Clean in Place (CIP) systems are a crucial component of producing high quality milk. This podcast discusses the factors involved in ensuring that the cleaning and sanitizing process is effective. Key factors that need to be monitored include: water temperature; timing of cleaning and sanitizing cycles; volume of water; velocity of water through the system; drainage effectiveness and the chemical balance between cleaning products and the farm’s water supply.
