Udder is washed & dried
Milker is placed on goat
Any hand milking is done in a stainless steel pail
Every 3 or 4 goats, milk is taken from the portable milker & poured into stainless steel totes.
Then kept in a cooler with ice bath while rest of the goats are milked.
Temperture of a goat averages 102°. The milk is already at 60°-64°
when milking is finished.
Milk is strain immediately into glass jars.
Placed in our 3 door cooler -
Stored in glass jars until needed.
