Weird that they don't talk about micro-filtered milk. It removes bacteria through filtration, tastes like regular milk, has a long shelf life and stays good for a good week in your fridge...
- matt_wulfeck 10y agoIf it tastes like regular milk (assuming you mean the pasteurized milk we drink in the US/Australia/NZ) what are the advantages over it? I regularly keep milk in my fridge much longer than a week.
- mathw 10y agoI've started buying microfiltered milk (am in the UK) because I've always had trouble with milk going off before I can use it all when buying ordinary pasteurised milk, but the microfiltered milk stays fresh plenty long enough to use it all up. On the bottle the stuff I buy say it's good for 7 days in the fridge after opening. Experience so far bears this out, whereas normal milk manages about 4 for me. It's entirely possible my fridge sucks, but I have checked the temperature and the milk comes out of the fridge at about 2C, so...
- srrr 10y agoIn fact most of the fresh milk sold in Germany is microflitrated. It is really hard to find old school pasteurized fresh milk nowadays in a normal supermarked. The microflitrated milk is named "Frischmilch - länger haltbar" (fresh milk - long life). Milk that is only pasteurized is named "Frischmilch - traditionell hergestellt" (fresh milk - traditionally crafted).
