Colostrum Thawer / Milk Warmer

Made our feeding routine and efficiency far greater as can use excess milk easier and store it. I put it in a churn of milk and leave - even heats a barrel of 200 l. Need to scrub after each batch of milk (particularly if colostrum) due to milk protein residue preventing efficient heating but the non-stick surface and warm acid water makes it easy. Big vulnerability is the completely inadequate domestic plug and relatively short wire - in an environment where water is used all the time, buckets of water and milk appear to attract the plug which is easily flipped in. The plug is not only not waterproof but not robust enough to protect the PCB board so have to completely dry it out before dare even try to use it. Comes with experience when a new board required at some point every year! Don't use ot to thaw (little need) but put in a bucket of water and bottle of milk and nit will hold a temperature for when you are ready.

"The Colostrum Thawer has greatly improved my colostrum management. I used to get very frustrated spending hours defrosting plastic bottles in the kitchen sink. The boiling water was doing the antibody quality no good and I was wasting precious time. We now get the Perfect Udder from the freezer, place it in a bucket of warm water, switch on the thermostat on the thawer and in around 25 minutes the colostrum is thawed thoroughly. This tool has allowed me to give my calves the best start in life and yet save time."
