Lactalbumin, for example, begins to coagulate as low as 150° F (66° C). Once precipitated, milk proteins tend to scorch. That’s why milk is best heated over very low heat or just briefly in the microwave oven, and why stirring is advised while milk is heating.

- Can you get a burn stain out? Your best bet is to try and make a 50/50 hydrogen peroxide solution, add it to a dampened old white cloth, and apply it to the scorched area. To help increase the removal, use another piece of dry white cloth over the damp one, and press a medium heated iron onto it to encourage transfer of the scorch.
