Usually, really good.@Kiwi Pete what would your bactoscan be like in the shoulders of the year? I think multipower is organic like me and I guess he is on a similar bacto bonus so wants to keep it low?
Would sometimes creep up if we used a lot of emollient, or the liners got a bit stuffed and we thought we'd just hold out til the end then I learnt to change them late autumn so they'd be slightly broken in for those badly swollen heifers.
Worst bactos were either from folks pulling the filters and letting cheese into the plate cooler, or when the tank didn't wash properly, and we had a mystery one that was from the changeover tap on the back of the tank not washing due to a blocked hose in its own little wash injector.. oh and one of the auto drains in the rotary didn't seal off and sometimes used to suck dirty water in
It's a wonder I still drink milk
Short answer - really good.
Long answer says there's always bloody something to go wrong!!
Oh and sometimes silage would spike it, but that was rare.
I am a fussy one.
First job was always study the docket for a pattern.
