The cooling of water to 165 degrees, allows it to kill resident bacteria in the formula without destroying vitamins - but it it has probiotics in it, it also kills that.

Dear All
I have a question and I haven't posted on Lactnet for quite a while. Its regards making formula. What is your recommendation for making formula--cooled boiled water or boiling water thats been cooled to 70 degrees C. Our national guidellines in Australia recommend mixing formula powder with cooled boiled water but WHO guidelines differ.
