Guest guest Posted September 13, 2004 Report Share Posted September 13, 2004 I just read about a farm in Sweden that raises moose. If everything is quiet it takes 30-45 min to milk one moose. But if a car goes by or anything disruptive happens it can take up to 2 hours!! Each cow produces 1 gallon of milk per day with 12% fat and 12% protein. They use the milk to make cheese which is becoming very popular. What's even more amazing is that they milk the cows twice each day.

Sweden's moose cheese is prized delicacy http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1191974/posts STOCKHOLM, Sweden (AP) - It's healthy. It's tasty. And it's expensive. At 7,500 kronor a kilogram (that's about $500 a pound), cheese made of milk from moose cows named Gullan, Haelga and Juna is sold to upscale hotels and restaurants in Sweden.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 , Don't get too excited. It's MOOSE milk, not mouse milk... ;-) Peace, Blane If God is for us, who can be against us?

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Heehee, yes I know. I think Mike would drink any mammal milk, including dolphin, whale, seal, horse, pig, dog, etc. He's a milk adventurer. He gave a list one time of the milks he would love to try. It was hilarious. > Message: 8 > Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2004 08:50:08 -0500 > > Subject: Re: Re: moose milk > > > , > > Don't get too excited.

I think Mike would drink any mammal milk, including dolphin, whale, seal, horse, pig, dog, etc. He's a milk adventurer. He gave a list one time of the milks he would love to try. It was hilarious. @@@@ LOL! I'm just skimming my email for the first time in 3 days--now this is an exciting topic! Humor aside, I would much rather try that moose milk though! Someone posted a link to an article about a comically unsuccessful dairy in Russia or somewhere that milked elk (?), so I will dig in my files for that when I get a chance. In the meantime, I'll be booking my flight to Sweden! (I wish.) But yes, I genuinely do have a respectably vigorous yearning to try all those different milks at least once each... Of course, I can't complain with my occasional treat of sheep milk here. It's *unbelievably* good. It's pretty much like drinking half-and-half. In fact, the last batch of sheep milk kefir I made a few days ago was so good I practically fainted upon sampling it! It was extremely creamy and thick with a perfect flavor and smooth texture, not separated at all. It was the consistency of cream that is not quite thick enough to be undrinkable. Sorry, I'm not doing it justice here, but it was perhaps the most amazing thing I've ever tasted, somehow better than my previous batches of sheep milk kefir. I think my kefir grains are somehow really " just right " at the moment. When I let my kefir go a few days in the fridge for a secondary fermentation I get incredible cheesy flavors, but maybe it had just been a long time since I played around with that kind of variation, having mostly drank up most of my kefir within a day or two in the past year or so... Well, anyhow, hopefully more about the moose milk later...
