RE: Spoiled frozen EBM?
I'm sorry about your 100 oz. I know how hard it is to build such a large freezer stash. I hope that it just is "soapy" as opposed to spoiled.
I also have a problem with too much lipase in my milk. The solution to this is to scald pumped milk immediately (or as soon as possible) after pumping. Make sure you do this before refrigerating it. I have no place to scald at work, so I actually leave my milk at room temp. for up to 6 hours before bringing it home and scalding it. I haven't had a problem yet with milk going bad. I can then leave it in the fridge for a few days or freeze it for up to 6 months.
Definitely do a "test batch" this way--as long as you scald (bring it just to the point where you start to see tiny bubbles around the edges), you aren't losing much in terms of nutritional properties.
