Wanted Milking machine
« on: July 23, 2019, 03:30:28 pm »
I’ve got a jersey cow that I hand milk, just wondering if anyone has a milking machine that they no longer use and are willing to sell.  I will also be grateful for any advice on makes and models to buy if I can’t find a second hand machine. 
I’m based in East Sussex.
Thanks for any replies.

These seem good quality for the price. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for

This! Ours (goat version) has been running non-stop for almost 10 years now, with replacement tubes obviously and teat cup liners, but no other hassle. You do get what you pay for.

Just remember that goats and cows use different pulsation speeds so if you use it for both you will have to alter that each time.
