I grew up on two cream farms. The cows were machine milked, the milk was put through a hand turned [my job] cream separator and taken to the butter factory daily. On the first farm the factory was just down the road, so the cream can [20 gallons] was put on the back seat of the car and driven to the factory, pick up yesterdays can and return. It was interesting to watch the grader, he put a stick into the cream, tasyted the cream, spat the product out on the floor and declared whether it was AA, A- B, etc , no machines just a tounge that contriolled the amount you got paid on, and The second farm had a pickup system, but it cost money and my father wasn't that happy with the idea.
The skim milk was sent down the hill to the pigs. Our milk couldn't get any rawer, straight from the teat, warm, and tasty.
