All about UHT<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

Almost everyone loves milk, and it is the first thing we consume after we were born, and it\u2019s including cow\u2019s milk. Milk is full of protein, vitamins, and minerals.\u00a0 But do you ever wonder how can we drink cow\u2019s milk that literally stays fresh for months? Or do you even notice that some milk is not refrigerated in the supermarket either, but they can be long-lasting?<\/p>\r\n

The answer is the cow\u2019s milk you drink has been treated in special ways to help it last longer outside a refrigerator or cooled environment. It has most likely been heated to at least 135\u00baC (275\u00b0F) for two to four seconds and stored in special packaging before it reaches your mouth.<\/p>\r\n

That process kills off harmful bacteria and helps ensure that you don\u2019t get diseases like tuberculosis, listeriotic, and typhoid fever\u2014this process is called UHT\u2013 Ultra High Temperature. Thanks to Louis Pasteur, who pioneered the idea.<\/p>\r\n

What is UHT?<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

As it said before, UHT stands for Ultra High-Temperature Pasteurization (also referred to as Ultra Pasteurization or UP). UHT milk goes through ultra-pasteurization, which safely heats the milk to a higher-than-usual temperature. Like regular pasteurization, this process kills bacteria in the milk that may be harmful or cause the milk to spoil, producing milk with longer life. It\u2019s then packaged in sterilized containers, also known as aseptic packaging, which helps keep the milk fresher longer.<\/p>\r\n

UHT milk can sit out unrefrigerated for about three months, and this can vary by brand. Once the container is opened, the milk should be refrigerated and has the same shelf life as other milk (seven to ten days).<\/p>\r\n

The process has gained traction in the past half-century or so. Although ultra-heat-treated milk hasn\u2019t really caught on in several countries, it is popular in Asia, where milk consumption has recently taken off, according to an intriguing BBC report.<\/p>\r\n

The torching milk undergoes as part of the ultra-heating process changes its chemical composition in a couple of interesting ways that set it apart from the milk we\u2019re used to drinking. For one, the taste is different. Ultra-heat-treated milk is generally sweeter, a bit more gelatinous, and sometimes more sulfurous than regular milk. The other difference is that heating milk at such a high temperature throws its proteins into disarray, which makes it difficult to produce cheese.<\/p>\r\n

But what about nutrition \u2014 surely this higher temperature must destroy vitamins and other molecules? While there are some very minor changes, all of the major governmental and nutritional sites, including the US CDC; the European Union; and New Zealand all state the same essential facts, summed up by the US CDC: \u201call of the nutritional benefits of drinking milk are available from pasteurized milk without the risk of disease that comes with drinking raw milk.\u201d<\/p>\r\n

UHT milk is a well\u2010established technology in many countries. Direct and indirect heating systems are used along with sterile packages and form\u2010fill\u2010seal systems. Advantages of UHT milk include reduced energy consumption, extended shelf life, and ambient storage and distribution conditions. Or if you need to stock up or don\u2019t like to go shopping that often, UHT milk is the answer.<\/p>\r\n
