Semi-skimmed milk (1.5–1.8%)
Energy: ~47 kcal / 100 ml (planning figure — the product label is the final reference)
Shelf life: Per date on pack; once opened, use within a few days kept at ≤ 4°C.
Storage: Cold chain ≤ 4°C; FIFO/FEFO; back in the fridge between rounds — never parked on the bar.
- A lighter latte or cappuccino when the guest asks for it
- Foam is thinner and less stable than whole milk — pour right after steaming
- Fine in iced lattes and karak, where foam is not the point
Lower fat than whole milk (~1.5–1.8%) with the same milk protein and lactose — the dairy-allergen flag still applies.
