The fresh milk that comes from cows is a mixture of water, fat (also called butterfat or milkfat), and milk solids. The milk solids are made of proteins and carbohydrates. The major milk protein is casein, which is dispersed throughout the milk. Lactose is the primary carbohydrate found in milk. The enzyme lactase is used by the body to break the lactose down to galactose and glucose, two simple sugars that the body can digest. People who do not have this enzyme are "lactose intolerant" and cannot digest the lactose.

Butter is a very concentrated form of milk. Butter is composed of 82% fat, 16% water and 2% milk solids. The fat in milk is suspended in the mixture; by churning or agitating unhomogenized milk, the fat breaks out of the mixture in the size of rice grains. The butterfat clumps together and separates from the water - which is known as buttermilk. The buttermilk can also be used to make evaporated milk. The butter is then kneaded to remove more buttermilk. The traditional method of churning butter takes about 40-60 minutes. Modern methods can produce butter in seconds.

Ice cream and other frozen treats can be made from a variety of milks - buttermilk, condensed milk, cream or whey (the liquid part in cheese production). Ice cream must contain at least 10% fat and 20% milk solids to be called ice cream in the United States. Frozen yogurt must contain at least 3.25% milkfat and 8.25% milk solids. Ice cream is a mixture of milk, sugar, cream, flavoring and stabilizer. The stabilizer is used to prevent ice crystals from forming in the ice cream. The ingredients are mixed, pasteurized, then homogenized (to keep a smooth texture). The mix is then quickly cooled to 40o F."
