In the scientific process of making raw milk a product for consumption, it takes a minimum of two hours, on average, for the milk to reach the chilling facility after it is produced freshly on a farm. Since raw milk’s properties do not allow it to be a very long-lasting product, it becomes imperative to chill the milk as soon as it is produced. This is a process that is followed throughout the world. However, developing countries like India, with its highly arid weather conditions, especially during the summers in the villages, face many difficulties in keeping up with this method sustainably.
When raw milk is not chilled immediately, it becomes a playground for different kinds of bacteria to come and play. Studies have shown that milk exposed to room temperature constantly or delayed in cooling, many biochemical changes occur. Due to the presence of these enzymes and bacteria, the milk becomes unpalatable with a strong bitter and yeast-like flavour in it. The level of fatty acids in raw milk depends upon the temperature at which the milk was stored.
