Messages
Comment on MSNF balance
MSNF= milk solids not fat
Message 1
Your MSNF concentration is not optimal BUT please see the message below.
CSS=corn syrup solids
Message 2
MSNF is within 2% lower or higher than optimal.
SMP= milk
powder

Terms of use
Can I customise a spreadsheet for my personal use?
Yes but you are advised make backup copies first!
Can I make multiple copies for use in my college or institution?
No. You should only do this if you buy a licence to do this!
Can I sell these spreadsheets to users?
Only if you buy the rights to do this!
I need a customised Excel solution. Do Dairy Science and Food Technology undertake customised development work and consultancy?
Possibly! Contact me and let me have details of your requirements.
What happens if I find calculation errors in a spreadsheet?
These spreadsheets have been tested extensively and it is unlikely you will find any errors.
If you do find an error I will correct the error and send you an amended spreadsheet.
Under certain circumstances e.g. low fat mixes using two or more sources of MSNF, the MSNF balance may not balance exactly.
This is not an error created by the spreadsheet and is a consequence of the approximations used in the serum point model. If donors Email me after the spreadsheets have been received I will also provide some advice on how to virtually eliminate this MSNF error using the Serum Point method.
Note if an ice cream formulation does not use a source of concentrated milk solids it may not be possible to achieve target MSNF concentrations. Use of special stabilisers or short storage times may be required.
If you are unhappy with the spreadsheet after it has been corrected I will be happy to refund your donation minus the PayPal processing fees.
Do you provide technical support?
Generally no! But if if you have a problem I will try to help.
Are the spreadsheets warranted? Note the NO LIABILITY statement
No. You use at your own risk. I am providing education products intended to help users understand how to apply the principles of the Serum Point method in the formulation of mixes for use in ice cream manufacture.
They are not being sold as quality assurance instruments for use in commercial production environments and should not be used commercially.
The spreadsheets require a registered copy of Microsoft Office or equivalent "Open Office" software to run. No spreadsheet application software is provided with the spreadsheets.
You should not donate with the intention of using these spreadsheets unless you intend to use them for your personal non-commercial use and accept that
