HiPP German Goat PRE is HiPP's organic infant formula made from goat's milk in Germany, labelled from birth. Its protein comes from skimmed goat's milk and skimmed goat's milk powder, with no whey, lactose is its only carbohydrate, and it adds galacto-oligosaccharides but no lactic culture. It comes in a 400 g box, one 4.3 g scoop per 30 ml of water, and it is close to the Dutch goat Stage 1 without matching it: seven rows differ, chloride by the most. ## Key takeaways - Organic infant formula from skimmed goat's milk, labelled from birth, with lactose as the only carbohydrate. - Close to HiPP's Dutch goat Stage 1 but not the same: of the rows both packs print, seven differ, chloride most of all at 70 mg against 58 mg. - The box says its proteins are similar to cow's milk proteins and declares traces of cow's milk. - The NHS says goat's milk formula is not suitable for a baby with a cow's milk allergy. *Front of the box, German label* - **Age**: From birth - **Size**: 400 g box - **Starch**: None - **HiPP article no.**: DA20000 - **Base**: Goat's milk: skimmed goat's milk and skimmed goat's milk powder - **Carbohydrate**: Lactose only - **DHA**: 13.2 mg / 100 ml - **Combiotik**: GOS only - **Organic**: EU organic - **Contains**: Milk, Fish oil ## In this series - [HiPP goat's milk formula · hub]() - [HiPP German Goat Stage 2 · product]() - [HiPP Dutch Goat Stage 1 · product]() - [HiPP German PRE · product]() ## Guides for this pack - [How to prepare HiPP formula · guide]() - [HiPP PRE vs Stage 1 · comparison]() - [Every HiPP Stage 1 pack · hub]() - [HiPP goat vs cow formula · comparison]() - [Where to buy HiPP formula · page]() ## Where to buy Not sold by milkatlas in the United States We do not sell this product in the United States.

The ingredient list starts with skimmed goat's milk and lactose, then organic palm, rapeseed and sunflower oil and skimmed goat's milk powder, with no whey and no cow's milk ingredient. (Source 2) Fish oil adds DHA at 13.2 mg per 100 ml, and HiPP adds galacto-oligosaccharides from organic lactose; there is no lactic culture. The milks, lactose, oils and galacto-oligosaccharides are marked organic. (Source 2) *The ingredients as printed on the box, in German. The asterisk marks organic ingredients, and the heart the organically farmed palm oil.* Evidence · Manufacturer claim The box calls its A2 goat's milk especially valuable for babies' tummies, and HiPP's site for health professionals claims good tolerability and less colic for its goat's milk formulas. Those are HiPP's claims, graded here as the manufacturer's.

The last column is the range for infant formula in Regulation (EU) 2016/127, Annex I, per 100 kcal unless it says per 100 ml. The label prints values per 100 ml only, so the per 100 kcal column is calculated from them. Every value is the one printed on HiPP's artwork for 100 ml of made-up feed, which is 12.9 g of powder in 90 ml of water. The Dutch goat Stage 1 is close but not identical: seven of the rows both packs print differ, chloride by the most, and this box prints a linoleic acid row and a sugars row the Dutch tin leaves out. (Source 2) (Source 8) *The top of the composition table on the box, per 100 ml. If the box and this page ever disagree, the box is right and we log a correction.* Evidence · Regulation EU law allows infant formula made from goat's milk protein, under the same limits as cow's milk formula, in Regulation (EU) 2016/127, Annex I. In 2012 the European Food Safety Authority found goat milk protein can be suitable: in a trial of 200 infants, growth on goat's milk formula did not differ from growth on cow's milk formula. (Source 3) (Source 6) ## How do you prepare it? Boil fresh drinking water and let it cool to 40 to 50 °C, pour it into the bottle and add one level scoop (4.3 g) for every 30 ml. Shake it, cool it to about body temperature and check it; the box says never to warm a feed in the microwave.

The feed size column is the volume in the bottle after the powder dissolves. - **Frisches Trinkwasser abkochen und auf ca. 40 - 50 °C abkühlen.**: Boil fresh drinking water and let it cool to about 40 to 50 °C. - **1 gestrichener Messlöffel = ca. 4,3 g**: One level scoop is about 4.3 g. - **Nahrung daher vor jeder Mahlzeit frisch zubereiten und sofort füttern. Nahrungsreste nicht wiederverwenden.**: Make each feed fresh and give it straight away. Do not reuse leftovers. Evidence · Manufacturer claim The box asks for cooled water without giving a reason, and this formula has no lactic culture to protect. The CDC advises water of around 70 °C for babies under two months, born early or with a weakened immune system. We state both and defer to your pediatrician. (Source 2) (Source 4) ## How much should a baby drink? **Feeding chart by age** | Age | Feeds a day | Water per feed | Scoops | Made-up bottle | Water a day | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Weeks 1 to 2 | 7 to 8 | 60 ml | 2 | 70 ml | 420 to 480 ml | | Weeks 3 to 4 | 5 to 7 | 90 ml | 3 | 100 ml | 450 to 630 ml | | Weeks 5 to 8 | 5 to 6 | 120 ml | 4 | 135 ml | 600 to 720 ml | | Months 3 to 4 | 5 | 150 ml | 5 | 170 ml | 750 ml | | Month 5 | 4 to 5 | 180 ml | 6 | 200 ml | 720 to 900 ml | | From month 6 | 4 | 210 ml | 7 | 235 ml | 840 ml | HiPP's own chart from the pack; water a day is feeds times water per feed. Babies vary, and a hungry or sleepy baby is a better guide than the table. The chart runs from the first week to six months and after, and the box says solid food can start from the fifth month after talking to the pediatrician or midwife, each new solid meal replacing a bottle. (Source 2) Evidence · Manufacturer claim The chart is HiPP's guide; the box says every baby is different and need not finish the bottle. ## Who is it for, and who is it not for? The box says it is for babies from birth, as the only food or alongside breast milk, and can follow breastfeeding or another infant formula. It asks parents to talk to the pediatrician or midwife before using an infant formula. (Source 2) On cow's milk, the box says the formula contains proteins similar to cow's milk proteins and traces of cow's milk, and that with an existing or suspected cow's milk protein allergy it should be used only after talking to the pediatrician. (Source 2) Evidence · No evidence found The NHS says goat's milk formula is made to the same nutritional standards as cow's milk formula, is not less likely to cause allergies, and is not suitable for a baby with a cow's milk allergy. (Source 5) Our view If you want goat's milk formula from birth, this box and the Dutch goat Stage 1 tin are the same per 100 ml: buy whichever costs less per 100 g on the day. ## The same stage in other markets **Same stage, other markets** | Market | Product | Size | Starch | Ships to the United States | Sold by Organic Life Start | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Germany | HiPP Pre Anfangsmilch aus Bio Ziegenmilch (this page) | 400 g box | No | Yes | No | | Netherlands | [HiPP 1 Biologische Zuigelingenmelk op basis van Geitenmelk](https://milkatlas.com/formula/goat/hipp-dutch-goat-1/) | 400 g tin | No | Yes | Yes, US and CA | In the Netherlands HiPP sells a goat's milk Stage 1 with the same values per 100 ml and the same scoop, in a 400 g tin whose Dutch label says it must not be used with a cow's milk protein allergy.

Truly the best ## Questions parents ask ### Can HiPP German Goat PRE be used for a cow's milk allergy? Not without the pediatrician. The box says its proteins are similar to cow's milk proteins, that it contains traces of cow's milk, and that with an existing or suspected cow's milk protein allergy it should be used only after talking to the pediatrician. The NHS says goat's milk formulas are not suitable for a baby with a cow's milk allergy, and HiPP's Dutch goat tins rule it out. ### Is HiPP German Goat PRE the same as the Dutch goat Stage 1? Closely, but not exactly. Both take a 4.3 g scoop and print the same feeding chart, and of the rows both packs carry, seven differ per 100 ml. Chloride is the widest, 70 mg here against 58 mg on the Dutch tin, and potassium, magnesium and vitamin B2 move a little too. ### Is it made with whole goat's milk? No. The ingredient list names skimmed goat's milk and skimmed goat's milk powder; the fat comes from organic palm, rapeseed and sunflower oil, with fish oil for DHA. ### What does A2 mean on the box? The front says the formula is made from A2 goat's milk, and HiPP's site for health professionals says goat's milk is naturally high in A2 beta-casein, one form of a milk protein. The box does not explain it, and neither the ingredients nor the table mention it. ### What does No. 1 on the box mean? It is a sales ranking: the bottom of the box cites NielsenIQ sales data for goat's milk formula in Germany and Austria in the year to late October 2024. It says nothing about the formula itself. ### Why does the box ask for cooled water when there is no culture? The box asks for 40 to 50 °C and gives no reason, and this formula has no lactic culture, the reason HiPP gives on its Combiotik boxes. The CDC advises water of around 70 °C for babies under two months, born early or with a weakened immune system, so ask your pediatrician which to follow. ### Is HiPP German Goat PRE approved by the FDA? No. The FDA does not approve infant formulas, and this box is made in Germany for the German market. No HiPP formula is on the FDA's list of formulas marketed in the United States. ### Where can I buy HiPP German Goat PRE in the US? milkatlas does not sell it.
