When I do give in & shorten a pair, I leave enough fabric to turn under twice. At the seams, I trim out the seam allowance where it will be turned under on the first turn. I treat the cut edge that will be at the top edge of the hem with a good soaking of FrayChek. I use thread for jeans & hem from the outside.
Goat's milk does contain lactose and it has almost as much as cow's milk. Cheeses made from both cow's milk and goat's milk will have a reduction in the amount of lactose due to the fermentation process. For this reason many people who are lactose intolerant are able to eat cheeses.
The main differences between fermented milk samples resulted from the addition of WPC, which caused an increase in total solids, mainly due to the protein content (Table 1). The lactose content of goat's milk before fermentation was enriched by 1.2% with skim milk powder over its natural content of 4.5%. Addition of 3% WPC and 5% WPC further increased the lactose content by 1.3% and 2.2%, respectively. Lactose was extensively utilized during fermentation (Table 1).
