I am not sure what amount of cooling you need, are you trying to cool
the milk tank or the whole barn?
An automotive compressor and condensor will give you about 5 tons of
cooling.  Trane, Carrier or York Absorption chillers start at about 100
tons.  That smallest size would probably be the least economical.
Yazaki advertised a hot water absorption chiller, not sure what size
range they have.  There may be others.

Two parts really - the milk tank primarily to hold milk for 48 hours and
then a "cool room" to store the cheese as it matures. 4degC or
thereabouts?
