Can I use hot water for skim milk powder?
I was trying to make milk tea from skim milk powder and black tea bags today, and found that after adding hot water to skim milk powder, that powder doesn't fully dissolve in the water. There are lots of white tiny particles in the hot water that doesn't disappear after 20 minutes.
I checked the instructions and it said use cold water to mix the powder. Are the white particles I saw normal? Or are they only a result of me incorrectly using hot water?
Thanks.

I always use hot water and it has worked fine. In fact i find milk powder dissolves quickly in hot water than cold.

Yes. You should always boil water before using it to make formula milk. Powdered infant formula milk is not sterile. Even though tins and packets of milk powder are sealed, they can still contain bacteria.Does powdered milk dissolve in hot water?
As long as it is 100% milk, and not a milk alternative, it works just great. Plus, it has the added benefit of dissolving in cold water. Most non-instant powdered milks must be dissolved in warm or hot water (which again, affect the taste!).How do you dissolve skim milk powder?
To make 1 cup (700 ml) for drinking, add 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of skimmed milk powder to 1 cup (700 ml) of water. This should be mixed thoroughly before drinking, stirring or shaking vigorously. Making it well ahead of time is preferred, giving the powder more time to dissolve thoroughly.Skimmed Milk Powder Vs Whole Milk Powder | स्किम्ड मिल्क पाउडर Vs व्होल मिल्क पा
