LPT 311: Milk and Milk Products Technology (1+1)

STORAGE OF MILK

• Milk storage vats or silos are refrigerated and come in various shapes and sizes. Milk is stored on farm at 4 degrees Celsius and less for no longer than 48 hours. 
• Vats and silos are agitated to make sure that the entire volume remains cold and milkfat does not separate from the milk.
• After milk has been collected, storage vats and stainless steel pipes are thoroughly cleaned before the farmer milks again
