Milking a goat is really so much fun once you get the hang of it. But learning the steps of how to milk is for another post.
Today we are talking about how to store the milk once you have milked the goats. I use stainless steel bowls to milk into. After each goat I pour the milk in to a 2 gallon milk pail.
The supplies to filter and store your milk are listed below.
- 1/2 gallon mason jar
- Funnel
- Milk filter
Once I come inside, place the funnel in the mason jar and put the milk filter inside the funnel. Next, I pour the milk from the milk pail into the lined funnel.
**PRO TIP** I write the date on the lid with a dry erase marker. After we have used al the milk I use a magic eraser to wipe it clean. Now it ready to write the new date after the next milking.
Then off the the freezer for 2 hours. I USUALLY set a timer on my phone to go transfer it from the freezer to the fridge. Now your goats milk is ready to drink.
