Do we have any raw milk drinkers here?

[Gallo del Cielo]

I don't drink it now, but I did from the time I was born until I left home. I loved it. My favorite part was spooning the cream off the top.

I have now been making yogurt with the milk for quite a while, so long now that when I had to purchase some Dannon a few weeks ago it tasted TERRIBLE! Bland, super thick, and no tang!

We pick up our milk for $3 a gallon. The yogurt is just like the stuff you buy that has the cream layer on top. YUMMY!!!

Ahh this thread is making me daydream about some nigerian dwarves again! *sigh* someday....

BL4, I made your yogurt recipe about 2 weeks ago - it worked on the first try! YAY! Where do you get your milk? We pay twice that.

Great stuff, but heavy on the pocketbook. As the boys grow, we'll have to bump up to 3 gal a week. You can PM me.

we drink raw goat milk when we can...but it is VERY pricey...$16/gal. See why we are getting our own goats in the spring?

My local store only carries this brand of goat's milk, and it's 3.99 for that little carton...

They do NOT offer any other size, or brand, at all. Really annoying.

We run a cow and goat share that started to provide for just us and it grew from there.

The only thing you didn't mention is that breed makes a difference in taste and texture also. Our bucks run with the does also.

It's the only milk kids should be raised on
