Pasteurizing calf milk

[Cowski]

Is anyone successfully pasturizing whole milk on farm to feed to calves? If so, batch or continuous flow and what are the running costs? We would be looking to feed around 2000lts a day at peak in the spring and not keen on a batch pasteurizer due to the running costs.

my understanding is that there is too much room for error in continuous flow especially if you are trying to kill the johnes bugs (MAP)

when i was feeding pasteurised milk , scours became a thing of the past , they did better than on powder and had a good even temperature every day
