Just had to run to the comments after reading the first chapter to post a little PSA. Raw milk should be scalded before serving. People who claim their grandparents and great grandparents drank "raw" milk and were just fine did NOT drink raw milk. Scalding milk is a home pasteurization process that was women's work and therefore rarely documented or commented on, but did take place in every household. It was to prevent, Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, Campylobacter, and other Pathogens: Including Brucella, Cryptosporidium, and the bacteria responsible for tuberculosis and Q fever.
