To keep your Udderly EZ™ Milker working reliably and hygienically:
Clean Immediately After Each Use: Rinse all parts that come into contact with milk (bottles, silicone inserts, tubing, valves) with warm water immediately after use to prevent buildup.
Use Gentle Detergent: Wash components thoroughly with a mild, non-scented dish soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage silicone or plastic parts.
Sanitize Regularly: For added safety, sanitize by boiling the silicone inserts and bottles or using a livestock-safe sanitizing solution approved for dairy equipment.
Avoid Moisture in the Pump: Never submerge the hand pump. Wipe it clean with a damp cloth and dry it thoroughly.
Inspect for Wear: Check valves and silicone inserts regularly for signs of cracking or wear and replace as needed to maintain performance and hygiene.
Store Properly: Once fully dry, store all parts in a clean, dry container to keep them free from dust and contamination.
