Claims10
A method for manufacturing a milk-based product which does not scorch, the method comprising the following steps of:
- a) concentrating a milk raw material by microfiltration to provide an MF retentate fraction and an MF permeate fraction,
- b) ultrafiltrating the obtained MF permeate fraction to provide a UF retentate fraction and a UF permeate fraction,
- c) circulating at least a portion of the obtained UF permeate fraction back to the microfiltration as a diafiltration medium, and
- d) recovering the MF retentate obtained from step c),
- (e) providing the milk-based product comprising the MF retentate obtained from step d), having a β-lactoglobulin content of less than 0.10 g/100 g milk-based product.
