Guest guest Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 I am still confused on weather to use raw goats milk or pasturized when starting the yogart. What are the majority of people using? What are the benefits of the raw if you are cooking it at high temps anyway? I just want to do what is going to be most beneficial to my son's health, I would appreciate more opinions on this subject please. It's going on 4 months and I want to get started.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Patti, When it comes to raw vs. commercial goat milk, I personally think the commercial stuff makes yogurt that tastes like something I wouldn't give my dog. Now that's just MY personal opinion. When it is pasteurized commercially it changes the taste and consistency. The yogurt made from raw goat milk is thicker than commercial goat milk and tastes world's better. My non-SCD husband is HOOKED on my SCD goat yogurt. He won't eat any commercial yogurts at all now. Now some people can't find it, but I drive 150 miles 3 - 4 times a year specifically to buy raw goat milk. I freeze it. As far as bacteria goes, the heating does kill all the bad bugs, it just tastes better when you do it. Now I won't use it if I haven't pasteurized it. If I ran out of a raw goat milk supply, I would just do probiotic and no yogurt unless I could handle cow milk, which my son cannot yet. We are spoiled now. It's so good.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 I am going to use pasteurized. Heating the goat's milk will kill whatever bacteria is in the raw milk regardless. I wouldn't use raw if given the option because I don't trust it. In my opinion, there should be no difference in benefit. B.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Coming from someone who is older and was raised with livestock and have owned goats in the past. Raw milk is fine and safe as long as where you are buying it can tell you that their goats or cows have been tested and are free of disease. A reputable dairyman knows this and will have no problem furnishing you with proof.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Has anyone noticed a difference in taste between brands of goat milk? I only see one brand at my grocery store so I was wondering. I remember back in my cow milk days that brands varied considerably in flavor. B.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 We only have one brand here, too. It is the one that has been described as tasting bad. likes it fine, for which I am grateful. mom to --12 SCD 4/23/04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
