Milk Bar™ 1 4L

Product Code: 910120

This fabulous feeder interstacks with the teats fitted so you can carry multiple feeders to the calf pens and reduce storage space.
The teat is locked into place with two arms making this easy change teat system is a hit with people who find the pull through style challenging.
Gradients are marked every 250 ml for super accuracy and there is no waste with the low milk channel.
Fitted with a Milk Bar Teat to maximise saliva production.

You can hang the Milk Bar 1 4L on rails or pipes up to 25mm wide. Make sure you don’t force the feeder onto a wider rail as it can result in cracking the base of the hook.
This feeder is made from a different manufacturing process and so while it may not be as durable as the rest of the range, it has such great features that it is very popular!
To give your calves the best drinking position, hang the Milk Bar 1 4L on a rail around 80cm high. This puts the teat at 60cm which is the optimum height for calves and helps the oesophageal groove to close.

How do I change my teats?

Changing teats on this feeder is incredibly easy!

  1. Open the teat arms
  2. Remove the teat and replace with a new teat
  3. Click the arms pack into place!

 

Milk is a difficult substance to clean off of surfaces. You need hot water to remove the fat, but the heat can bake the protein onto the surface. Using warm water to get rid of the protein leaves a film of fat. When fats and proteins stick to the surface of equipment, they form a biofilm, a nutrient-rich layer in which bacteria grow.
The biofilm protects bacteria from the cleaning process and results in equipment that appears clean but has bacteria on the surface. The cleaning process not only needs to remove fat and protein from surfaces but prevent the formation of a biofilm.
All Milk Bar Teats are made from a natural rubber, much the same as your milking liners. Natural rubber absorbs the milk fat and protein which causes the teats to become softer.
Using an Alkali Detergent a few times a week with strip the milk fat and protein from the rubber so your calves can enjoy the controlled flow for longer.

  1. Rinse your feeder with water.
  2. Use an alkali detergent, following the manufacturers instructions.
  3. Using a brush to lightly scrub the feeder and outside of the teats making sure to bend the teats over.
  4. Rinse clean.
