FAQs about Cream Separator

What is cream separator?

Cream separator or milk separator is machine that divides a whole milk into cream and skimmed milk (milk without fat).

What kind of milk a cream separator can process?

You can use a cream separator for goat milk, for milk of cow and sheep, for sure. Also probably you can use it for other types of milk, like milk of donkey, camel, horse, and probably all other animals, which we have never seen before.

In the video below you can see how Julianne from Dirtpatcheaven Homestead makes cream from goat milk using our cream separator Motor Sich 100-19:

Can I use a cream separator for Jersey cow milk processing?

Yes, you can. We know that Jersey cow milk has more fat than standard milk. But we already sold a lot of cream separators to Jersey cow owners and never got any reclamation. 

In what cases You need to have a cream separator machine?

Why I cannot collect cream, when it floats up to the milk surface, without the help of the cream separator machine?

Actually, You can collect cream without the help of the cream separator, but the way You do it, will not be so much effective, especially if you have goat or sheep milk. In this case, when You don’t use the cream separator machine, - be ready to leave half of the cream in the milk and to collect less fat cream than You could.

What is the maximal fat content can I get using a cream separator?

With our cream separators, you can get a cream with up to 40% of butterfat in it. The particular fat content depends on your milk quality.

How to choose a cream separator with suitable capacity?

As you already noticed, every separator has its capacity. If you need to separate 100 litres of milk every hour, the model with a capacity of 100 litres per hour would not be enough for you because you will need to clean the separator from milk fat every 30-120 minutes, depends on your milk quality.

How to set the right fat content of cream during separation?

There is a regulating screw in a cream separator. Turning it, you can make a cream thinker or thinner. It’s hard to set the accurate fat content of the cream beforehand because it depends on the quality of your milk. Usually, you have to make some trials to get the cream you want.

Plastic aluminium or stainless steel, which one is better?

Generally, stainless steel is the best material for the food industry. Some aluminium and plastic alloys can be used in food processing, but they are not as well recognised in some countries or states as stainless steel.

Do our cream separators fit the 3-A sanitary standard?

Is it profitable to process the whole milk into cream, sour cream and skimmed milk?

We believe that it’s much more profitable than selling raw milk to the big processing companies. Let’s put it this way:
- How do You think, what is more expensive: only 100 liters of whole milk or 35 liters of 10% cream and 65 liters of skimmed milk?
- What is more profitable: to sell to the customer only 1 liter of milk or to sell 1 liter of milk, 200 ml of cream (0.7-2 liters of milk depending on the cream fat content) and 200 ml of sour cream (another 0.7-2 liters of milk depending on the sour cream fat content)? That’s right! The second option is more profitable, because instead of buying just 1 liter of milk a client will buy from You at least 2.5 liters of milk, and up to 5 liters as a whole.

Cream, sour cream and skimmed milk – is this all I can do with the help of the cream separator machine, or there is something else to be produced as well?

Yes, this is correct, but:
- When You have a butter churn, You can also make butter from cream.
- When You have dairy cultures, then You can make cheese, yogurt or cheese from the skimmed milk as well. If You have to process the milk every day, put your attention to the cheese kettles we have. They will make your life much easier.

You keep selling the raw milk, don’t You?

If You do so, then it means that You are not the master of Your life and business, and that You’ve been just an employee of the large processing companies for all this time. It means that THEY decide how much to pay You and how much milk they’ll buy from You. It also means that most of the money is running away from You day by day. The money, that you could spend on developing Your farm, Your house, Yourself, Your family, Your children and Your animals. However, this money is running away from you every day, run away forever and You’ll never see them again. Well, You can keep putting up with it, or You can change this scenario once and for all.
