RE: shelf life of raw milk

[Guest guest]

Thanks

for the info. The farm we get it from is like yours jersey cows on grass and is

an excellent clean farm and a Grade A dairy. There milk is awesome.

shelf life of

raw milk

Raw milk should still be

good to drink for 3+weeks. If the milk is not

allowed to sit out but for brief periods of time, is keep 32-38

degrees, the milk is chilled as quickly as possible after milking, the

cow is healthy and on good pasture/hay you should not have a problem

with the milk not tasting good after 1 week. We took 8 gallons to the

processor who does our grassfed beef and he called 5 weeks after we

had given this family the mikkand he said the 8th gallon tasted as

good as the first. Our milk is tested by DHEC and also the milk

company several times a month and got an excellent report yesterday

from the last sample taken.
