Coffee review

From Starbucks, Costa, Ruixing open the bar to see whether it is better to use "milk" or "milk"

Last Updated: 2024/11/17, Now, the production process of stores like Starbucks, Lucky, costa and Pacific Coffee is open, with milk on the table and customers can see it directly, so this is not confidential information. However, as more attention is paid to the quality of coffee itself, consumers should pay more attention to the quality of raw materials of the brand, whether coffee beans, milk or water.

Now, the production process of stores like Starbucks, Lucky, costa and Pacific Coffee is open, with milk on the table and customers can see it directly, so this is not confidential information.

But with more emphasis on the quality of coffee itself, as consumers should be more concerned about the quality of the raw materials of the brand, whether it is coffee beans, milk, water or syrup and other raw materials, judging from a glass of milk, because we care about what we "drink"?

Anyway, last month, we tweeted that Starbucks silently uses blended breasts. Netizens exposed that Starbucks Coffee uses prepared milk instead of fresh milk. The article mentioned that Starbucks stores outside Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai will change prepared milk, and customer service staff also confirmed that all areas except Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai are gradually being replaced with blended milk.

What do netizens think that Starbucks is going to change its milk?

@ Xu Xiaoming

When I was at Starbucks' Ningbo Century Oriental No.2 Store, I clearly saw their normal temperature milk on the counter.

@ Lao Liang

The milk from the channel is gone, and now you are ready to change the milk again? I saw them use Weigang before, but then it was Meiji for a while. Now I don't know what brand. Ask next time. There is light milk last year asked the shop assistant, the shop assistant said a brand, have not heard of, Baidu only found an unknown factory in the country. I don't know what brand to use now.

@ fish.

Am I the only one who has been seeing that Starbucks has always used to make breasts? Anyway, I don't drink it often, and I don't expect any coffee from Starbuck.

@ Nitro

This will not be easily changed. Starbucks will change its refrigerated milk brand from time to time, but this is the first time to use blended milk. But look, the one on the bar is really not normal milk. I don't know what's going on.

@ ™

As a customer in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, it can only be said that after the reunification of Greater China, many things are getting worse and worse. I wonder if you have noticed that the cup lid and straw cannot be compared with the original unified quality, and they are speechless.

@ CUPPING COFFEE_ Yang Wenhan

What's so strange about Starbucks, coast, Pacific, Racine, which of these chains don't use blended milk? Or does the company have a policy that must use fresh milk? Or did you promise to use fresh milk? Still complaining? What else do you have to say? Why don't you use duct tape? have you ever seen the world?

@ "Yi Yi"

Starbucks in Guangzhou make milk all the way, happy, bright and Nestle have seen it, so it is rare to drink coffee drinks with milk at Starbucks.

@ Archer

When has fresh milk been used in Guangzhou?

@ Green beans

As a food professional, milk is also one of the normal dairy products, and coffee industry stores had better recommend using ultra-high temperature pasteurized milk, which should not go bad.

Do not know why the above customers say that there is no nutrition to speak of, glycoprotein lipoprotein is the main nutrition, high temperature can not kill, the removal of microorganisms.

But there is still strong opposition to Starbucks' use of blended milk.

@ Rock_ Rocco

Starbucks Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai partners said that the face of Greater China is really not as good as unification.

@ please

After the United States receives Starbucks, do you want to change the syrup of low-cost raw materials from imported to domestic milk? do you also have to change the year-end bonus for milk employees? do you have to cancel the number of people who go to work and let your current partners do recruitment like dogs? 17.5 yuan an hour recruitment is now 21 yuan in Shanghai is the lowest. I don't even know what kind of ghost can survive in Starbucks now, I think. They are all those veteran employees who have been in it for more than 6 years, or they are all part-time college students who mix drinks, which is as good as before. I believe that sooner or later Starbucks will spit out this piece of meat in the coffee market sooner or later.

@ even

Wei remember to send happiness to the preparation of milk. It's like this in Guangzhou. So I'd rather go to the coffee shop now. The lattes in these coffee shops for about 25 yuan are either flavored or Weiji. Fresh milk tastes much better. Don't say there's no difference. Now the shops are looking for the best milk coffee. And Starbucks abandons flavor to save money. I'm disappointed. I am also a gold card member. I wouldn't buy Starbucks if I didn't take the train or be in a hurry.

According to fan comments, we summed up Starbucks milk across the country, different districts use the same brand, take the North District as an example:

Whole milk: happy (under Baxi)

Skim milk: happy (under Baxi)

Soy milk: Hong Kong Vitasoy (imported from Hong Kong)

Silk soy milk (American brand, domestic Mengniu agent, Chinese name is Zhipu Mill)

Southern District, taking Guangzhou as an example, Guangming Coffee Milk is currently used.

The milk used for coffee in Nanjing and Shanghai is Weigang fresh milk, so is skim milk, and Xingbing Le is used for happiness.

Black R shop: it uses Weiji fresh milk.

Costa stores: Greenfields, pure milk from Australia and Asia. Netizens have seen the addition of fresh milk. COSTA has 12 stores in Beijing that have started using fresh milk.

When it comes to this prepared milk, in the end, fresh milk vs milk powder vs pure milk vs recovered milk vs prepared milk, which is better?

In general, coffee shops use "milk" to consider the following four aspects: dense milk foam, maintenance of milk foam, sweetness after mixing with coffee, and taste mixed with coffee. Coffee practitioners, that is, lovers, choose different milk to make milk coffee.

According to Wikipedia materials, provide more professional and objective reference:

Long-lasting milk: long-lasting milk for raw milk by high-pressure sterilization or high-temperature sterilization, the use of aseptic packaging, shelf life is 3-6 months, can be stored at room temperature.

Fresh milk: fresh milk is sterilized raw milk after cooling packaging, need to be refrigerated, shelf life is 5-7 days. Milk with higher protein content will have a stronger "milk flavor"; milk with higher protein and fat content will have a creamy flavor.

Milk powder: a mixed food made from fresh milk or sheep's milk by freezing or heating, removing almost all moisture in the milk and adding appropriate amount of vitamins and minerals after drying. After a lot of trouble, fresh milk into milk powder, two purposes: first, the powder is easier to transport, and the shelf life is longer, this is to meet the needs of market-oriented technology. Second, powder is easier to add some trace elements, vitamins and other milk does not contain or less essential elements for the human body.

Restored milk: concentrate and dry the milk into concentrated milk or milk powder, and then add an appropriate amount of water to make an emulsion equal to the proportion of water and solids in the raw milk. Toss the fresh milk into powder, and then restore the powder to milk in proportion.

Pure milk: raw cow (sheep) milk as raw material, with or without reversion milk, in the state of continuous flow, heated to at least 132 ℃ and maintained for a short time of sterilization, and then after aseptic filling and other processes made of liquid products (things will go bad because it is mixed with a lot of bacteria, bacteria like fire, can continue to reproduce and proliferate, but without this source, then things can keep quality for a long time. So fresh milk from cattle or sheep is to go through a certain process of sterilization, pasteurization is this process), lactose intolerant drink is easy to have diarrhea.

Prepared milk: a liquid product made of not less than 80% raw cow (sheep) milk or recovered milk as the main raw material, adding other raw materials or food additives or nutritional reinforcers, and using appropriate sterilization and other processes. Prepared milk is also a kind of milk, and some nutrients of prepared milk have been enhanced.

Prepared milk is produced to meet the special needs of special people, and most of it is designed from the point of view of consumer needs, such as Shuhua milk, which can solve the demand for milk of those who are lactose intolerant. There are high calcium, high zinc milk is added with nutritional fortifier, in some nutrients content will be higher than pure milk. Lactose intolerance will not affect too much.

Here is a key point to distinguish between pure milk and prepared milk:

The milk content is different: the milk content of pure milk is 100%, while that of prepared milk is not less than 80%.

Different ingredients: pure milk requires that no other substances can be added, 100% is milk, while prepared milk can add other raw materials, food additives, nutritional reinforcers, etc., in addition to more than 80% of raw milk. For example, the breakfast milk we often drink, with wheat flavor, is actually a typical prepared milk. Take a well-known breakfast milk as an example, its main raw material is "milk, water, sugar". The protein content of this dairy product is about 2.4 grams per 100 grams, while the content of calcium has dropped from 104 mg / 100 g of pure milk to about 60 mg / 100 g. Calcium content has been reduced by nearly half.

Milk quality: the milk quality of prepared milk is not as good as that of pure milk

It is true that there are requirements for protein content in pasteurized milk, sterilized milk and prepared milk in food safety standards: pasteurized milk, sterilized milk ≥ 2.9 (2.9g/100g), prepared milk ≥ 2.3 (2.3g/100g), but it can be seen in the nutritional composition table of partially prepared milk that the protein content of prepared milk is not lower than that of pure milk.

In a sense, the emergence of prepared milk represents the progress of technology. Because from a nutritional point of view, pure milk may not be the most suitable for human needs, there is only one kind of raw materials for pure milk, if the quality is very poor, the taste of pure milk will be very "honest", and the taste of pure milk is mostly "insipid". So from the point of view of market demand, some companies use blended milk to adapt to some special people.

From a nutritional point of view, compared with pure milk, some nutrients of prepared milk may be diluted, such as the well-known protein. According to the relevant national standards, the protein content of pure milk is more than 2.8 g / 100 g. Milk preparation is more than 2.3 g / 100 g, but this difference can also be ignored. And the protein content of some good quality prepared milk on the market can even reach more than 3.0 g / 100 g. It should be noted that some nutrients in some prepared milk may have been enhanced to better meet the needs of the human body.

Also, many chain coffee shops, convenience stores with coffee creamer are free, understand this creamer.

Creamer: You don't see "milk" in "creamer" and take it for granted that it is made with milk. Creamer is not a natural agricultural product, but an artificial blend. Each product formula may be similar, but no two are exactly the same. Is a kind of oil, sugar, protein, water emulsion, spray dried into powder. It's a food ingredient to make drinks taste better, and its function has nothing to do with nutrition.

Cream is divided into two categories: solid and liquid. Solid cream, also known as "plant fat powder", is sold in larger cans, while liquid cream is usually packed in a small serving box. It is sometimes called "cream ball", "vegetable milk", "coffee companion" and so on. Whether solid or liquid cream, in fact, does not have much to do with milk, their fat is derived from vegetable fat. Usually, we don't think of them as dairy products. Non-dairy (plant) and dairy (including mixed), listed below:

Contains milk liquid: milk, condensed milk, light milk, seasoned condensed milk.

Milk powder: milk powder, cream powder, vegetable cream mixed powder

Non-dairy liquid: plant light milk, cream balls, liquid cream in glass bottles

Non-dairy powder: plant fat powder, coffee companion.

And some milk tea shops use this "creamer" at most. Do you know whether the "milk" added to this cup of fragrant milk tea is liquid creamer, creamer powder, milk powder or fresh milk? Which one is lower in calories? Powdered milk vs pure milk vs reconstituted milk vs prepared milk? Which nutrient is more? The answer may surprise you!

Milk tea = black tea + milk! What kind of milk do you drink?

Dietitians say most people know that drinking or eating dairy products can get good calcium, promote bone development in children and adolescents, and slow the rate of osteoporosis in adults. However, there is the word "milk" on the name of the drink, and it tastes rich and pure. Do you think what you drink is fresh milk? What is that?

Milk tea is brewed with black tea as the base and then added with "milk", but the names of milk tea in the market vary, such as "milk tea","fresh milk tea" and "black tea latte", etc., I don't know what kind of "milk" is added inside. The following is an analysis of four types of milk commonly used in milk tea, including liquid creamer, creamer powder, fresh milk and milk powder.

creamer vs creamer powder vs fresh milk vs powdered milk

The calories of the above four kinds of milk are the lowest in fresh milk. Fresh milk calories vary slightly with the seasons, and on average, about 63 calories per 100 grams of whole milk. At the same weight, liquid creamer has about 260 calories, whole milk powder about 504 calories, whole fresh milk about 63 calories, and creamer powder is 539 calories. That is to say, in terms of calories, creamer powder> whole milk powder> liquid creamer> whole fresh milk.

However, most people drink milk tea, may add 100 grams of fresh milk, but rarely add the same weight of creamer, milk powder or creamer powder, so the actual calories still need to be added depending on the amount. A cream ball (10 to 15 ml) usually has about 26 to 45 calories, and a tablespoon of creamer powder (8 to 10 g) has about 45 to 55 calories.

Creamer hides 4 traps: high calories, saturated fat, trans fatty acids, sugar

Nutritionists said that 700 ml of sugar-free milk tea (black tea + coffee mate) is about 180 calories, sugar-free fresh milk tea (black tea + fresh milk) is about 150 calories, milk tea calories are slightly higher than fresh milk tea, long-term intake is easy to lead to obesity and fatty liver formation. In addition, creamer is not only low in nutritional value, but also contains potential health risks of "saturated fat","trans fatty acids" and "sugar". Creamer's main ingredients are palm oil, coconut oil, hydrogenated vegetable oil, mono-or diglycerides, sugar, spices, etc

Key points: creamer, which accounts for a large proportion of fat content, is rich in saturated fat, trans fatty acids and high calories. Long-term consumption in large quantities is easy to cause cardiovascular and body burden.

Finally, understand whether it is the cause of "milk" and diarrhea

As for the Internet, it is said that drinking latte is easy to have diarrhea, which may be related to lactose intolerance. Lactose intolerance is easy to have diarrhea after drinking pure milk. Lactose intolerance will not affect the prepared milk too much. Drinking black coffee has nothing to do with milk. Please see [Why do you want to shit after drinking coffee?] Hahaha, found tissue, so I'm not the only one] If it's not related to lactose intolerance, consider other reasons.

Therefore, both prepared milk and pure milk have their own advantages, and consumers can make choices according to their own conditions.

Do you feel like you've gained a lot more,

Know more about this milk.

There is no standard answer to the question whether it is better to use "milk" or "milk"

Anyway, after a cup of black coffee every morning, I will have shit in 20 minutes. It's all because of black coffee that my constipation has been cured.
