Why are the fat and protein levels in Esbilac/KMR liquid different than in the powders?
When you read the Guaranteed Analysis on a can of liquid milk replacer and a can of powder milk replacer you are reading values for the product in that particular can. The guarantees for powdered milk replacer are much higher because the numbers listed are without water added. If you look at the values for moisture, you’ll notice that the moisture level on the can of ready-to-serve liquid is much higher than on the can of powder. Once you have added your 2 parts water to the powder the fat and protein levels will match those in the liquid.
