Ever wonder what happens to milk to turn it into powder? This is what it looks like inside a special plant that freeze-dries milk. It’s a very cool process which is changing the dairy industry!
At the milk freeze drying plant of BOLAIKE, production of powdered milk beings with pasteurization of the milkd. This process ensures that the milk is drinking safe. And then, the milk is homogenized, or filtered, which breaks up the fat to smooth it. The milk is then pumped into a freeze dryer, where its solid content is frozen at extremely low temperatures.
Freeze drying the milk is one way of pulling out the moisture without pulling out the nutrients. And this wonderful technology allows milk to keep for a long time without refrigeration. That’s what makes it such an excellent food storage option. Freeze dried milk also has a longer shelf life than liquid milk, so folks tend to like it for emergency kits and camping.

Freeze drying milk involves three major steps: freezing, primary drying and secondary drying. First it rapidly cools the milk down to a very cold temperature, which turns the water to ice. During the primary drying phase, frozen water is removed as vapor under a vacuum. Then, in the secondary drying phase, any remaining water is taken out of the milk, thus yielding a dry, powdery milk.

There are many advantages of freeze dried milk for food storage. Unlike liquid milk, freeze dried milk doesn’t have moisture to spoil, so it has a longer shelf life. It also has a smaller footprint and a light weight, making it more portable and storable. And freeze dried milk retains all its nutrition such protein, calcium and vitamins, so it’s a healthy addition to your cooking and baking.
