Feed Flavors in Milk and Milk Products

Market-Milk Specialist, Bureau of Dairy Industry, United States Department of Agriculture

ABSTRACT

The investigators on the effect of feeds on the flavor and odor of milk have shown that:

Many feeds impart their flavor to milk, the intensity of the imparted flavor depending upon the character of the feed, quantity consumed, and the time the feed is consumed in relation to the time of milking.

Feed flavors enter milk mainly through the body of the cow and in most cases these flavors are not imparted to milk except for a few hours after feeding.

Strong feed flavors are reduced in intensity and slight flavors may be eliminated by proper aeration.

Highly flavored feeds should be fed immediately after, never just before, milking.
