If you freeze milk, and defrost it after the exp date will it still taste good? How long will defrosted milk post exp date last?
Thanks

Defrosted milk will taste different. The higher the fat content, the more different it will taste. Once defrosted it will last about 2-3 days.
I know a Chabad rabbi who holds cholov yisrael and gets frozen milk shipped to him from the U.S. If after the expiration date, you can consume is for about 2 days after thawing. Seems like a short amount of time.
It will only last one day before begining to sour.
Anything other than non-fat milk (skim milk) will be adversely affected by freezing — the fat sort of congeals. With non-fat milk, it should be as good as fresh, with about the same shelf life after thawing. When we lived in a community where the cholov yisrael milk came in once a week, we used to freeze it.
yehudayona- even non-fat milk tastes different after being frozen and has only about 2 days life after
It’s because non-fat milk still has milk in it. Even though it may say zero grams of fat per serving doesn’t mean there is no fat in the product…
I have to disagree based on personal experience. If you freeze it fresh it will last a lot longer than two days.
To me it doesn’t taste as good, but it will keep for at least a week or two after expiration.
Scientifically speaking. And I refer to whole milk.
In reality though, who can know? the results would be completely individual to each case.
