The preheated milk is then heated to, preferably, a pasteurization temperature. The heated milk is maintained at the pasteurization temperature for a required pasteurization time and is then passed through the regenerative heat exchanger to preheat the newly collected milk. The pasteurized milk, its temperature lowered by passage through the regenerative heat exchanger, is the preferably cooled before passing into a cooled storage tank.
