Keep it as cold as possible (put the container into a bucket of cold water as soon as you finish milking) and then just strain through a coffee filter or (as a coffee filter does a great job but takes forever!) or a very fine mesh strainer. We have drunk goats' milk for 17 years now without any ill effect and we have never bothered with pasteurising. We like our milk raw and whole as nature intended.

HOWEVER, I wouldn't give raw milk to babies and very young children or people with weakened immune sytems . It's up to everyone to decide for themselves whether they need the entirely bacteria-free sterility of pasteurised milk and if neccessary they should ask a health professional for advice.

ALSO, you probably won't be able to sell raw milk in most places, so you need to check with someone like Trading Standards or the equivalent. But you can always sell for pets and there's a whole lot of thirsty puppies out there!!
