Why and how is Summerhill Goat Milk pasteurized?
We pasteurize our milk to ensure that our milk is free of bacteria or other harmful organisms. We have found that the best way to preserve the delicious taste of our milk is to use a traditional pasteurization process that gently heats the milk to 145 degrees Fahrenheit and holds it there for 30 minutes. This process also enables you to enjoy our milk for longer periods of time, as pasteurization increases the shelf life of our goat milk from 3-5 days (raw) to 18 days (pasteurized).
