Hi

Oh yes, the bags....I fully intend to pack at least 6 x 4 pint plastic containers from the milk....and will sterilise them and reuse. My friends use an open topped jug...pop it in in the bag......cut the corners off and pour....but when you get near to the end of the bag it sometimes falls out of the jug and if you ain't ready for it....lets just say...'A little milk can go a long way!!!!'

I fully agree with the bags, from the save the planet viewpoint, but want something with a top and handle, which contains more than 2 pints, to make it more user friendly...lol....
lol

Ah, the bags, you'll be wanting the two and half micron bags. Otherwise you're into spillage issues.

We have no problem with our bags or our jug here, not sure why your friend is? You only need to snip one corner of the bag, I have never had the bag fall out of the jug.

I'd rather not have to wear the hairnet but will inquire. One never knows.

I suppose it is unfair to wallow in the face of those who have lesser bag management skills than yourself.

Any experience that involves both bagged milk and ear plugs is fine in my book.

Don't bother - they still sell milk in gallon plastic containers in Detroit and they're generally less than $2 for a gallon! Sometimes as low as $1.70 a gallon!

Hi Gavin
Ahhhhhhh.....but are you sure it has come from de cow?.......How can you be so sure? Don't know if I would like a gallon container sitting in my fridge door though!!!
