When half and half 'curdles' inside a hot cup of coffee, does that mean that harmful bacteria is present?
I have a question about coffee. When half and half curdles inside a hot cup of coffee, does that mean that harmful bacteria is present?
Curdling of half and half in hot coffee does not necessarily indicate the presence of harmful bacteria. In fact, curdling is often caused by a chemical reaction between the acid in coffee and the proteins in dairy products.
