Blind Taste Test: Goat Milk vs Cow Milk

Does goat milk taste good? We think we want to get goats, but we have never tasted goat's milk before. Watch as we do a blind taste test on goats milk vs cows milk. Can we tell the difference? Which one is better? This is the taste test that will determine if we get goats or not!

I Loved this video! I was waiting for you to post this video after you commented on my video of my Blind Taste Test! Thanks for sharing! I LOVE my goat milk! I am so excited for you to get some goats! Did you order them yet!? lol! Keep up the good work! here is our goat milk comparison video between Nubian and Alpine. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGS8q36XZbWcmK8 Thanks for inviting us to share! ~Rose - The Goat Lady!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I am so glad you chimed in! These videos go well together! After shooting this, we did go over and visit her farm and we have a 2yo nubian doe in milk and a nubian doeling we have our eye on. Of course, we have a lot of prep work to do first before we can take them home! I just hope they don't sell in the meantime! I'm pinning this link :0)

[@WholesomeRoots]

Oh, I really hope you can get them! A doe in milk is hard to find! How much per day is she milking? Ahhh! I have so many questions, lol! I am SOOOO excited for you! GOOD FENCES are a must of course! Good luck on a speedy preparation so you can get these goats!

[@WholesomeRoots]

and Thank You for Pinning this, I really appreciate that!!!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

She is currently nursing two fostered kids and not being milked for consumption. But she comes from excellent lines. I really hope we can get her! I want to put a deposit on her, but I am afraid that wouldn't be fair to the owner as I have no idea how long it will take us to build a fence/house (and she is housing/feeding the whole time we are doing this). We have a coop to build first for our new chickens/ducks which are coming soon. Ahh! So much to do and so little time!

[@WholesomeRoots]

Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living Hard decision! It is a very busy time of year on the homestead!

[@edgrigsby8610]

I had goat milk years ago...it was horrible. I've since tried it again, but from a responsible person. I tried her raw Nigerian goat milk and it was AMAZING! NO goaty taste at all! It was very creamy! We've decided to get Nigerians. It tastes like.... milk. I grew up on raw cow milk, so I feel like I would able to tell...but with Nigerians, you'd never guess it was goat milk.

[@admerrallestone3985]

WHERE DO I GET RAW GOAT MILK IN NIGERIA

[@darkfaequeen9031]

Nigerian Dwarf Goats are great, they have the highest butterfat content

[@user-wx5gk5bp6n]

When we first got goats my children said the milk was horrible, so I put it in the cows milk jar and told them it was cows milk. They never knew the difference! I didnt tell them for six months. Imagine their surprise.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

LOL!

[@WholesomeRoots]

I did this to my teens as well! lol!

[@rhodamartinson5103]

The reason some people had a "pee" taste experience is because the "Billy" goat was with the milking nanny's. The Billy goat urinates on his beard. The nannys will lick the strong urine off the Billy goats beard. This act helps the nanny goats to ovulate for breeding. Never have your Billy goat in same pasture as your milking nanny's if you want good tasting milk. Hope that helps.

[@meglupo18]

👀 yuck!!!!!

[@marielynnlacasse8902]

Catching up on old episodes since discovering you guys. I have to say, this episode made me laugh my head off. You guys have great chemistry and put out great content. Thank you very much. Our family loves following.

[@lilbitatatime3763]

Hilarious! Absolutely you nailed it! It takes a real good man to admit an error. You both are amazing! 👍

[@danbraun3780]

Jamie, you nailed it. 100%. And you didn't have to think about it. You ARE a tasting expert.

[@cherokeepurple4480]

I bought goat milk from a supermarket and it tasted “gamey.” That’s the best way I could describe it. You guys made me change my mind about goat milk and perhaps having goats in my future.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Totally depends on the breed and what they eat.

[@thomaskatayama3336]

That was both educational and fun to watch. Thanks for sharing!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks for watching :0)

[@GovtWatchdog]

I just drank whole raw goat milk for the first time the other day and it actual tasted a little less creamy and sweet to me than cow milk. Still good though.

[@ChadDidNothingWrong]

Things are out of control over here

[@ammiecoburn7480]

I have to tell you, when I first started watching your videos I thought you were sweet. I would come back every now and again just to see what you were up to. I was mostly watching Doug and Stacy, Patara, and Starry. I subscribed to your channel because your content was getting better (not just sweet). Girl, you are blowing it out of the water! You are a real family trying to do what is best for your family. You are doing what I want to do. I have been closet prepping for about 8 years. I am not all doom and gloom and would like to think that people would come together in a time of crisis. Keep up the good work and just know, its people like you that others will come to for help and knowledge. Stay sweet, and keep those vids coming! I cant wait to see what you will be up to next!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I have a plan I am working on...it should be an interesting journey. Slow but sure. Thanks for watching Ammie

[@Pinkenstein]

Ha! This was so entertaining! And your taste test was very thorough! Makes me want to do a taste test of my own with cow, goat and sheep. I'm entertaining the idea of dairy sheep, as a future possible revenue stream, as I haven't come across that in my immediate area. You guys are great. Yours is my favorite homesteader channel, hands down. Thank you for the knowledge, ideas and genuine entertainment! 💜💜💜

[@velocityakaslothmom8083]

That was a very smart way of doing that. I didn't even think about going and getting the milk to taste tested if we even like it. Thank you

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Yep it sure helps to know what you are getting into before you spend the money and time!

[@CallaFab]

Great video. I been thinking about getting goats for the milk, not just pets.

[@tanyabrown9839]

LOL at him screwing up the video and causing you confusion. I enjoyed watching this video, you both have a new subscriber.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Tanya Brown Welcome Tanya!

[@olsonoutdoors783]

great video guys, im really surprised that they tasted that close together. for me as a kid it was an acquired taste. hope you guys enjoy what looks like an up coming goat adventure

[@Guildbrookfarm]

And the cow milk we used was amazing tasting cow milk...so to be so close in taste says something about the quality of her goat milk!

[@TressasSouthernHomeCooking]

So interesting and a great way to test the milk. That was so fun to watch and Jeremy made me laugh when he got the milk mixed up. I cannot wait to see when you two get some goats and hopefully make some videos. Good luck and have a terrific Sunday!-----Tressa Daigle

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks Tressa. It should be fun!

[@curtisfoster540]

I know I'm late to the party, by WOW I love you guys!!! I've been binge-watching you guys for 2 weeks now in no particular order and I can't get enough. Congrats on the new homestead, sorry for the aggravation from the neighbors of your previous home (the pain/frustration was quite evident in your facial expressions, although you were as nice and empathetic as possible), and hope you all are as happy as you are making me! :)

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Welcome to the circus 🎪🙃

[@NobleHomestead]

Woo hoo, yeah! You (KNEW you) were on the money, Jaime, and Jeremy was really fun. Goats would be lucky to live on your farm. Cheese and soap next! Thanks for such a fun demonstration. I'm really enjoying your videos.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

LOL ya I love food a LOT so I was surprised (and totally disbelieved him) when he said I was wrong!

[@valerieplummer7880]

Cute segment, thanks for the demo.

[@1wolfpup]

Awesome taste test! We just got 3 Nubian does. We really love goat milk and are excited about having our own supply. Really happy you guys are getting them as well.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Congrats on the does Shannon!

[@avonleanne]

good for you!! awesome taste testing!! that was fun!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

It was for us too!

[@jackiegwinn6745]

Too cute, just found your site and cant stop watching!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Welcome Jackie!

[@laurabrowning924]

He's a keeper!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I couldn't agree more :0)

[@lesleyoliver5582]

Well,we were supplied by a couple of farmers in our area and they had different goats so I'm presuming it's their feed. This was 33 years ago and the locals were afraid of "new tangled things/ideas".

[@RootsandRefugeFarm]

Y'all are so cute!

[@modernrider1398]

Even with one goat thats so much milk. There is a youtube video of a surfer vegan guy in hawaii who had arthritis or something so he got some goats and drank their milk and healed his body.

[@LawhorneChannel]

Great idea! I grew up on a farm and LOVE that first glass out of the pitcher lol. lots of cream!

[@neilgriffiths6427]

We were snowed in for a week once, so we trekked to the neighbours farm - they gave us a couple of gallons of whole milk (the tanker couldn't get through, so they would just have to pour it away). Delicious!

[@ce6827]

Thanks for this video. I was thinking about goats to help me manage grass/weeds and to get milk, but was afraid I wouldn't like it.

[@BeckyInCa]

I I love your videos! I'm always happy to see that you've posted a new video. Thanks for doing this taste test. I've never tried goat's milk. I need to try it as soon as possible.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

It was a fun experiment :0)

[@allsorts4041]

I don't think my condo will allow goats on the balcony lol. Good luck with the goat venture. Cant wait to see videos about it. Well done :-)

[@Guildbrookfarm]

House goat LOL!

[@rosem6604]

I'm not a big milk drinker but I do love goat cheese and they are so expensive here that I'd definitely would want goat milk to make those.

[@analmonddropouttayourpantl2228]

You guys look like you go well together. Really cute couple. Loved the video.

[@beowolf19751]

Goat milk is great! It's also written in the Book of Proverbs for us to put in our foods!!

[@johnchase4408]

He thought the 4th was the same as the previous 2 because he never rinsed his mouth with water to clear his pallet in between tastes. So the 4th tasted the same.

[@cynthiabrennemann3513]

Just a tip...the trick to getting really good tasting goat and cow milk is not only what you feed them, but making sure that before you milk them, give them a good brushing, wash off the teats, and make sure you don't get any hair in that milk. You get goat hair in the milk and BLEARGH...that's what makes goat milk taste goaty. Doesn't take more than a couple of hairs to do it, either.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Good to know ;0)

[@aliveandfilming2]

I truly enjoyed his skepticism 🤨 🤣 🤣

[@terencebollman9162]

When my son was born many years ago, he couldn't drink baby formula because he would upchuck everything, my grandma told me to get a goat and feed him the milk, it worked and he got fat off of it.

[@WHALEx3]

lol

[@akdoss1337]

OMG dying laughing!!! you had her so messed up on her testings!!! too funny...my dog just looked at me like I lost it! haahahahahahah!!!

[@gleaningjoy273]

Such a fun video. Thanks!

[@n.watson8497]

Having had both raw goat milk and raw cow milk in all seasons of the year from numerous sources, I can tell you that the taste will vary a little or a lot according the the time of year, what the animals are grazing on, milking procedures, chilling, etc... Something I do that helps is to put the milk in the freezer until there are a few ice crystals. Also, there are times or seasons when the milk can develop off flavors or "goatiness" very quickly. If that happens, adding a few drops of food grade peroxide to the fresh milk as a preventative works wonders.

[@LifeGoesNorth]

Great idea to taste goat milk first. I'm a whole milk believer. :) We had a couple Dwarf Nigerians and they are awesome. The milk from a Dwarf Nigerian almost tastes like cream! Not at all goaty. And they can make quite a bit for their smaller size! Research CAE in goats and see how she handles her herd for it. Feel free to email me if you ever want to talk goats! Exciting! Your girls are going to love it!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Yep I already asked her about it. Do you think you will get them again?

[@LifeGoesNorth]

Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living I think so. I have to decide if I realistically have time to milk them though. Twice a day is hard. I think it will depend on how me working goes. I'm currently obsessing about getting a reindeer. Not even kidding.

[@LifeGoesNorth]

I'm sure you've read how much more digestible goats milk is. 🐐

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I've read a bit on reindeer as a good source of both meat and dairy. It may be a better option than goats in Alaska. Now THAT would be an adventure!!!

[@LifeGoesNorth]

Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living someday when I can afford one. I'm not even sure if I'm allowed. I heard only the indigenous people could have them here, but then I read it was actually legal. So have to do some more research. I don't think I could ever harvest one for meat though. They are too beautiful to eat. Charles and the kids eat reindeer dogs. I couldn't eat it a magical creature. 😂 my friend is trying to get me to go with musk oxen. The fiber is amazing. I used to raise angora rabbits for fiber (and they are so sweet) and have a spinning wheel to use so maybe some day. 😊

[@mrs8792]

Excellent!

[@anything9988]

Great channel, I'm hooked. Never tried goat milk and probably would have turned my head away if offered any, not that i see that happening, but now you've got me curious. Keep up the great work on your videos.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks Ed and let us know if you ever try it! Just make sure it's fresh!

[@patschomann7338]

Great way to tell one from the other. It was fun watching this video. Maybe we will consider goats in the future. Thanks for another great video! I love this channel.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks Pat :0)

[@keithbrookshire]

I'm looking forward to watching your goat adventure.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Hopefully really soon! Just need a fence..and house...and milking stand...and feed..and...and...and lol

[@jeanniegriffin1692]

+Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living ,, you nailed it woman! Funny. ( put all of your milk in glass bottles,, ok. If I can only get milk in a plastic container- the minute I get it home, I put it in a glass container. Organic all the way...lol). I rely dig goat milk, and goat meat.

[@lesliejacobs1439]

I was raised on 'Skinny milk' too...I was blue...they color it now so it is white.. I will only drink raw milk..now and have no access ...so no milk...but it get powdered goat milk from Vitacost...if I need some milk additives for baking..works good.

[@joannedonovan9489]

Good job, guys! Too fun!! When I lived in Calgary, Alberta, Canada for two years, I was able to get goats milk and juiced it with carrots & beets! Yum, yum! You'll enjoy it!! (I now live in South Carolina, and have not had goats milk in a while. Might have to look for some!!)

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Carrot/beet goat milk smoothie! Sounds extremely healthy! Thanks for sharing :0)

[@starandanchor]

I love watching you guys!!!

[@mweber5459]

Raw goats milk taste so much different than pasteurized goat’s milk… I hope you take this into account. Raw goats milk is so much better tasting!

[@scottadams8049]

She already knew because YOU SAID THE COW MILK WAS SWEETER & she new which one was sweeter

[@1947wdx]

As someone who grew up on goats milk, something to keep in mind when handling the goat milk.Do not use plastic containers. Glass or stainless only. Something about the plastic always made the milk turn rancid in a hurry.

[@OccupyMax]

I love the effort yall put into these videos. Great production and always a learning moment. Great work! We just bought a share on a local dairy cow for raw milk but we haven't gotten our first jug yet. We'll be... thinking about goats ;)

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Awesome! Raw cow milk is amazing too!

[@beccacoleman498]

Its so cool to see you two in the same video! you guys are adorable :)

[@nellspop1]

awesome video, you two are great together

[@kenderosa8528]

I love your farm. Keep up the good work

[@carolinaprepper540]

I thoroughly enjoyed this Video !!!!!!!!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks! It was fun to make

[@jimsgardensandrabbitry]

Love you all. Jeremy, you cracked me up. I had no doubt in my mind that you would both know the difference. I think I mentioned in another reply that I worked and managed dairy farms most of my life. Like Jeremy, I had fresh milk strait from the cow and loved it. I think one of you said blue milk. I had not heard that expression for so long. My dad would say Holsteins gave blue milk because it didn't have the butterfat content like a Jersey does. I have tried goat milk a few times from different farms. Everyone said theirs was better than any other farm. To me, all of the goat milk that I tried smelled like a billy goat and I just couldn't sip it. So in saying that, where you plan on purchasing theses goats, must be doing a great job. Great video. Thanks. Blessings

[@Guildbrookfarm]

They really are! Fantastic dairy!

[@manfredknight5014]

Excellent!!!!!!!!! I loved it! You were right all along, even when he insisted you were wrong. Never had goats' milk, but I have had goat cheese and it is great!

[@kimbermoss]

Loved that! You had it all figured out Taste test Ninja! I was considering goats but my concern is what to do with the babies? I don't think I could process a goat and if I didn't sell the babies that's what I'd have to do. Big decisions and I look forward to this new chapter on your Homestead. 👍🏼

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Kimberly Mossman Yes definitely something to consider beforehand. They multiply!

[@YankeeLivn]

I like cooking and cheeses made from Goat milk, But not for drinking, But in all honesty, It does make a difference on the kind of goats you have too, thanks for sharing

[@Guildbrookfarm]

She made us some goat cheese as well. It was amazing! I am looking forward to making some

[@samanthakiever1418]

Honestly, I prefer goat milk over cow milk. Not only is it easier on my stomach, but it's so creamy and almost savory. You really feel like you're getting nourishment from it. It almost tastes cleaner to me, but I don't really know if that's the best way to describe it.

[@sumaiali5908]

It is healthier and easy to digest

[@TheBrassCaster]

growing up with cow and goat milk, goat is nicer tasting, it is,,,,,, creamer??? I think so, and also sweeter.. I love both! I also prefer goat cheese similar to Philadelphia creme cheese in softness and texture, but better tasting to me.

[@SERGIO-cr6uy]

17mins to try two different types of milk??

[@johniac7078]

Fun. Did you ever see the famous Napoleon Dynamite mike tasting scene? LOL. Goats are really good to have. Lots of good cheeses to make too. Nice job guys.

[@LittleImpaler]

Sheep milk is best. It's creamy, sweet, and fatty, and doesn't taste like animal. Goat milk can taste like goat, which I don't like. The problem with goat milk you need to remove the ram like 50,000 thousands miles away from the female goat, or it will affect the taste of the milk. Really good goat milk should taste like milk and not goat.

[@Mustafaljuboori]

LittleImpaler it taste like a barn right ? Hahaha Sheep is my go to milk 💯

[@engsetters4633]

I've tried goat milk a few times and it tasted exactly like a goat smells. It's nasty.

[@sallywasagoodolgal]

I milked goats for years, and we loved it. THEN I tried goat milk at the State Fair. They were telling me how great it was, and I thought it was awful, compared to what I was getting. I had 2 grade goats, a toggenberg, and 2 alpines. I was very disappointed with what they acted so proud of. Theirs tasted of stinky billy goat, mine tasted like cow milk.I was kind of sorry all those people were trying it, and thought THAT was what goat milk tasted like.

[@tyrroo]

That's my concern; I hate the smell of "goat's milk soap" products, so I worry that milk from an actual goat would taste like that.

[@sallywasagoodolgal]

You must be very, very clean with all milk. Soap, and boiling water, for your utensils, buckets, and so on, is your friend. Keep all your jars, and strainer very clean, and take your does away to be bred. Cool your milk down fast, too. You wouldn't keep a skunk in the fridge. Keep the stinky billy away from your girls. Some goats have a milder milk, and a lot depends on what you feed. If they graze on onion tops...guess what? onion-milk. If your barn is a sty? Your milk will suffer. If they can rub on a post where a billy rubbed, icky goat milk. Find someone with a clean barn, goats that are far away from the billy, and try their milk. My milk was good. My friend (with goats) her milk was good. People came to my house, put it in their coffee, and had no idea. It tasted like cow's milk. If they'd asked, I would have said. Nobody noticed.

[@heritagehousewife]

Goat milk, cheese, soaps....., Yeah!!! Enjoy your journey!!! Can't wait to see it all come together!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Me too! I have been mentally going down this path for 2 years. I am looking forward to experiencing it first hand ;0)

[@JustLivingfortheday]

LoL this was the funniest loved the mess up.

[@TheNBAHistory]

Taste test starts at 8:41

[@DavidLopez-up3qm]

You legend

[@vernonb4641]

You Guys are wonderful' and Fun in posting this!!! Thank you! for your candid Honesty',, currently we are home and stationary' during the Pandemic situation, and I am a real fan of Cow's Milk!! unfortunately it has become very scarce , including powdered milk all through-out,,,,, my family has tried Goat milk in the past and inform me that it is not a life change situation in taste''' ,, I was just in the 'not knowing' state ,, I will pursue the Goat milk line, because I am finding that it offers many benefits that Cow's milk doesn't, but mainly, you have opened my mind up to the change, with a light hearted demonstration! I thank you both for that''' take care' , stay safe''

[@natamick5091]

That was right on time! I've been thinking about getting goats from my neighbor...but unsure about the milk difference.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

The feed and milk lines has a lot to do with taste. Be sure to try it first :0)

[@Emily-qh8kp]

This was fun to watch

[@DossFarm]

We just got our Nigerian dwarfs. Can’t wait to try their milk. Good stuff!

[@skaetzle]

In my experience different breeds milk taste different. Also if you let the milk sit for several days the taste will intensivy. I for sure preffer goats milk over cow =) But you are right: taste the milk from where you will get the goats! Otherwise, why get goats, if you dont like their milk?

[@katrinaschultz8493]

Next step, goats milk icecream! It is a bit dangeious for me to have it around, I have a hard time eating just one bowlfull.

[@chicarobertson4706]

I've actually made goat milk ice cream, no difference in taste of cow milk ice cream...

[@rcagle123]

That was awesome and very funny!

[@lisabooker6405]

YAYYYYYYY GOATS!!! LOL Now when you played this back and saw how happy her face was I just bet that sealed the goat 🐐 deal for sure! LOL Thanks for sharing. God Bless.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Lisa Booker I'm just happy we both liked it :0)

[@lisabooker6405]

Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living Oh I'm certain of that!!! I sure hope it didn't come across as me being rude? I would never be disrespectful or one of those who try and sneak little snarky digs in. I genuinely enjoy your channel. You're love for each other and the respect you have for one another shines through your videos. You're one of my favorite KZbin couples. Well your channel in general is one of my favorites even though I'm a newbie. If my comment seemed at all flippant I am truly sorry. I just enjoyed seeing the joy and excitement.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

I didn't take it that way at all! (as in not disrespectful or rude at all). We ARE happy it tasted good and yes! That means goats! It's all good! :0)

[@lisabooker6405]

Guildbrook Farm | Simple Sustainable Living Well good! You never really know how something is perceived in type. I really dislike some of the poopy stuff people say on KZbin anyway. Especially those who make those "sneaky" comments. I'm a straight forward type person myself. You guys are just super adorable and have a great sense of humor. Thanks for sharing the journey. I'm shutting up now! LOL

[@Maryqc1960]

I just watched Willow Creek Homestead and they were looking at purchasing some goats and did an interview and taste test with the owner of the goats. the owner said that the taste of the milk depended on the breed of sheep but also the way the milk is handled ( she cooled it in a freezer for an hour to get it to 40 degrees as fast as possible)and the type of feed that that is fed to the goats (she didn't say what they were feeding their goats). I love your videos.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Maryqc1960 Yes that is correct. Goats for everyone ;0)

[@derekgargan5080]

I breed goat for milk quality, I started because my daughter had bad exma, it went away very quickly when it was goat milk only, some quick tips. Dont get a male.. unless you want to be a stud farm, just find good stock to use. Get your first Miller already producing with its young kid. They then get used to being handled while you get used to the milking process. Dont feed greens like cabbage before milking, makes the milk coloured and smell, after is OK as time to process it. Excess milk can be safely frozen, when I started it could only be sold/bought frozen. And finally always keep fresh milk in the fridge, most people who complain of the taste is because its been left on the side all day, good luck

[@DorisAnneS]

The taste of the milk depends some on what you feed it. Like cows if they get into a field of onion-you won't want their milk for a few days.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Correct

[@JosephDeMato]

Just found your channel. Hoping to get goats but have never tasted the milk. Will need to try this with the missus.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Joseph DeMato Best of luck!

[@cynthiacollins2668]

It's very important to chill it immediately after milking the goat! I stick it straight into the freezer for an hour or more. If it stays warm too long, it will develop the strong flavor some people complain about.

[@lorthras8248]

Yay! I got so happy when i saw you guys had done this comparison video! Thank you

[@katiegrazier4091]

Great video, we also plan to get a couple goats down the road. Can't wait to see the new additions.

[@Guildbrookfarm]

+Katie Grazier Thanks!

[@TheForeverHomestead]

We added a goat to our homestead and I have not tasted Goat Milk before. Our goat will not be making milk until after the house is built. I think we may try this as well.

[@lionesurvival5488]

Yup! I live in upstate South Carolina and raw cow milk is almost always in our fridge.

[@Rocky1765]

You didn't clean your palette inbetween tastes. Need to eat a non salted cracker in-between to reset taste buds.

[@steveharris2589]

I grew up on a small farm in the 1950's and 1960's I live in W.Va. I had a milk goat and I did not like goats milk!!!! But I gave a lady next door the milk for her new baby who had been sick a lot and the milk really helped him. 🐐🐐🐐👍🏼😊

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Sorry to hear it Steve...I wonder if it was goat's milk in general or just the breed/feed/goat line? The mom next door was sure lucky to have you

Awesome vid thanks for sharing it. I love goat milk, cheese and prefer it over whole milk which I used to drink in copious amounts. I hope to be getting goats in the near future. First come the chickens, coop and run.

+dumanhieu sounds like a good plan! Good luck!

Love this one - you're a sweet team - I really like that. I don't live to far from you and hopefully I see you out one day.

That was fun! I grew up with my own milk goat :)

[@homesteadincrazy7773]

does goat milk have cream like cow milk?

[@naplescajun]

Y'all are so funny/cute! Thank you for sharing this. I love raw goat milk as long as it's fresh!

[@Guildbrookfarm]

Thanks for watching!

You two are cute together. I like the dynamic of seeing you both together in videos. Our first experience was baking a pumpkin? pie with goat milk, as we have a child with lactose intolerance. It was canned goat milk, and the pie we thought inedible because it smelled of goat or dog hair. I do love goat cheese, but haven't tried any fresh goat milk yet. We also think of getting milking goats in the future, but need proper fencing and more time for milking/attending to. Best wishes on getting and keeping your new goats.

+Janice B I have beard nothing but awful things about canned or grocery store goat milk. I'm glad I waited to try fresh. I can see where people who may have tried canned first might be turned off by it

Great video. Even though the guy screwed it up, he was man enough to admit the small error. ✊ RESPECT

[@byrds58sylvie]

Great idea to try it out. Ive always heard that goat milk is easier for humans to digest, compared to cow's milk. Awesome video! 😂
