Milk cooling rules tighten Max Dewhirst (left) says the Vari-COOL milk snap-chilling unit he has installed in both of his dairies is a big step in future-proofing new Ministry of Primary Industry requirements for milk cooling. He chose to install the unit rather than make additions to his old system, and believes his bonus will come in power saved by recovering the heat from milk. Matt Cammock (right) and Southfreeze Dairy Ltd staff did the installation. More on the new regulations: page 58.
