Foodmax Machines recently supplied a complete 500L/day milk to butter manufacturing plant to a family-run dairy farm on New Zealand’s South Island. Our butter line helped the client turn grass-fed raw milk into consistent, compliant butter for supermarkets, bakeries, and tourist retail shops. Since installation, the farm has cut labor time by more than half and passed local food safety inspection.
The Client: A Grass-Fed Dairy Farm Looking to Scale Up
The client, a small family-owned farm raising around 100 grass-fed dairy cows, had been separating cream and churning butter entirely by hand — over six hours a day, with inconsistent texture and no pasteurization equipment. Without compliant processing, sales were limited to weekend farmers’ markets only.
Looking to modernize without the cost of an imported European line, the client searched “making butter from raw milk” online and found Foodmax Machines. The client needed a turnkey system that could handle raw milk cooling, pasteurization, cream separation, and butter churning in one line. Our team followed up with several consultation calls. We understood their daily milk volume, seasonal fat content variation, target butter textures, and available space in an existing outbuilding.
