Nope. "Cold pasteurization" is just passing a liquid through a microfilter membrane that screens out most yeasts, molds, & bacteria.

Milk has fat globules & proteins in it. They wouldn't make it through the membrane. All you'd get out the other side is dingy water
I remember reading years back that Blue Bottle Coffee moved to cold pasteurization in order to meet food safety laws (they were pissed about it)

I'm not advocating for raw milk but now I'm curious. Would it be viable for (properly-tested) milk?

Just saw a tip to wash your swimwear in microfilter bags to keep microfibers from entering the waterways and honestly I am getting so tired of micro solutions to macro problems

I'm gonna try the big Life Straw dispenser, which removes chemicals & bacteria & parasites (but either doesn't remove viruses or isn't tested how well it does so):

Of all the things to break the evening before a Jobcentre video call, the broadband microfilter must be one of the worst.

the autoclave fairy didn't stop by, so I went with a pressure cooker like a pleb. 2 pounds yellow corn, hydrated for 3 hours with some karo, then jarred and sealed with myco lids, and steamed at 15psi for ~2 hours.

that's how i make corn grain spawn jars for mushroom cultivation!

There's also a misconception about milk shelf time.
Raw milk turn sour almost immediately because bacteria LOVE that sugary environment.
Milk is made to be eaten AS SOON AS IT'S PRODUCED BY THE DIARY COW.

You have to microfilter and keep the milk in a cold environment to keep it from rotting.

* Consider carrying a microfilter and steritabs (or equivalent) so that if that water source you were depending on smells a bit sketchy you aren't choosing between dehydration and dysentery.

Great stuff on all accounts. I gave my 330i a spa day today. Oil service, microfilter, brake fluid, had a puncture repaired and gave a it a good wash. Good to go for a while longer!

Although not a significant point source, I was surprised to hear that only 48% of stations of had a wastewater treatment facility.
Even a basic settling process would be an improvement, microfilter+ ideal (although BNR might not work) but at least keep solids out of effluent.

I haven’t been able to find any device that could be consuming bandwidth on the quiet, as per my ISPs suggestion.

Besides my modem failing, I’m wondering if a faulty microfilter could cause such a pronounced drop in speed?

When they test the connection, are they pinging my modem, or their cabinet?

#ebay; *Why* is it a requirement that return requests (for faulty goods)*must* be accompanied by a picture?

I mean, you can't see from a picture of a microfilter that its internals are bust. The only way to know is try to use it and not be able to make a phone call or connect to the internet […]

Ugh, that sucks.

Here's what it says on the Lifestraw page for the particular dispenser I have. Should be good enough for most situations but not all. (sigh.) (I hate that we have to worry about this stuff.)
