I buy a kilo of low fat or skimmed milk for around $12 . It lasts me a month. I have a couple of glass milk bottles with plastic lids and I make up one of those every couple of days, so about 850 mls? Maybe? Five tablespoons of powder to a bottle of water, lid on, shake, and into the fridge. So maybe 35 grams of powder, is that about right? Let's say 40... So, 30 odd days รท 2 x 40 grams plus the odd extra bottles on days when I bake or make porridge (I go all milk, no water) or sauces... Yup, that's about right, a kilo a month. And I don't have to lug all that water home from the shop,and I can use non chlorinated water if I have prepped some., which is why I started doing it when I came back to the city after years in Blenheim. Auckland water tastes awful after their tap supplied pristine glacier melt champagne..
And I cannot tell the difference between bottled milk and mine.
It's not a very 'green' choice, considering the processing and energy costs to produce the stuff, but it certainly beats buying whole milk on budget...
