Warm milk, often enjoyed for its comforting properties, is a perishable dairy product that requires careful handling to maintain its freshness and safety. Proper storage is crucial to prevent spoilage and ensure the best flavor and nutritional value.
Storage Time
Once cooled, store in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Do not store warm milk at room temperature for more than 2 hours.
Temperature
Refrigerate promptly at 0–4°C (32–40°F) once it has cooled down.
Signs of Spoilage
- Sour or off odor, distinct from its usual milky scent.
- Thickening or curdling of the milk, indicating bacterial growth.
- Visible mold growth or discoloration.
