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.
Why Milk by Mom is the Safest Way to Save Your Stash
Preserve Nutritional Value
Milk by Mom's freeze-drying process uses sublimation, which preserves the nutritional quality of your breast milk more effectively than traditional dehydration. This ensures that your baby receives the essential nutrients they need for healthy growth and development.
Shelf Stable
Freeze-dried breast milk is highly shelf-stable when stored properly. This means you can store it for extended periods without worrying about spoilage, making it ideal for stockpiling or preparing for travel.
Travel-Friendly
Freeze-dried breast milk is lightweight and compact, making it easy to transport and store. This is especially beneficial for traveling moms who want to continue providing their babies with breast milk while away from home.
Improve Taste
Freeze-drying can help improve the taste of breast milk by inactivating the lipase enzyme. This can be particularly useful for high lipase activity that affects the smell or taste after refrigeration or freezing.
