My friend recommended us to buy milk at this farm. Though she said that neither she nor her friends were able to make cottage cheese from it. She didn't know the reason. I spent part of my childhood in the family of my grandparents in a village. They had a cow very average compare to the village cows. I am experienced in making many dairy products from milk. We payed $7 for a gallon of milk at OM farm. The owner said that milk was fresh and whole from the morning milking. It was noon, but milk was still very warm. The color of it was bluish, the taste was not smooth since the fat was already aggregated and felt as separate particles. After standing for a day in a refrigerator the total amount of milk fat was in 2.5 times less than from the cow of my Russian grandparents. I was not able to make cottage cheese from this milk too - most of solids were removed at the farm. I was not capable to make decent sour milk - there were no most of species of lactobacteria in that milk. It means that this milk was processed / I have doctorate degree and quite experienced in microbiology.
