ABSTRACT
A rapid procedure for categorizing off-flavored milks based upon ability to recover off-flavor essence in a steam distillate is presented. Five milliliter steam distillates, from 50 ml of both normal and off-flavored milks, added to 45 ml aliquots of normal milk were evaluated by an experienced taste panel. Off-flavored milks included milk with added copper (oxidized), milk that had been exposed to sunlight (light induced), milk in which flavor had been induced by wheat-pasture (feed), and milk with lipolytic flavor (lipolyzed).
The characteristic off-flavor was produced when distillates of either light-induced or copper-induced oxidized flavored milks were added to normal milk, but distillates of lipolyzed or wheat-pasture-flavored milks failed to produce these typical off-flavors.
