Reviewer 2 Report

This manuscript studies the effect of adding agro-industrial by-products spent coffee grounds to the diet of dairy goats on the quality of goat milk, which provides a new way for the waste utilization of spent coffee grounds, which has some novelty.

1. In 2.1, the addition amount of spent coffee grounds is only set to low-dose (50g/d) and high-dose (100g/d), why not set middle-dose (75g/d)?

2. In the results and discussion, the author mainly discusses the effect of adding spent coffee grounds to dairy goat diet on Caffeine levels and lipid metabolism in goat milk. The influence of physical and chemical properties such as protein and pH? These are also the basic characteristics of goat milk. If there are relevant data, it is recommended to supplement this information
