Concentrated skim milk refers to skim milk that has undergone a process to reduce its water content and concentrate the milk solids. It provides a concentrated source of the proteins, vitamins, and minerals found in skim milk.

Description of raw materials used in production.

• The primary raw material for producing skim milk is skim milk, sourced from cows.

Step-by-step summary of the industrial production process.

• Start with skim milk as the base.
• The skim milk is then heated in an evaporator under vacuum to remove some of the water, thereby increasing the concentration of solids.
• The process can be repeated multiple times to achieve the desired concentration.
• Once the desired concentration is achieved, the product is cooled and packaged.

Concentrated skim milk has a thicker consistency compared to regular skim milk and a similar but slightly darker color due to the higher concentration of solids.

Commercial applications.

Skim milk is consumed as a beverage, used in cooking and baking, and serves as a base for products like skim yogurt, ice cream, and low-fat cheeses.
