Packaging:- The final step involves packaging the butter for distribution and storage. It is
typically wrapped in foil or wax paper and may be shaped into blocks, rolls, or tubs,
depending on the desired packaging format.
Other Butter Making Methods
Continuous butter making method:-
It is done by using continuous butter making machines like

Butter Defects
I. Rancidity: Butter can develop a rancid flavor and odor when it undergoes oxidation due to
exposure to light, air, or high temperatures. This can happen during storage or if the butter is
kept for an extended period.
II. Off-flavors and odors: Butter can acquire off-flavors and odors if it comes into contact with
other strongly flavored or odorous substances. It can absorb flavors from nearby foods or
absorb odors from the storage environment.
III. Freezer burn: If butter is not properly packaged or stored in the freezer, it can develop freezer
burn. Freezer burn occurs when moisture evaporates from the butter, leading to dry spots,
discoloration, and changes in texture.
IV. Mottled appearance: Butter can sometimes have a mottled or uneven appearance, with
variations in color and texture. This can occur due to factors like temperature fluctuations
during storage, improper mixing or processing during production, or variations in fat content.

Equipments used & Benefits of ghee
Introduction
Ghee is a form of clarified butter that is made by simmering butter to
remove water content and separating the milk solids. The result is a clear,
golden liquid with a rich, nutty flavor. Ghee has been a staple in Indian
cooking
It is known for its high smoke point, longer shelf life, and distinctive taste,
making it a versatile cooking fat used in various culinary applications.
Composition
The composition of ghee primarily consists of fats, with a small percentage of other
components. Here's a general breakdown of the composition of ghee:
Fats: Approximately 99% of ghee is composed of fats. These fats are a mix of
saturated fats, monounsaturated fats, and polyunsaturated fats.
Water: Ghee is made by removing the water content from butter during the
clarification process. As a result, ghee contains very little water, typically less than
0.5%.
Milk Solids: The process of making ghee involves separating the milk solids from the
butter. The remaining milk solids in ghee are minimal, usually less than 1%.

INTRODUCTION
• Milk plays a significant role as a source of animal protein in the average Indian
diet which is predominantly vegetarian.
• Nearly half of the milk produced in India (50- 55%) is utilized for the manufacture of
traditional milk products and approximately 45.7% is used as fluid milk.
• Only about 20% of the total milk produced is processed by the organized dairy sector.
• Conversion of surplus milk into indigenous milk products in and around production areas is
least expensive and more profitable.
• A large proportion of the milk is converted into indigenous dairy products such as khoa, chhana,
paneer and khoa and chhana based sweets.
• Total Production in India: 176 Million Tonnes (2017)
• Total percapita availability: 375 g/day
• • Simple manufacturing technologies which are well established for small-scale operations.

• Quality of milk - Milk must be fresh and free from off falvour. Growth of
psycrotrophic organisms should be minimized to restrict the off-flavour
development. Acidic milk having a titratable acidity of more than 0.20% lactic
acid yields a product of inferior quality
• Type, Strength and Temperature of Coagulant - Citric acid is generally used as a
coagulant. Lemon or lime juice or vinegar imparts a typical flavour to the product. 1%
solution of citric acid yields good quality of paneer. Sufficient acid is added gently but
quickly blended with the milk (within one min) to reach optimum pH of coagulation.
Normally 1.8 to 2.0 kg citric acid is required for coagulating 1000 L of milk. High acid
concentration imparts acidic flavour, hardness and causes greater solids loss. Whey
cultured with Lactobacillus acidophilus at a level of 2% and incubated overnight at 37°C
can be used as a substitute for citric acid. However acidic whey must be heat treated to
destroy these lactic organisms before use to prevent loss of shelf life of paneer.

PANEER IN BUFFALO VS COW MILK
• Cow milk yields an inferior product in terms of body and texture. It is criticized
to be too soft, weak and fragile and unsuitable for frying and cooking.
• By replacing one third of buffalo milk with cow milk, a good quality paneer can
be made.
• Buffalo milk paneer retains higher fat, protein and ash content and lactose as
compared to cow milk paneer
• By replacing one third of buffalo milk with cow milk, a good quality paneer
can be made.
