I just happened to come across your channel and I enjoyed it even though this was a milking machine review. Do I own a farm? NO, Do I own goats? NO, heck Do I even own a house? NO, but I really enjoyed your video and I look forward to seeing your channel grow!
I have the same milking machine 🥰. For cleaning, I reconnect all the hoses after emptying the milk, fill a sink with hot soapy water, then hot water with a little bleach and then rinse water. The machine pulls through the hose to the pail and then I just brush clean pail I love goats milk, I have so much less issues with it than cow's milk.
@deannavestal1394 Just be careful. I put my can in storage and then. I opened it and it was mold on the bottom. I changed all my milking cans with smooth bottom
Is there a reason why you don't drink the goat milk? I have two Alpine nannies with kids a bought the battery powered milking machine. I plan on drinking the milk.
I tried a similar machine, but it just not latches on my goat teats (Lamancha, quite a big teats). Any ideas how to solve it? I would like to use the machine instead of hand milking to save hands from developing arthritis or some other possible issues. Thank you.
Thanks so much for this video! I have the same machine and I was wondering if you don't clamp the lines before you attach them to the teat? Also the dial on the vacuum pump - how high do you like to turn it up?
Hey Kelsey the only time I use the clamp is if one teat runs out of milk before the other. You must have an upgraded pump, this one only has one speed!
Sorry for just getting back with you. Yes we are still using the same unit. Great little machine. Just make sure to tighten the screws once a week. I have lost a couple.
Could you send me the link for the one you got? I got one and we just tried for the first time and I feel that its not suctioning properly. I stopped and still got lots of milk by hand. I really want the pump to work. ;(
If you have a small setup it works great. I think if I had more than two does I would spend the extra money for a higher quality machine. I have sure enjoyed it for what I do!
I just bought what looks to be the same off of Amazon. I have Nubian/boar cross with larger teats. I did not try let the suction pull them in my first try and just gave up and went to hand milking. Do you think a buffer teat will fit?
I had an alpine with larger teats and it would just suck the teat in. I almost felt like it was faster to just milk her by hand but the machine allowed me to work on getting the other goats ready.
Terri - this machine is VERY loud! It also ended up rattling one of the screws loose so make sure you tighten them every week or so. Here is a link to this one. I think there are a lot of the same that come from China. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08KCYF96B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The brand is Vogvigo
I don't recommend that stainless steel The bottom has a seam where it collects spoiled milk. Have to boil every time for sanidizing too much headache. I modified my hoses with inline filter and valve off Amazon.
Nice info, thank you for your effort to teach us

Thanks Ashley! This really means a lot! I plan to get some content up with the new goats now that the weather is warming up!
Can I ask a question. I bought a 2L milker and the teat cups have pvc in them is that normal am I suppose to take the pvc out
I took the pvc out which was not a simple task however I have suction no compulsion no releases so I sent it back
Do you not disinfect the teats before and after milking?
We don’t disinfect most of the time since we are only using the milk to bottle feed the kids.
@@RandyMangumTannerMangum_611 ah, makes sense 👍
Thank you for sharing.. Wow, my son refuses to drink any milk other than goat milk.. My husband refused to try it for years, now he is hooked!! :)
I need to give it a shot!

What machine is it? They all look alike and I need one

One year later, has the machine held up okay? I’m about to buy one today.
The machine is still running like a charm.
Still going strong. Just make sure to keep tabs on the screws. They work themselves loose.
@@nebopackgoats3332 Have you ever had any issues with the pulsator not working, and if you did, how did you resolve it?

Can you tell me which milker this is from Amaxon?

Thank you for this been looking at the cheap machines but so worried about taking the plunge do you have a link for the one you have?
It’s a mystery. I can’t see a link or a description anywhere and his description narrows it down to about 10 brands.
Hello! I’m looking to different milking machines for my small homestead. I was wondering if you are still happy with the machine?
If you have a small setup it works great. I think if I had more than two does I would spend the extra money for a higher quality machine. I have sure enjoyed it for what I do!
@@nebopackgoats3332 thanks for the advice. We currently have three but will be bumping to four next year and five the following.
@@semojohomestead Nice! If you are out Utah way look us up, we will be selling all our doelings and bucklings next year.
@@nebopackgoats3332 we are actually in SC. Love y’all’s idea of training them to be pack animals.
Do you have the link available for this machine?

Would this work on Saanen? Large teets
I think it would work great! I have used this on a big alpine and it worked great!

I need this for my jersey would it work?
I believe so. I had a am alpine with big teets and it still worked great!
What are some real good goat milking machine brands?
It’s so loud 🙉 what brand is this please?

@@nebopackgoats3332 thank you
Did you say you don't drink goat milk ?
Ya we use it for bottle feeding
Hello, reguards from Brazil
Wow you got it cheaper than I did mine was almost 300.00.
Oh dang!
Yeah I said the same thing but more😂
What is the name of the machine?
I found the milk machine brand in comments, but Amazon no longer carries it. Was wondering what you purchased & is it working for you?
I don't recommend that stainless steel The bottom has a seam where it collects spoiled milk. Have to boil every time for sanidizing too much headache. I modified my hoses with inline filter and valve off Amazon.
Curious why you guys don’t drink goat milk? :)
Why don’t u drink it?
Why bottle feed the babies instead of letting them nurse from the mamas? Seems like an unnecessary step?
The kids can often take more milk than they really need. The milk is valuable so a lot of people bottle feed the kids a milk replacer formula.
We use the kids as pack goats so bottle feeding slows the goats to imprint on us and they end up following you on the trail like a family dog.
Thumbs up
I would subscribe, but this doesn’t really tell me which one to buy. It’s not really helpful.
