Hoegger Goat Supply: Clean-up Time in the Goat Dairy

CLEAN-UP TIME

Following a sound clean-up routine reduces the risk of milkstone build-up. Immaculate milk handling is essential to producing wholesome, good tasting milk that has a long shelf life. Our high quality, concentrated cleaning products are made specifically for dairying, unlike dish detergent and laundry bleach from the grocery store.

Rinse utensils thoroughly with warm (110°-120°F) water to remove milk residue immediately after milking. Water that is too hot or too cold will "glue" the proteins and fat onto the utensils. (Never scald utensils until they have been properly rinsed and washed.)

After rinsing thoroughly, hand wash with Powdered Dairy Soap (#12G) and air or towel dry.

Mist all utensils with Powdered Dairy Sanitizer (#12F) diluted and dispensed from a spray bottle (#21E-1) just before milking and processing. Allow the dilute solution to remain on all surfaces that come in contact with the milk. The sanitizer is very dilute, never lends any flavor to the milk and ensures the lowest possible bacteria count.

Use Foaming Acid Detergent (#12G-1) once a week in place of Powdered Dairy Soap to further prevent the possibility of milkstone build-up.
