If you’ve heard people talking about A2 ghee lately, you're not alone. This golden goodness is becoming a must-have in every health-conscious kitchen. But have you ever wondered how A2 ghee is made?

At Urban Farms, we believe in keeping things natural, traditional, and transparent. In this blog, we’ll walk you through how our pure A2 ghee travels from desi cow farms straight to your table—just the way nature intended.

The global A2 milk market size was valued at USD 1.98 billion in 2022 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 15.6% from 2023 to 2030

With the rise in awareness about digestive health, immunity, and clean eating, A2 ghee demand in India has grown by over 35% year-on-year? since 2021.

What is A2 Ghee and Why is it Special?

A2 ghee is made from the milk of indigenous Indian cow breeds like Gir, Sahiwal, and Tharparkar. These cows naturally produce A2 beta-casein protein, which is believed to be healthier and easier to digest than the A1 protein found in regular milk.

Benefits of A2 Ghee:

• Good for digestion and gut health
• Boosts immunity
• Rich in Omega-3 and vitamins A, D, E, and K
• Lactose-free and safe for most people with dairy sensitivities

Step-by-Step: How A2 Ghee is Made at Urban Farms

Let’s break it down for you in simple steps.

1. Desi Cows on Natural Farms

We begin with our desi cows, which are free-grazing and well-fed on a chemical-free diet. These cows are not injected with hormones, and we follow ethical dairy practices.

• No cruelty, only care
• Naturally-fed and stress-free cows
• Clean and green environment

2. Hand Milking the Traditional Way

Instead of machines, we use the hand-milking method. It’s gentle, hygienic, and keeps the milk's natural nutrients intact.

• Milk is collected fresh every morning
• Quick quality checks to ensure purity

3. The Bilona Method – Grandma’s Secret Recipe

This is where the magic happens!
We use the traditional Bilona method to make A2 ghee:

• First, the milk is turned into curd naturally overnight
• Then, the curd is churned slowly in both directions to get makhan (butter)
• The butter is heated on a low flame to extract pure golden ghee

This slow process locks in all the natural aroma and nutrients.

4. Slow Heating for Maximum Nutrition

Unlike commercial ghee, we don’t rush the process. The butter is heated slowly in small batches to avoid burning and to retain:

• Natural aroma
• Nutritional value
• Rich golden color

5. Filtering, Testing & Eco-Friendly Packaging

Once the ghee is ready, it’s:

• Filtered for any impurities
• Lab-tested for quality, texture, and shelf life
• Packed in glass jars to preserve freshness and avoid plastic contamination
