I make my own purées although we'll be moving to BLW soon. And I have a stray few ounces that I froze in cubes.</p> <p>@Cole: that's what I'm thinking too. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't any other reasons I didn't know of! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/heating-bm-to-thin-solids#post-2128636 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 17:53:46 +0000 Cole 2128636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: It should be fine, it may lose a small amount of nutritional properties but not enough to fret about in tiny quantities. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/heating-bm-to-thin-solids#post-2128633 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 17:50:09 +0000 Adira 2128633@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Hmm... I don't know because I'm not sure the reason you aren't supposed to in general. I wouldn't to be on the safe side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/heating-bm-to-thin-solids#post-2128627 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 17:43:13 +0000 Mrs.Someone 2128627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't understand why you would want to? I don't often thin out solids, but when I do I just use cold tap water and microwave the food itself first. But usually we just give DS cold food :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/heating-bm-to-thin-solids#post-2128622 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 17:37:43 +0000 regberadaisy 2128622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: @Adira: sorry, I meant more like heat in a pot or almost to boiling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/heating-bm-to-thin-solids#post-2128621 Tue, 31 Mar 2015 17:37:20 +0000 Orchid 2128621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh crap!

But if I'm using it to thin out solids, is that OK? Does anyone know?</p> <p>ETA: sorry! I meant more like heat in a pot almost to boiling. </p>
