Effect of storage conditions on stability of dried milkJ Roopavathy
Dried milk can last 15+ years if stored properly in sealed Mylar bags with oxygen absorbers and desiccants in a cool, dark place below 75 degrees Fahrenheit. However, dried milk stored in warm, moist conditions like cardboard packaging above 104 degrees Fahrenheit will spoil within 30 days. The storage temperature, oxygen levels, packaging, moisture levels, and light exposure all impact the shelf life of dried milk, with non-fat varieties typically lasting longer than full-fat milk, which is not suitable for long-term storage. Browning, clumping, changes in functionality, flavor, and hardening can occur if dried milk is exposed to high heat and moisture over long periods of storage.
The document discusses the process of chocolate production and tempering chocolate for molding and coating applications. Key steps include harvesting cocoa beans, fermenting and drying them, roasting, grinding into a paste, and pressing to separate cocoa butter and powder. Chocolate is produced by blending these ingredients with sugar and optionally milk, then conching and adding cocoa butter back. Tempering involves precisely heating and cooling chocolate to form stable crystal structures for a shiny appearance and snap. There are multiple tempering methods including seeding with pre-tempered chocolate. Molded chocolates are coated in molds then released once set.
Concentrated milks such as evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk are produced through processes like evaporation and membrane processing to remove water. This reduces weight and volume for easier transport and storage while extending shelf life. Concentrated milks are used to supplement fresh milk supply and in food manufacturing. Technological steps include milk standardization, heating, addition of sugar for condensed milk, concentration, cooling, and canning. Microbial defects include blown cans from gas production and thickening or curdling from bacterial growth. Non-microbial defects involve lactose crystallization or Maillard browning from excessive heating. Proper processing and storage are needed to prevent defects in concentrated milks.

Loss of Texture
Thin corners could
lead to:
– Exposed center
– Center may dry out
– Risk of premature
bloom
Dry inclusions/change
texture
Meltaways may need
to be tempered
11. #4 Fat Migration
Equilibrium –
Everything goes to a
balanced state
Center fats will rise to
surface-soften
chocolate and harden
center
Milk fat added to
prevent FormV to VI
12. #5 Oxidative Rancidity
High fat centers
susceptible to
rancidity
Exposed nuts will
bloom first
Causes a stale /
cardboard flavor
13. Manufacturing by
Hand or Factory Equipment
Conditions must be
maintained to
maximize shelf life
Properly tempered
chocolate
Mold design critical
Cooling tunnel
parameters critical
14. Enrobers
Curtain of Chocolate
Double enrobe if centers vulnerable
If cooled too Rapidly
– Chocolate could crack
If cooled too Slowly
– Discolor and soft
May emerge Later in Distribution Process
16. Tempering
Improperly tempered chocolate will
continue to stabilize
– May lead to softening and bloom
– May cause Lack of contraction
– Dull appearance
– Poor snap
– Longer setting times
17. Tempering Sequence

18. Tempering on a Marble Slab
Must temper properly to maximize shelf life
19. Solid Moulding
Improper designed
molds can lead to poor
quality –How intricate
are they?
Warm molds can delay
onset of crystallization
Cold molds can shock
chocolate forming
incorrect crystals
20. Enrobing
High Moisture center-
short shelf life
Centers too warm can
detemper chocolate
Uneven surfaces,
center could be
exposed
Viscosity alters
coverage rate and
could increase feet
21. Cooling
– Quality depends on how well products are
cooled, not just how long
– Properly zoned to Avoid Initial Over Cooling
and “Dew Point” effects as Product leaves
cooler
– Know tunnel temperatures at specific locations
– Long enough to give time for Adequate
Cooling
22. Cooling
– Chocolate and Compounds require different
cooling tunnel parameters
– Chocolate needs to be cooled gently with
moderate air
• 55-60F
– Compound are best cooled in cooler tunnels
because they spontaneously solidify in a stable
crystal form
• 40-45F
– All tunnels should increase to room temp at
exit to prevent condensation.
23. Cooling Tunnel Problems
Inadequate air blowing
Air “shadowing” of product
Over running tunnel
Too cold exit temperature, condensation,
sugar bloom
Lack of temperature probes in tunnel
Air conditioning coil drains become
clogged (high moistures in tunnel)
24. Packaging
Packaging types
influence stability
Goal is to keep flavor
and texture in and
moisture out
Moisture can cause
cracking of pretzels
Consult supplier
25. Packaging considerations
Heat sealing-be careful not to cause fat bloom
due to excessive heat
High Moisture pieces loose and trap moisture
– Wax paper is semi permeable
– an option for high moisture pieces that give off
moisture - fudge
Off odors can occur from inks and type of
packaging and also from where packaging is
stored
26. Shelf Life Testing
Robinson Test
20 cm X 20 cm Test
Material
15 g grated chocolate not
in contact
48 hrs in the Dark
20C(68F), 75% RH
Compare to Control
Approx equivalent to nine
months of shelf life
28. Storage Conditions
Temperature & Humidity
– Maintain correct temperatures to Allow
Coating to Stabilize
• Not too cool
• May inhibit Chocolate from crystallizing into
Stable Form
– Storage temperatures should be based on
expected shelf life
• For longer shelf life, use lower temperature and
humidity
29. Chocolate Storage
Constant temperature is best
Recommend 60-70°F, 50% RH max.
Free of all strong odors
Be particularly aware of “air conditioning” odors
First in — First Out stock rotation
Teach personnel how to read code dates
30. Storage Issues – Points to
Consider
If products stored too cold, condensation
could form creating sugar bloom
If Freezing candies to halt center oil
migration and preserve freshness, care
must be taken during rewarming
Compound Coatings more heat resistant
due to higher melt points
31. Moisture Absorption/ Flavor
Integrity in Storage
Type of chocolate or compound makes a
difference
– Dark << Milk << White
Issue of temperature and relative humidity
RH less than 50% highly recommended
Form is important -
– 10 lb. Bars << wafers or ribbons or chunks
Protect with packaging / air tight containers
33. Shipping Finished Goods
Beware of possible temperature problems
– Staging on warm docks (bloom from heat damage)
– Movement from cold room to warm humid dock
(condensation and sugar bloom)
– Loss of temperature control in shipment
During warm months refrigerated, sealed
containers would be required
Check temperature and humidity records
34. Distribution
Light in display cases can influence quality
– White chocolate susceptible to light-induced
degradation of flavor due to lack of antioxidants
– Exposed nuts would also be susceptible to light-
induced rancidity
Infestation
– Examine vehicles, keep temp. controlled
– Seal packages to deter insects from penetrating
packaging

36. Bloom Stability Potential
Hold samples at 30C for approx. 12 hrs
Hold samples at 20C for approx 12 hrs.
Continue this cycling until bloom is
observed
Assumption
– One Week of Cycling=One Month Shelf Life
42. Bloom
Fat Bloom
– Fat crystals on the
surface causing gray
appearance
Sugar Bloom
– Moisture condenses,
dissolves sugar and
dries on surface
causing a whitish film
43. Issue
Enrobers trap crumbs, nut pieces, tails
from centers
– These interact with the chocolate
– Lead to softening
– Affect flow properties
44. Remedies
The Solution?
– Include screeners in the process
– Position them before the chocolate is
subjected to high sheer mixing or pumping
stages
• This keeps the crumbs, etc., from being
homogenized in the chocolate
45. Oil Migration Remedies
The only solution is to slow the rate of oil
migration
– Non-fat ingredients
• Appear to slow migration
• Just an illusion
– Critical process considerations
– Use well-tempered chocolate coating to
produce the best crystalline matrix in a barrier
coating
46. Barrier Coatings:
Chocolate Coatings
Chocolate with a very fine granular
structure works well.
– Start with well-tempered chocolate
– Don’t subject it to too many heating and
cooling cycles prior to application
– Cool the finished product under optimum
tunnel conditions.
47. Barrier Coatings:
An Example
Visualize particles in a sand bed
– 10 lbs of sand holds 2 lbs of water
– If ground into smaller particles, that same 10 lbs of
sand will hold 4 lbs of water
Created more surface area
Smaller cocoa butter crystals will work the same
way
More oil held to minimize oil migration
– Stronger structural integrity=more heat stable
48. Storage Issues
Storage Conditions
Odors
Problem:
– Odors are more volatile than flavors
– Diffuse through packaging materials
Solution:
– Store chocolate products only in a
confectionery warehouse
– Avoid storing non-mint and mint flavored
products
– Use dry, odor-free pallets
49. Summarize
Understand fat system of your product
– Cocoa butter and veg fats are not compatible
Milk fat in dark chocolate aids in bloom
resistance
Compound coatings are heat resistant
Minimize migration by designing
resistance into the process
