Phone 0800 757 387 or 07 573 8781 The Ministry for Primary Industries New Zealand Code of Practice for the design and operation of Farm Dairies has new milk cooling standards that come into effect in 2018.
The following changes will be introduced progressively from 1 August 2016 through to 1 January 2018: •Milk must be cooled to 10°C or below within 4 hours of the commencement of milking. • Milk must be cooled to 6°C or below within 6 hours of the commencement of milking and within 2 hours of the completion of milking. •Milk must be held at or below 6°C until collection or the next milking •The milk must not exceed 10°C during subsequent milking’s (Dairy NZ, 2017). Milk cooling affects milk quality. The quicker the milk is cooled after milking, the better the quality when it is collected from the farm. If you need any advice or help with meeting these new regulations, please don't hesitate to give us a call. Kind Regards, The R Corfield Refrigeration & Electrical Team As the nights are getting colder and you start to feel the chill, make sure you take the time to check that the electric blanket is working correctly before you put it on the bed; as it can pose a threat if it is faulty.
Please follow the instructions listed below and if you have any issues please contact our friendly office team on 07 573 8781 or fill out a 'contact us' form through our website. Before use- Check for damage or wear and check again each time you change the sheets. Inspect the cord, control switch and plug for any damage and look for any kinks, worn or exposed wires, scorch marks, or breaks in the heating element. How to check- Turn the blanket on for 15 minutes at the highest setting (don’t leave the room) and then turn it off. Run your hand over the blanket and feel for hot spots. A hot spot means the heating coil has been kinked or damaged. This could lead to fire or electric shock. Take it to a licenced electrical worker, like us, for repair or replace it with a new one. SAFETY Use an electric blanket only to warm the bed. Switch if off before you get in, so as to avoid overheating. Overheating can be life threatening, especially for the very young, ill, or elderly.
Stay Safe, The R Corfield Refrigeration & Electrical Team Secure any loose Items and secure any objects that may come loose and cause more damage. If in doubt, get out! When you need to get out: Civil Defence recommends you act quickly if you see rising water. Before the storm, you should find out where the closest high ground is and how to get there. If your home or business is at risk from flooding, it may pay to move somewhere on higher ground as the water rises. If you have a disability or need support, make contact with your support network. Where possible, move pets inside or to a safe place. Food and water: On their hazard management page, Civil Defence recommends you collect enough food and water for at least seven days in the face of disaster. This includes dried or canned food (remember to have a working can opener!) and bottled drinking water. Civil Defence recommends three litres per person per day. If power and water supplies are cut off, it's important to have equipment you might need to prepare food, such as a portable gas stove, extra water, matches or lighter. In case of flooding, bugs from the ground surface can contaminate foods. Civil Defence recommends you wash cooking utensils in hot soapy water if they get covered by floodwater. If food items are exposed to floodwater, destroy all unpackaged and non-waterproof covered ones. Civil Defence recommends: "IF IN DOUBT, THROW IT OUT!" They also advise you know where and how to switch off your power, water and/or gas. Travel: If you are planning to travel for the Easter holidays, they recommend you consider delaying your travel for a few days as the weather should improve from Saturday onwards. Keep up to date with the latest road and weather information on the NZTA website. Drive carefully if you have to travel and expect delays! Follow the instructions of Civil Defence and emergency services.
