Product FAQs
What is UHT milk?
UHT milk is milk that has been heated to a very high temperature (around 135-150°C) for a few seconds to kill bacteria and extend its shelf life. This process allows the milk to be stored at room temperature for an extended period without spoiling.
How long does UHT milk last?
Unopened UHT milk can last anywhere from 6 to 12 months when stored at room temperature. Once opened, it should be refrigerated and consumed within 5 to 7 days.
Does UHT milk taste different from fresh milk?
UHT milk may have a slightly different taste compared to fresh milk due to the high-temperature process. Some people notice a slight caramelized or cooked flavour, though many find it similar to fresh milk.
Why choose UHT milk over fresh milk?
UHT milk is ideal for those who need a longer-lasting milk option without refrigeration, such as in areas with limited cold storage or for emergency stockpiling. It’s also convenient for those who don’t consume milk quickly or want to reduce trips to the store.
How should UHT milk be stored?
UHT milk should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight until it is opened. Once opened, it should be refrigerated and used within 5 to 7 days.
