Guest guest Posted August 26, 2000 Report Share Posted August 26, 2000 I purchased some powdered goats milk and I was wondering if you have a recipe that calls for goats milk do you add water to make it liquid or do you just add a certain amount of the powder to your ingredients? I feel dumb asking this question but I have never used it before in my soap. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Arlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 27, 2000 Report Share Posted August 27, 2000 Hi Arlene. I've never made soap with goats milk before but I'm sure intrigued by the whole thing. I have a book on soap making that has a recipe in it and I'll pass it along for what it's worth. Since I've never made it, maybe some one else on the list can say if it'll work. I thought it sounded good, but what do I know? The book is by Tatyana Hill, " handmade soap " A practical guide to making natural soaps. She has a basic soap recipe you use first. 5.5 oz. coconut oil (solid), 7.75 oz sunflower oil, 7.75 oz. olive oil, 10.75 oz. caustic soda, 32.75 fl. oz still mineral water ( I just use distilled water, but if someone knows where to get still mineral water or for that matter what it is, I'm all ears,eyes in this case). To this she has you add, Supplements - 7 oz dried goat's milk, 7 oz. almond butter (a nut butter available from most health food shops), and 3.5 fl. oz. almond oil. Essentials oils - .5 cedar oil, 1.25 oz. lavender oil, ..75 oz. petitgrain oil, and 1 tsp. sweet orange oil. Add the powdered goat's milk and the almond butter to the almond oil. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients form a paste. Add this paste with the essential oils to the basic Soap Base at trace. If you try this let me know how it turns out. I want to try it but haven't had the chance to get the necessary ingredients. If I get to it first, I'll let you know. Sounds interesting, don't you think? If anyone has a different opinion, holler.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2000 Report Share Posted August 27, 2000 By the way. The book was a gift. I have no idea if it's good, bad or indifferent. Don't know where it was purchased.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2000 Report Share Posted August 28, 2000 I always use powdered goat milk for my GM soap. I use one of my favorite basic recipes (i.e., castille soap) and just add the goat milk when it begins to trace. No extra water. Don't wait too long to add it. It takes a while to blend in. Hope you are using a stick blender, too. -- Marcelle Karustis mkarustis@... - email (973) 776-3900 x7867 - voicemail/fax ---- " Gene & Arlene " <gnasmith@...> wrote: > I purchased some powdered goats milk and I was wondering if you have > a > recipe that calls for goats milk do you add water to make it liquid > or do you > just add a certain amount of the powder to your ingredients?

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2001 Report Share Posted May 23, 2001 Good Morning, Penny! I believe it is 155 degrees. OK, I looked and according to the Casey Makela book, Milk-Based Soaps, you slowly heat the milk to 155, keep at that temp for 1 minute, then cover and let cool. HTH, Kae <============================>Olive Tree SoapsWeb Site: http://olivetreesoaps.comEmail: kae@...<============================> Goats Milk Good Morning everyone!!

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2001 Report Share Posted May 23, 2001 The way they do it for milk for consumption is to bring it rapidly to 160 and then cool rapidly in ice water.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2002 Report Share Posted April 5, 2002 You can can it but the quality will not be the same. When you thaw milk the secret is to do it very slowly so that is separates less. Canning will not cause the separation but will caramelize the sugars some and the milk with be off white. You would have to check with someone on the guide lines for it. I could look it up if you would like to try it. Off hand I don't know what the recommended times would be and it would have to be done in a pressure canner. I freeze it myself.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 Cultured goat milk maybe? ... recommended on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet and is fine for many BUT there are a lot who don't tolerate it. On the Body Ecology diet and similar diets that recommend cultured foods they recommend things like coconut kefir.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 I have always used fresh or canned goats milk, but am considering powdered. Locally, the only powdered I have found has a bit of added vitamins and such, is that what you use or is there a different variety I should buy someplace else? Thanks for the help, Tina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Um Sorry but bucks do affect the milk flavor,especially during rut. I have no problem with milk flavor but as soon as the buck is in with the does for breeding it has the Goaty flavor take the buck out and then its gone. Its only when he is actualy living with them. He can be outside the fence about 20 feet and not affect it. This is the only time I have goaty flavored milk.. Diet is a Huge part of milk flavor every year when Ragweed blooms goats go nuts for it and I taste it in the milk If I let them to it.. I learned my lesson and they dont have access to it anymore. Unless its a few here and there in the pasture.. And some goats just have more goaty flavored milk no matter what.. Some people say certain breeds too but I stick with 2 breeds. ~~Tonia in Mo~~ http://allnaturalsimplelife.blogspot.com/ "Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Hi Kate, Lots of people start with yoghurt as the process breaks down molecules and also adds lots of much needed bacteria. See Natasha -McBride's book 'gut and pshychology syndrome' or Elaine Gottschall's book " Breaking the vicious cycle " Sara x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 We have been using goat’s milk, cheese and butter for nearly eight years, as well as sheep’s cheese – I spoke to Shattock at a TA conference in Manchester several years ago and he said this was fine for some children. Hope it is for your son! We have just started the Specific Carb Diet and weirdly butter is fine (goat’s or cow’s – although we are still keeping away from butter made with cow’s milk here) but neither milk – need to talk to the nutritionist about what we do here!
