    Yes so long as your compressors are sized right

    Very hard not to cut the hands/arms of yourself too

    The super glue is very handy for the cuts too. Better than any plaster

    how often do people open their plate cooler? If its not giving a problem? The crap that was in mine yesterday was very bad. I last opened it in November. Used to have to open it every month before this

    I always leave a sock in for washing, usually just rinse out the old sock after milking, and new one on before next milking. No plans on ever opening the plate cooler.

    Serious froth in the overflow jar this morning also though!

    Should that be happening in a new parlour?

    New parlours make no difference to froth they can be worse than old ones.

    I was told before froth shouldn't happen because the pipe goes into side of the milk vessel and the pipes are bigger so there's not as much pressure on milk when hits jar causing it to froth

    was going to go with a 10hp compressor, perhaps to 5hp ones would be safer in case one would fail the other would keep going
