I raise goats, some for meat and some for milk and have used goats
milk interchangably with cows and have noticed no diffrernce unless -
The goats have been with a buck or are downwind of a buck.
The goats have been eating medicated feed, some of which leaves a
nasty aftertaste. Wild onions in the pasture also leave a taste.
If the source of your milk is controlling for the above the milk
should work like cows milk but a bit higher in butterfat. Hope this
helps.
