Can I use the milker plugged in to the electricity so I don't run out of batteries? If so, how long will it take to extract 4-5 gallons of cow milk?

The battery charger is designed to charge the batteries and not to act as a power supply. I do have a new model just out that will milk olmost 4 gallons of milk. I will be putting it up on Amazon very soon. If you are interested in that milkier right now please let me know also send me youre e-mail address the new unit is 109.00 and shipping Thank You Dan Dansha Farms

This item must be used for a 5 gallon bucket (or tall 3 gallon size) or larger. Best for 5 gallon size as larger would take much longer to heat. It does not have a temperature control or on/off switch. Best not to plug in to electric until you have a bucket full of water and then either unplug when removing or transfer to a 2nd bucket. Height of unit is slightly taller than average 5 gallon bucket so wiring always stays outside bucket to avoid electrical shock. You can regulate heat by using a thermometer if need be or the touch(water not element) test. I use mine to heat water for carpet cleaning extraction machine so precise temperature is not critical. Hope this helps:)

Sheri. The pump needs electricity to run. You can have an electrician take electricity to it, though costly. Or, you can get a very heavy duty outdoor long extension cord. There's danger involved with that. I wouldn't turn on the filter that's on an electric extension cord and leave the house, or have children or animals near it when it is plugged in. Possible fire and or shock danger. IMO

Hi, the battery on mine did recharge in about 4 hours, it does not last very long but it does recharge. Unfortunately you and I did not buy the best product available but it is too late to cry over spilled milk, right? I hope you will find a way to get it fixed.I do remember that sometimes at the beginning the unit would not turn on but I think it was because I was pressing the wrong button. Sorry for your troubles.

A hour or two. Very worthwhile. The price is cheap enough to have sufficient power to do the job. Don't plan on a quick recharge. Just have enough for the job. If the job is very long. You can recharge while the other batteries are working.

I love this machine BUT I would not use milk in the hot shot. I believe its too hot and milk might plug up the system if not cleaned out immediately.

I think it depends on what you use it for and how you care for it. I use it for milk only; not heavy cream and I run it under hot water immediately before storing. I make sure not to stress or bend the metal rod. I have had mine for years and use it several times a week continuously for years and it still works great. If you are not going to use it continuously, do not store with batteries inside.

It's not made for that specifically. It has to be plugged in and you have to empty water chamber. Mine broke down after 5 months of using it. I ended up just using it the old fashioned way and heating up my breast milk with hot water. Hope this answers your question.

1.220v is ok, it has transformer suit for100~240v2.no battery supply system3.better than single one, double pump save more time, only need 15~30 mins to gather milk, use single one you will spend more than 15 mins

Depends if you pump exclusively or if you just use it for supplementing your milk supply. If used exclusively, we get about 3-4 days on a set of batteries. If used for supplementing, you'll probably get weeks or months from each set depending on how little you use it.For us, rechargeables made the most sense.

Yes it will work... I tried it. You can make really small amount of milk. What i can't understand us why they have this minimum limit.

I did make almond milk with it. It came out a little thick. It doesn't have a setting to make an unheated milk like you usually would for almond milk. Unless the juice button is it. There are no instructions for it. I just used the soymilk button. I returned mine and got one that is a lot less work and has a mill button for making raw nut milks. The milk turns out way smoother too. I have the soyabella now.

It's 120, so you'd need a converter. It also runs on batteries but I've never tried running one exclusively on batteries. I originally used the battery option as a backup in case there's a power outage, but then realized that it's pretty unusual for a power outage to last more than a short period of time so there's not much point unless you just don't want to plug it in.This is my third littermaid to own. The first two lasted me 11 years in total.

I don't understand the relationship between the Soya Power machine and a glass jug. Could you explain better, please? I had the machine for 2 years, and I have never had a problem: I make the milk in the machine, then pour it into a different container with lid, and store in the fridge...

Less than a minute. And you don't have to put too much pressure on the bag but you do have to press the milk out, it would take forever to just drain.

It is excellent, because it's so easy. You just soak soy beans in water for a few hours, fill water into the soymilk maker until it reaches the mark, put the top on and hit the button. When the machine is done, it will beep a few times. You take the top off, strain the milk with the included strainer and you have soy milk! I've also made soup in mine. There are lots of videos on YouTube with different recipes. I love my machine and use it several times a week.

I'd say closer to 15 minutes and we keep it plugged in 24 hours a day...it's terrible! forget about doing a small house even...this should just be used for touch ups. Wish I had read he reviews first..never would have purchased it. Save your money. Not the best suction either.
