Very good long term storage option
Very good, and better than one might expect or hope to get from LTS milk. I purchased this for $18 in 2020 (now, $40 in 2024 after "Bidenomics"), it "expired" in late 2022, and I'm drinking it in 2024 over a year after "expiration." Considering this powdered milk is now almost 3.5 yrs old and 1.5 years past "expiration," the benefit is obviously having milk available on the shelf, for very long term. My overall impression is that it mixes best with a power mixer/whisk or blender on low setting (to avoid making it frothy).If you intend to drink it straight, it is best when very cold (ice) or chilled overnight in refrigerator. It has a very "fresh farm milk" taste, thick, and rich, with a slight chalkiness. (I prefer organic fresh 1% milk but enjoy whole, skim, and 2%.) I have drank a gallon or two of this powdered milk, when I ran out of fresh milk between grocery store trips. I also find it works very well for an ingredient in recipes that call for milk (smoothies, baking, etc.). I kept it on the pantry shelf until opened in late 2023, and then stored in the refrigerator once opened. Still working through it, it has lasted many months opened in the refrigerator. I'm very happy with the shelf life of nearly 2x as advertised. I'm happy with my purchase, but staggered at a 2x price increase in about 3 years. Inflation and more people prepping.... I will be watching for price reductions, and buying several more.In summary, it is a pretty good drinkable milk, and excellent for cooking/baking ingredient. It is best mixed in a blender on low settings, and best drank very cold in my experience.

Tastes great even for picky tastebuds!
I have memories of powdered milk from my childhood that were not good, and I would not even consider powdered milk before, but I found out that it can be a pleasing substitute for fresh whole milk, anytime you need it. This is aquality product, no doubt, and tastes just a little different than fresh milk, but it is still a very good taste, even if you are fussy. Of course you can dilute this to your preferred fat percentage, and it will still taste good, no matter what ratio you use for mixing the water with it. The only way to tell how you prefer it, is to buy it and try different mix ratios so you are satisfied with the result. Don't just go by instructions-go by taste and you will have the right number of tablespoons in water that works for you.This even mixes with cold water, just by stirring, though it probably would be quicker with a hand mixer-up to you, but I don't mind stirring a bit as I drink, if some powder did not mix completely, even if it's just a little bit. I was a bit hesitant to order, but I'm very glad I did, because we often run out of milk, and to have something that is so tasty to have when you need it, this is a blessing to have in reserve.We keep it in the refrigerator, hoping to extend the life when we don't use it for a while, even though the expiration date is very far off, we just figure it couldn't hurt. Thanks Hoosier!

MUCH healthier than the non-fat skimpy dry moo in grocery stores.
Yummy!!Been searching for a powdered FULL FAT 100 percent complete milk.Non fat, low fat milk is unnatural, altered. Read about the health problems it causes on NATURAL medicine doctors' websites...This whole milk is very good! Has a taste of milk mixed with rich cream. Nice and thick, perfect for coffee. Heating it makes a delicious white cheese on top! This is real milk!! Also buying powdered full fat goat milk to add to this; Meyenberg Whole Powdered Goat Milk, Vitamin D, 12 OunceMuch better than those unhealthy high fructose corn syrup, dried oils coffee creamers.I live on 4th floor in new apartment, it is hard to haul milk daily with no elevator. So am using dry milk until can buy a home. But will still keep this dry whole milk for coffee, cocoa...Very happy with this product. Saves money; just a couple teaspoons is enough for coffee!In the past 2017-2018 this milk was ok. In 2019; Intestine cramps. Try to make it like plain whole milk. I have tried using less, more...; it still taste great but my intestines hurt! Does something weird to digestion. Other brands of plain non-fat dry milk, whole milk and plain whole liquid milk from grocery store is ok. Cannot figure why this whole dry milk is causing this problem. Had to throw it away. Too bad, because being able to make milk at home saves a lot of heavy lifting, trips to the store and money.UPDATE; Nov 2020; up to 5 stars; Maybe was a older 'bad batch...' in past? Cramps can occur from too much calcium.I notice this milk does not melt in water. Hot water melts it easy.Also; this product does NOT contain soy. Lot other dry milk has soy. Soy causes many health problems. So; I am staying with this 'no soy added' milk for now.And; Been studying about the 'certain type of' Vitamin D... added to many other milks. Lot side effects if overdose! I think I will stay with this Hoosier and other a pure dry milks with NOTHING ADDED. Real milk as it is from the cow. Get my D from the sun and natural food. Looks like this milk does not have anything added.
