I am enjoying your thoughts, observations, travel and writing. I hadn't thought about raw milk, unpasteurized ( always wondered what that meant) and pasteurized as temperature spectrums other then the legal definition.
The clearer temperature ranges help mark these divisions. Also, Creating the happy habitat for our friends the bacteria hidden in each batch of milk and cheese.
An insightful piece on what seems to be an unnecessarily divisive topic.

Thank you! This is the real point, the creation of habitat for various types of microbes and how the cheese make is a form of cultivation.
I found this conversation fascinating and has given me lots to think about. Also gives me some leeway when experimenting with a new cheese.
So many keen and nuanced observations. Thanks for sharing your insights, Trevor - I like the way you approach this topic!
I really liked this way to talk about the pasteurized/raw milk divide!
