“To solve a problem, global vision and multifactorial understanding are necessary. Therefore, in addition to expertise, one should seek multidisciplinary thinking connected with science and reality” – Dr Anny Manrich, PhD.
Professional Experience:
Dr Anny Manrich’s Experience Joining the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation, as soon as she completed her doctorate,
Dr Anny Manrich has worked on several projects, including the more than three-year partnership project with BRF, a major food producer in Brazil. As a postdoctoral fellow.
Dr Anny Manrich has also contributed to several business consultancies and research projects of the National Nanotechnology Laboratory System in areas such as food technology, fibres, films and coatings and Nanotechnology; in a very determined way, having a great team relationship, being creative and committed.
Growing concerns about the safe introduction of nanomaterials into today’s life emphasises the need to create regulatory documentation in front of characterising, using and testing them. Dr Anny Manrich worked for two years on a characterization project for nanoscale materials, with the aim of exploring their possible health effects.
Despite not having specific academic training in packaging or polymeric films, Dr Anny Manrich works at the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation in areas of edible and biodegradable films produced from agricultural waste and in the development of films with greater resistance to water, having articles published in renowned scientific journals, which demonstrates her multidisciplinary understanding and creativity.
In addition, she worked for four years as a consultant to a food company to develop a line of snacks that are healthy and that add functional ingredients, physiologically active compounds that bring health benefits, made from fruits and vegetables, enabling diet improvement, disease prevention and reduction of nutritional deficiencies.
Dr Anny Manrich participated as a member of the examination board for two Master’s exams and one PhD exam at the Department of Chemical Engineering of the Federal University of São Carlos.

In this article, we will answer the question “How to make evaporated milk from condensed milk?”, and how to make evaporated milk and condensed milk at home?
How to make evaporated milk from condensed milk?
You cannot make evaporated milk from condensed milk because condensed milk is a form of evaporated milk added with sugar. It would be necessary to remove the sugar from the condensed milk, which is not possible (2).
Although it is possible to use condensed milk in the place of evaporated milk in sweet recipes by the exclusion of sugar, it is not possible to obtain evaporated milk from the condensed milk.
What is the difference between evaporated milk and condensed milk?
The main difference between evaporated milk and condensed milk is that condensed milk contains sugar in its composition. The product is thicker in the consistency and is darker in the color, as a result of the Maillard reaction that occurs during its production (2).
Evaporated milk is made by evaporating about 60% water from fresh milk. It is a shelf-stable product because of the removal of water by using heat treatments, which reduce the water activity (the water available for microbial development and the occurrence of enzymatic reactions) and the microbial load of milk.
In turn, extending the shelf life of milk. The milk is usually concentrated by vacuum evaporation at 45–70°C, sterilized and packed (3).
Similarly, condensed milk is a milk product that is also prepared by removing about 60% of the water from dairy milk. However, sucrose is added to milk till approximately half the ratio of sugar to milk is achieved.
Sucrose acts as a preservative by increasing the osmotic pressure of the fluid, thus, preventing microbial growth. Sweetened condensed milk is normally packed in cans that are first sterilized by flaming. The cans should be filled accurately to avoid any air in the head space, as this could permit the growth of osmophilic yeasts.
The product can maintain its nutritious properties for a period of up to 2 years, without the need of refrigeration. Sweetened condensed milk has low water activity, aw (∼0.83), and high contents of sugar that restrict the growth of most microorganisms (3).
What are the nutritional profiles of evaporated milk and condensed milk?
The nutritional profiles of evaporated milk and condensed milk are given below (2):
| Product | Water | Fat | Protein | Carbohydrate | Ash/ minerals |
| American standard | 72.7–74.7 | 7.5–8.0 | 6.5–7.1 | 9–10 | 1.3–1.6 |
| British standard | 67–69 | 9–10 | 8–9 | 11–12.5 | 1.9–2.1 |
| Sweetened condensed milk | 27 | 9 | 8 | 55 | 1.8 |
How to make evaporated milk at home?
Evaporated milk can be easily made at home by simmering milk on low-medium heat. It is important that you only simmer the milk and do not let it boil. After about 25-30 minutes, the milk will become thick and creamy with a slight pale-yellow color.
It is important to mention that the evaporation should be done at low temperatures, such as at ∼70°C (158°F), in order to reduce the thermal degradation of the milk and prevent the loss of nutrients and generation of undesirable sensory effects (3).

With evaporated milk
You will need the following ingredients to make condensed milk from evaporated milk. The amount of that should be added is 62.5 to 64.5 g for each 100 g of concentrated milk (3).
- 215 g white granulated sugar (7.6 ounces)
- 12 ounces can of evaporated milk (340 g)
Follow the procedure given below:
- Pour the evaporated milk and sugar into a pot or saucepan.
- Bring the liquid to a boil while stirring continuously. Reduce the heat to the lowest heat possible to avoid extensive browning.
- Keep an eye on the color and consistency. When the liquid develops a pale yellow color and a rich creamy consistency, turn off the flame.
- Let it cool at room temperature.
- Store in the refrigerator in a sterilized container.
With fresh milk
If you do not have evaporated milk, worry not, use whole milk to make sweetened condensed milk for your desserts. You will need the following ingredients (3):
- 215 g white granulated sugar (7.6 ounces)
- 12 ounces can of evaporated milk (340 g)
Follow the procedure given below:
- Pour the milk into a pot or a saucepan
- Cook on low heat, reducing the heat to the lowest heat possible to avoid extensive browning until the volume of milk is reduced to half of the initial volume
- Add the sugar and keep stirring at a low temperature
- When the liquid develops a pale yellow color and a rich creamy consistency, turn off the flame
- Let it cool.
- Store in a sterilized container and refrigerate.
