The answer is simple but the taste is something else! Homogenisation is a process the milk goes through that affects the cream globules in the milk. Homogenised means the cream is mixed into the milk while un-homogenised means the cream is not mixed in, giving you that old fashioned taste with the cream on top. The fat and cream content between Homogenised and Un-Homogenised milk does not change as the cream is not removed. It just visually appears different.

PIRSA Evaluation of Textured Milk for Fleurieu Milk Company To make barista style coffee, a technique call texturing or stretching of the milk is used that heats the milk and also results in a micro foam being distributed into the milk. The mouthfeel, taste, and amount of micro foam produced is dictated by the levels of lactose, fat and protein in the milk. Fleurieu Milk Company had received anecdotal reports from customers using their Jersey Premium Full Cream homogenised milk that it resulted in more coffees per Litre in comparison to other milks. This short report summarises a brief investigation undertaken to verify these anecdotal reports. This work was undertaken by the South Australian Research and Development Institute under a funded Food Technology Program provided by Primary Industries and Regions South Australia.

Lactose intolerance is the reduced ability to digest milk sugars, due to insufficient amounts of the gut enzyme called lactase. Symptoms include bloating, gas, abdominal pain and diarrhoea. To counteract this and enable people that suffer from the above to digest milk the lactose can be removed from milk. We do this by adding an enzyme which converts all Lactose in the milk to Glucose and Galactose. Glucose and Galactose are sweeter than Lactose which makes the Lactose Free Milk taste sweeter than standard milk.

Yes, however ours is more than half the amount of sugar per 100g

At this stage no, however we are always considering new and innovative products for our customers.

The treatment of all animals is important to the Fleurieu Milk Company. Whilst we purchase milk from multiple supplying farms who all have their own systems and procedures with calves, we do try to work as closely possible with them on this issue. The majority of our supplying farmers use artificial insemination to ensure up to 98% of their calves are heifers who are nurtured into the milking herd a couple of years later. Some of the remaining bull calves reared as service sires for other herds. The remainder of bull calves are sold to the abattoirs in accordance with Dairy Authority Guidelines.
