A Better Way to Store Your Milk

Freeze-drying is a four-step process that removes the water in frozen breast milk and converts it into powder.

Step 01: Freeze

Your breast milk is frozen at a very low temperature (below 40 degrees Fahrenheit).

Step 02: vacuum

Reduced pressure within the freeze-drying chamber creates a deep vacuum.

Step 03: dry

(sublimation) Adding a small amount of heat removes the water from the frozen milk turning the ice into water vapor.

Step 04: package

Breast milk powder is vacuum-sealed in a mylar bag to protect it from moisture, oxygen, UV, and contamination.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Milk by Mom?

Milk by Mom is a breast milk freeze drying service. Freeze-dried breast milk powder in our packaging is self-stable for three years with no need to refrigerate.

Can I travel with freeze-dried breast milk?

Yes! Freeze-drying makes traveling while breastfeeding easier.

How can I be sure that the breast milk powder I receive is my own?

At Milk By Mom, we follow a strict sterile process when handling your breast milk. We carefully inspect, document, and label your milk as soon as it arrives, and store your milk in a dedicated labeled bin until we are ready to process it. We only work on ONE mama's milk at a time and clean all surfaces and equipment thoroughly in between batches. No momma’s milk will ever touch another’s. This helps to avoid any cross contaminations and also ensure that YOU will get back your milk.

What if I need to make a bottle of a different size? What is the ratio of breast milk powder to water that I should use?

Your freeze-dried breast milk is returned to you with a custom label that outlines how to rehydrate your milk to its exact original consistency.
