Stardew Valley Guide: How to Make Large Milk?

Stardew Valley allows you to raise animals, including cows that produce valuable milk. However, not all milk is created equal in the game. Large Milk is a premium product that sells for more and can be used to make high-quality Cheese. This guide will explain how to get Large Milk in Stardew Valley.

The key to getting Large Milk lies in having happy, well-cared-for cows with high friendship levels. Cows will only produce Large Milk if their friendship rating is at least 200 points.

Requirements for Producing Large Milk in Stardew Valley

To increase friendship with cows, players should:

• Pet them daily (+15 friendship)
• Milk them regularly (+5 friendship)
• Let them graze on grass outside 

Cow friendship will decrease if they are:

• Not fed (-20)
• Trapped outside overnight (-20)

Keeping Cows Happy and Productive

In addition to friendship, cow mood also affects Large Milk production. To keep the mood high:

• Let cows outside to eat grass.
• Make sure they are fed daily.
• Pet them every day.
• Provide a heater in the barn during winter.

Cows that aren't fed won't produce any milk at all, so this is the most important factor.

If cows aren't producing Large Milk yet, players can sometimes purchase it from the Traveling Cart that visits Cindersap Forest on Fridays and Saturdays. Prices range from 570 to 1000 gold.

With some patience, Stardew Valley farmers can get their cows to produce that Large Milk. It takes consistent effort to keep the animals happy, but it pays off in higher profits and better goods.
