Farm Science with a Splash of Common Sense 🥛❄️

We often get two questions from customers – and since we started selling milk in glass bottles this year, the first one has been popping up a lot.

1. Why does liquid expand when frozen?

When you freeze a liquid, the molecules spread out and take up more space. That’s why we tell customers to always decant a little milk before freezing it in plastic bottles – plastic can stretch a bit to cope with the pressure.

Glass bottles are another story. They can’t flex. So, when the milk expands, there’s only one outcome: the lid can pop off, or the glass can crack or shatter completely. The laws of nature win every time!

If you’ve ever had beer bottles burst during fermentation, or left wine in the freezer to “quickly chill” before guests arrive (and then remembered it at midnight…), you’ll know exactly what we mean.

2. Does freezing destroy the nutrition?

No – not even close! Freezing preserves nutrients. If milk or cheese is frozen while fresh, it stays fresh. That’s the whole point of freezing.

Our white mould cheeses still taste amazing after freezing, and the fluffy curd stays just as fluffy. Science wins again – not all technology is voodoo, some of it is simply clever and proven.

Bottom line:

  • Liquids expand when frozen – so give them space, especially in glass bottles.
  • Freezing won’t strip your milk or cheese of its goodness or flavour.

A little science, a little care, and you can enjoy our products fresh now or later.

Thank you for your continued support .

Just doing the best we can –

Open day picnic review

The Farm Picnic day went well.

The day was blustery and cool so we think that deterred people but the experience was still fun for those that came. We had lots of complements on the cheese being delicious.

Everyone enjoyed holding the baby Kids. The girls helped here and where great. The Boys helped on the farm trail and everyone helped get the farm ready so Wow! Spring cleaning all done!

The farm looks great even the wisteria is in flower, usually eaten by now by Crimson Rosella’s! It was a great trial run and we hope to develop the idea so more families know about it. Anyway check out the photos below on it when you get time and give us any suggestions or feed back.

If you have a group that wants to visit the farm please contact us via email or phone and organise a time. We would love to have you. You might be travelling past please drop in, call or email if you want make sure we don’t miss you!
