Lots of milk

When the calf is just born the milk is not milk it is colostrum. It looks like custard! But doesn't taste like custard. It is really fatty and tastes a bit salty to me.

The milk slowly gets less yellow and more milky. It often has a bit of blood in it because the udder is so swollen straight after the calf. I am not sure if this is specific to dairy cows like Jerseys as they have been breed to have much more milk than the calf needs.

We got a lot of cream for a few days but normally the cow keeps back the cream for the calf and doesn't let it down for us. But as we have been getting 3 or 4 liters of milk twice a day there is still plenty.

I make butter by putting cream in the kitchen aid and whipping it with the whip attachment on a medium speed until it separates in to lumps of butter and liquid like this

I then add ice and wash and squeeze the butter until all the milk residue is gone. The butter keeps better if you can get rid of all the milk.

We have also had white russians

Made Kefir (drinking yogurt) and I am now making Kefir soft cheese by straining the Kefir

We have also have ice cream with our own raspberries.
