Per 100 g of product. Δ = Whey Protein 80% minus Milk Protein Concentrate 85. Verified against independent food-science sources on each ingredient page.

The difference that matters

Whey Protein 80% has the higher anti-freezing power (PAC 13 vs 4), so swapping toward it makes the mix softer and lowers the serving temperature; trim other high-PAC sugars if you want the same scoop hardness. Whey Protein 80% carries more fat (7% vs 2%), giving a richer, warmer mouthfeel but demanding you cut other fats to stay in range.
