- The purpose of preparation is to ensure the composition and properties of milk necessary for cheese production.
- Preparing milk for coagulation includes the following technological operations: reserving and maturing milk, its normalization, pasteurization of normalized milk, cooling to coagulation temperature, adding bacterial starter, calcium chloride and rennet.
- Devices designed for reserving and maturing milk, its normalization and pasteurization.
- Milk coagulation is the main method of separating milk protein in cheese making; usually casein is released into the curd, the remaining proteins go into whey, which is why they are usually called whey.
- Milk curdling may be rennet And acidic.
- A device in which milk coagulates under the influence of steam.
- The purpose of curd processing is to create conditions for the microbiological and enzymatic processes necessary for cheese production. This is achieved by partial dehydration of the clot.
- The degree of readiness of the clot is determined by its density.

Slide 1
Good afternoon
We present to your attention homemade cheese consisting exclusively of natural products. After all, it’s no secret that homemade products can never compare with store-bought ones. Therefore, we invite you to familiarize yourself with our assortment.
Slide 2
Advantages of homemade cheese over store-bought cheese
The main advantage of homemade cheese is its naturalness, since the composition uses morning milking milk and rennet, without adding preservatives, so the shelf life is short. Of course, such cheese is not suitable for supply to a store; any retail outlet is interested in profit from sales, and they definitely do not need the risks and possible losses from perishable products. Therefore, in the composition of cheese presented on store shelves, we often see various thickeners, flavors, preservatives, stabilizers and other chemicals, without which it is impossible to ensure a long shelf life and a presentable appearance. What are the benefits of such cheese? Homemade cheese contains many vitamins: B1, A, B6, B2, D and especially B12. Rich in proteins and calcium. The price-quality ratio of homemade cheese will pleasantly surprise you.

Mozzarella
Mozzarella is an unsalted soft young cheese, in the form of balls, with an ideal neutral taste and a specific structure, due to which it is slightly stretchy, which is ideal for making pizza. It is also used in the recipes of salads, lasagna, dumplings, pastries and desserts. Mozzarella cheese is great as a stand-alone snack that goes perfectly with white wine, berries and olives. The most popular salad with Mozzarella cheese all over the world is considered to be “Caprese”, in which tomatoes, cheese and basil are alternated in thick plates, and olive oil is used as a dressing. Mozzarella is stored in brine for no longer than the time indicated. If you take the product out of the package, it is best to transfer it to a glass container. In this case, the shelf life of the product is only 2 days. In the refrigerator, Mozzarella cheese should be stored on the warmest shelf; the freezer is not suitable for it.

2. Halloumi
Halloumi is a quick-ripening, semi-hard pickled, delicately spicy cheese with a peculiar sour-milk taste and unusual aroma. It has an elastic structure, so Halloumi is best cut into layers and eaten with bread and vegetables. It has a high melting point and is suitable for frying or grilling. When fried, the cheese does not spread and melts very little, while acquiring an appetizing golden brown crust. Ideal with sweet white wine or cold beer.
Reblochon is a soft cheese with a so-called “washed rind.” The internal consistency of Reblochon is similar to Brie, and the spicy crust adds a very original note to its taste. Reblochon goes perfectly with dry white and red wines and champagne.

4. Ricotta
Riccotta is a dairy product made from whey, which remains in abundance after the preparation of hard cheeses. It has a sweetish taste very similar to cottage cheese, only softer and with the taste of boiled milk. It is used to make tagliatelle (dumplings), added to lasagna, pies, and can be eaten simply as cottage cheese. Ricotta cooks well and forms a wonderful crust. It can be baked with any vegetables and fruits. This product goes well with Provençal herbs and white wine.
Caciotta is a semi-soft cheese with a delicate plastic texture; it melts perfectly and is considered an excellent sandwich cheese. It is served simply fresh, with herbs and olives added.

6. Camembert
Camembert is a soft cheese with superficial white mold. The cheese is creamy, soft, and sometimes even runny. Tender, spicy, sweetish in taste, has the smell of fresh champignons. The main feature of Camembert is its ease of melting. After just a few minutes at room temperature, its center softens and begins to flow. When baked, Camembert quickly melts and softens its taste; it is good for making pies, pizza, hot sandwiches, or simply baking it as a whole piece with herbs or fruit. The creamy-sharp taste of Camembert is emphasized by young red wines.
Slide 7
Brie is a soft cheese made from cow's milk with white mold; it has a delicate creamy taste with a subtle nutty aroma, which fully reveals itself in adulthood, when it acquires additional spicy notes. By the way, the sharpness of the cheese can be judged by the thickness of the heads - the thinner they are, the sharper the taste. It is usually served with white and red wine, and goes well with champagne. As an appetizer, brie pairs best with melon or green apples, but its flavor is also complemented well by nuts, berries, fresh vegetables and meat dishes. Before serving brie to the table, it must be kept for a while at room temperature, only then its aroma will fully develop and allow you to fully enjoy the exquisite meal.
Slide 8
Brynza is a cheese, usually white to slightly yellow in color, the taste and smell are fermented milk, moderately salty. The consistency is moderately dense, often hard, slightly brittle, but not crumbly. Bryndza has no crust, the surface is clean, smooth, with traces of sickle. It has proven itself excellent in light vegetable salads. Compared to other hard cheeses, the composition of feta cheese is much better balanced for the benefit of the human body: it contains less fat and more protein.

Interesting facts about cheese
It is said that Salvador Dali was inspired to create the painting "The Flowing Clock" by Camembert (a soft type of cheese). After eating the cheese, the artist, sitting in front of the unfinished painting, thought about the taste of this cheese. Then the image of “spreading time” came to him. The belief that cheese is the favorite delicacy of mice is a misconception that is imposed on society by various cartoons (for example, “Tom and Jerry”). In fact, rodents do not like foods with strong odors (which cheese is one of), preferring grains and fruits. Queen Victoria of Britain (1837-1901) received a huge disk of Cheddar cheese weighing more than half a ton as a wedding gift. In the UK, a cheese rolling championship is held every year. The production of one kilogram of cheese requires 10 liters of cow or goat milk. In some countries, cheese is made from completely unexpected products, such as sour cream, peas, soy, pork or veal liver, and even iced sugar. According to scientists, the first appearance of cheese dates back to 3000-2800. BC, as it was found in Egyptian pyramids built during this time period. This product is also mentioned in Homer's Odyssey. The ancient Romans and Greeks actively traded cheese.

Nowadays, the problem of nutrition is one of the most important social problems. Human life, health and work are impossible without nutritious food. In organizing proper nutrition, a primary role is given to dairy products. This fully applies to cheese, the nutritional value of which is due to the high concentration of milk proteins and fat in it, the presence of essential amino acids, calcium and phosphorus salts necessary for the normal development of the human body.

Interesting facts about cheese Fact No. 1 Cheese is the enemy of the waistline, 70% of the calories in cheese are saturated milk fat, which clogs the arteries. One kilogram of cheese contains more cholesterol than 1 kg of meat. Fact #2 Cheese is a drug. A 30-gram piece of cheese contains about five grams of casein, which, when broken down during digestion, releases a whole range of opiates called casomorphins. Cheese also contains another drug-like substance similar to amphetamine - phenylethylamine. Fact #3 Cheese contains a lot of salts: it absorbs both the salts contained in cow's milk and the salt added directly during the manufacturing process. For example, 60 grams of cheddar cheese contains 350 ml. salt.

Fact No. 4 Eating cheese causes the development of osteoporosis, because. the salt contained in the product helps flush calcium from the body. Fact No. 5 Cheese normalizes blood pressure. Hypotonic patients need to drink a cup of coffee for breakfast and eat a sandwich with butter and rennet cheese. Fact No. 6 Blue cheese in the amount of 30 - 40 grams. per day is recommended by nutritionists to improve intestinal function, because beneficial bacteria enter the gastrointestinal tract; it also contains phosphorus salts and proteins enriched with amino acids necessary for the body. As well as special substances that protect human skin from the negative effects of sunlight.

Slide description:
Fact #7 Cheese is the enemy. The cheese product does not have any beneficial properties, because it only superficially resembles cheese, but in reality it is something else. It contains no more than 20% real milk, and the rest is fat and protein of non-dairy origin. Manufacturers use cheap oils: coconut, palm, rapeseed. These oils are converted into transozimeric and transgenic fats and subsequently cause cardiovascular diseases, cholecystitis, obesity, and atherosclerosis. Fact No. 8 Vitamin A contained in cheeses restores vision, skin, mucous membranes, and normalizes growth processes. Fact No. 9 Vitamin B2 produces energy in the body and normalizes tissue respiration. Fact No. 10 Vitamin B12 is involved in metabolism and eliminates anemia.

Organoleptic evaluation is usually necessary to determine the quality of cheese or the characteristics of cheeses when developing a new product, or to study consumer attitudes towards cheese. It is important to select an appropriate sensory evaluation technique and strictly control the test conditions to ensure the reliability of the results. Sensory analysis can be used to identify undesirable characteristics or defects of a cheese, to identify differences in the sensory characteristics of two or more cheeses, to evaluate differences between specific sensory characteristics of different cheeses, or to determine consumer preferences. Organoleptic quality indicators include shape, size, weight, appearance, taste, smell, consistency, pattern, dough color, packaging and labeling.

Cheese is a food product produced from milk by coagulating proteins, processing the resulting protein clot and subsequent ripening of the cheese mass. During ripening, all components of the cheese mass undergo profound changes, as a result of which flavoring and aromatic substances accumulate in it, and the consistency and pattern characteristic of this type of cheese are acquired.
Slide 3
MAIN STAGES OF CHEESE PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY
In general, the process of producing rennet cheeses can be represented by the following scheme: preparing milk for processing; milk curdling; curd and curd processing; molding and pressing cheese; salting cheese; cheese ripening; preparing cheese for sale (packaging, labeling, packaging and transportation); storage.
Slide 4
Preparing milk
The purpose of preparation is to ensure the composition and properties of milk necessary for cheese production. Preparing milk for coagulation includes the following technological operations: reserving and maturing milk, its normalization, pasteurization of normalized milk, cooling to coagulation temperature, adding bacterial starter, calcium chloride and rennet.
Slide 5
Reserving milk. In factories, there is a need to accumulate milk to ensure smooth operation of the enterprise. In this regard, when storing milk, measures must be taken to prevent: the proliferation of harmful microflora to a dangerous level; changes in the composition and properties of milk that are undesirable for the quality and yield of cheese.
Slide 6
To ensure the above conditions, milk is purified using centrifugal milk purifiers to remove mechanical impurities that have a protective effect on microorganisms. After purification, the milk is cooled to a temperature of 2 to 8 °C and stored at this temperature. Storing milk at low temperatures is accompanied by some deterioration in the physicochemical properties of milk; part of the colloidal calcium phosphate and citrates comes out of the casein micelles, which weakens the intermicellar bonds. This leads to an increase in the resistance of the micelle to rennet coagulation, which is expressed in its slowdown and the formation of a flabby clot, low syneresis, and increased loss of fat and protein.
Slide 7
Milk ripening. In the case where milk is supplied to enterprises immediately after it is received on farms, it must be subjected to ripening. Freshly milked fresh milk has bactericidal properties and is not suitable for cheese making, as it is an unfavorable environment for the development of microorganisms, is poorly coagulated by rennet, and forms a flabby clot that does not separate whey well. The purpose of milk maturation is to improve it as a medium for the development of starter microflora and milk-clotting enzymes. Microflora plays a leading role in the maturation of milk, which distinguishes maturation from reserve. As a result of the development of microflora, the acidity of milk increases by 1-2 °T. The ripening of milk has a positive effect on its cheese-suitability; the coagulability of milk with rennet is significantly improved, which ensures the production of a curd of the required strength and simplifies its processing.
Slide 8
Normalization of milk. To obtain a standard product, the raw materials are normalized. In cheese making, it is customary to normalize the fat content in a product in relation not to the total mass of the cheese, but in relation to the mass of its dry matter (mass fraction of fat in the dry matter of the cheese). The fat content in the dry matter of cheese depends on the ratio between fat and protein, the degree of their use, the ratio between different fractions of milk proteins, the degree of salting of the cheese and the breakdown of protein substances during the ripening process.
Slide 9
Pasteurization of milk. The main goal of pasteurization is to reduce the content of pathogenic and technically harmful microorganisms in milk to a level at which they cannot cause damage to the quality of the finished product during the subsequent normal course of the technological process. It should be taken into account that the condition limiting the parameters of pasteurization is the maximum preservation of the composition and physicochemical properties of milk, which influence the yield and quality of cheese
Slide 10
Milk curdling
Milk coagulation is the main method of separating milk protein in cheese making; usually casein is released into the curd, the remaining proteins go into whey, which is why they are usually called whey. Milk coagulation can be: Rennet Acid Rennet coagulation occurs from the action of rennet on milk. Rennet is added to the cheese bath with milk cooled after pasteurization to 35 ° C, to which calcium chloride and the starter culture necessary for this type of cheese have been previously added.
Slide 11
The coagulation rate is affected by: coagulation temperature; pH of the environment; concentration of calcium salts; dose of enzyme, etc. The optimum action of rennet is 43-45 °C, pepsin - 40-41 °C. At temperatures below 10 °C, coagulation proceeds very slowly and may not even occur. In cheese making, the coagulation temperature of rennet is 28-35 °C, which is explained by the need to create favorable conditions not only for the enzyme, but also for the lactic acid microflora of the starter. With normal acidity (20 °T) and fat content of the mixture, the coagulation temperature is 32-35 °C, with high acidity (22 °T, which is typical in the production of soft cheeses) - 28-32 °C. As the acidity of the mixture increases, the coagulation temperature should be reduced by 0.5-1.5 °C for each degree of acidity. Increasing the dose of calcium chloride from 10 to 50 g per 100 kg of normalized mixture increases enzyme activity by 20-60%. The rate of casein coagulation depends on the amount of rennet added. It has been established that the duration of clot formation depends inversely on the dose of the enzyme.
Slide 12
Processing of rennet curd
The purpose of curd processing is to create conditions for the microbiological and enzymatic processes necessary for cheese production. This is achieved by partial dehydration of the clot. A certain amount of whey with milk sugar and salts dissolved in it should remain in the resulting cheese mass. In the finished curd, lactic acid fermentation continues and the lactic acid bacteria introduced into the milk continue to multiply. As compaction occurs, the structural elements of the clot come closer together, as a result of which the capillary spaces decrease and the serum contained in them is released. The degree and rate of whey release during curd processing depend on the composition of the milk, its acidity, pre-treatment modes and other factors, of which the acidity of the milk is decisive. When processing cheese grains, additional technological operations are allowed - diluting the whey with water and partially salting the cheese in the grains. Cutting the curd and placing the cheese grain. The operation is performed with mechanical knives-mixers. In this case, it is necessary to ensure that the cheese grain of the required size is obtained with the maximum possible homogeneity in this indicator. Processing of low-density clots is carried out carefully, in slow motion. The formation of an excessively dense or rapidly compacting clot is carried out, if possible, as quickly as possible, but without sudden movements that contribute to the formation of cheese dust.
Slide 13
Molding and pressing of cheese mass
Molding of the cheese mass is a set of technological operations aimed at separating the cheese grain from the whey located between the grains, and forming from it a monolith (layer), and then individual cheese heads or blocks with the required shape, size and weight. Three main methods of molding are used: from a layer, in bulk, in bulk. Cheese pressing is carried out to compact the cheese mass, remove residual free (intergrain) whey and form a closed and durable surface layer. Pressing is carried out under the influence of its own weight (self-pressing) and external pressure. During the molding and pressing of the cheese mass, microbiological processes continue, the volume of microflora increases, therefore, the active acidity of the cheese mass increases and its further dehydration occurs. At the same time, the temperature of the cheese is maintained within 18-20 °C. Low temperatures slow down the process of lactic acid fermentation and whey release, which can negatively affect the quality of the finished product. During the self-pressing process, it is necessary to periodically turn the cheese wheels to ensure uniform dehydration and compaction.
Slide 14
Salting cheeses
The cheese is salted to give it the appropriate taste. Salting also affects the structure, consistency and quality of the product. At the same time, salt regulates microbiological and biochemical processes in cheese, influencing the formation of its organoleptic characteristics. Excessive salting sharply slows down the process of cheese ripening; the cheese mass is first moistened from the surface, and then becomes dry and brittle. In case of insufficient salting, you can get fermented cheese. Usually molded heads of cheese are salted using several salting methods: ground salt, salt grounds, in brine, combined methods. The main method for hard rennet cheeses is salting in a circulating solution (brine). Brine concentration is 18-20%. The duration of salting for cheeses of this group is sometimes several days. When producing Swiss and Soviet cheeses, three to five times salting is allowed - “rubbing” the rind of the cheeses during the ripening process. The duration of salting depends on the moisture content in the cheese mass and the presence or absence of preliminary salting of the cheese in the grain.
Slide 15
Maturing of cheeses
Cheese after pressing and salting is a rubbery mass without taste or distinct pattern. It acquires the chemical composition and organoleptic characteristics characteristic of this cheese only as a result of profound biochemical and physical changes in its components during the ripening process. Cheese ripening occurs through the combined action of rennet and enzymes of lactic acid bacteria, which not only ferment milk sugar, but also participate in the deep transformation of milk proteins due to their enzyme systems. It is generally accepted that cheese ripening begins from the moment of salting. When caring for cheeses with a high temperature of the second heating, they are periodically washed, the rind is salted (salt grounds) in order to maintain it in a moist state, preventing the formation of a thick rind and the development of mold and mucus on it. These cheeses are usually coated with paraffin or polymer alloys or films only after the fermentation chamber. To ensure uniform rind formation, cheeses from this group are turned over in the fermentation chamber approximately every 5 days, in a cold chamber - every 10. The frequency of turning also depends on the condition of the cheese dough and the humidity of the room.
Slide 16
The cheeses on the shelves are placed evenly, at a distance sufficient for their normal airflow.
Slide 17
Filling, labeling, packaging and transportation
Packing. For the convenience of the consumer, enterprises pack mature cheeses in small portions into hermetically sealed bags made of polymer materials, in which they are sold. Marking consists of applying the production date (day, month), production mark, brewing number, and information to each head of cheese. For some types of cheeses, the name of the cheese is additionally applied in accordance with regulatory documentation. The production mark must consist of the following designations: mass fraction of fat in the dry matter of the cheese (in%); number (name) of the manufacturer; abbreviated name of the region (region, republic) in which the enterprise is located. The shape, size, quantity and order of location of production marks on cheese must comply with the approved regulatory documentation for a specific type of cheese. When packaging cheese in film, it is allowed to place the production mark on the film, or a colorful label is applied to the film indicating the name, cheese content in dry matter and the trademark (for enterprises that have it).
Slide 18
Package. The cheese is shipped from the manufacturer (or from the enterprise where the cheese was ripened) in packaged form. Mature cheeses must be packed in wooden boxes (according to GOST 13361) or wooden drums (according to GOST 9525), unless otherwise provided by regulatory documentation for a specific type of cheese. For the sale of cheese within the region, territory or republic of the Russian Federation in which they were produced, and for transportation from other cities, it is allowed to pack cheeses in cardboard boxes that meet the requirements of regulatory documentation. When transporting cheeses from factories to wholesale warehouses, the use of reusable containers or special containers is allowed. The cheeses selected for packaging are weighed, and the container weight, net weight, gross weight and quantity of cheeses are recorded in the accompanying documentation. At the same time, these data are indicated in the book of plumb lines. Before packing the cheese into a wooden container, it is wrapped in wrapping paper, parchment or sub-parchment. Cheeses of the same name, variety, production date and brewing number are placed in each box or drum. It is allowed to pack cheeses of different production dates in one box marked “assembled”. Containers for packaging cheeses must be clean and free of foreign odors that affect the quality of the product. Wood moisture content should be no more than 20%; mold on boards and slats is not allowed. Foreign wormholes and resin pockets are allowed only on the outside of the container. Transportation of cheeses must be carried out by all types of transport in covered vehicles in accordance with the rules for the transportation of perishable goods in force for the relevant type of transport, and in packaged form - in accordance with GOST 21929 and GOST 24579 (with securing cargo packages in accordance with GOST 21650).
Slide 19
Cheese storage
Cheese is stored under the following conditions: temperature 4-0 °C and relative humidity 85-90% or 0-8 °C and 80-85%. Cheeses are stored on racks or packed in containers stacked on slats or pallets. A passage 0.8-1.0 m wide is left between the folded stacks, and the ends of the containers with markings on them should be facing the passage. Cheeses packed in containers are stored for no more than 10-15 days. Storing cheese together with fish, smoked meats, fruits, vegetables and other food products with a specific odor in the same chamber is not allowed. The quality of the cheese is checked at least once every 30 days. Based on the results of these checks, a decision is made on the possibility of further storing the cheese without reducing its score.

Cheese is a food product obtained fromraw milk using
milk-clotting enzymes and
lactic acid bacteria or by melting
various dairy products and raw materials
non-dairy origin using
melting salts.
Nutritional and biological value of cheese
due to the content of a large amount
easily digestible proteins, milk fat,
various minerals, organic
acids and vitamins.
The cheese is rich in calcium and phosphorus salts (100 g of cheese
satisfy a person's daily needs
in calcium).

Australian cheeses
Cheese production is conventionally divided into 2 stages:Stage 1 – the entire process of processing milk and curd (up to
molding and salting);
Stage 2 – cheese ripening.
The rennet coagulation process is conventionally divided into
4 stages:
Induction period including
enzymatic stage and latent stage
coagulation;
Mass coagulation stage;
Stage of structure formation and strengthening of the clot
Syneresis stage.

Milk container
Before rolling into cheesenormalized for fat and protein
pasteurized and cooled to
milk is added at a certain temperature
cheese starter, calcium chloride,
biological and chemical components,
used in cheese making.
Coagulation of the normalized mixture into a clot
occurs under the influence of milk-clotting enzymes and lactic acid.
The activity of the enzyme depends on the pH of the milk,
the presence of soluble calcium salts in milk,
coagulation temperature, etc.
In the technochemical laboratory
Under the influence of rennet occursaggregation of paracasein particles and formation
clot.
The coagulation of milk by rennet occurs in
for 20 minutes. at a temperature of 30-32 °C.
Processing the cheese curd
When the curd is processed, whey is released from
clot to a certain level in two stages.
The first stage is the production of cheese grains, in which
serum is released after the clot is cut and
the process of its processing to obtain protein-fat
particles (cheese grains) of a certain size.
The second stage (processing of cheese grains) consists of
additional serum release. Selection
serum at this stage occurs with constant
kneading cheese grains in cheese-making baths at
a certain temperature.
Kneading the clot
In the production of rennet solidscheeses are used after kneading
second heating to enhance
separating whey from cheese grains and
regulation of microbiological
processes.
Apply low temperature second
heating (38-42 °C) or high (48-56
°C). At high temperatures of the second
heating creates preferential
conditions for the development of thermophiles
lactic acid bacteria.
Cheese bath
Shaping, self-pressing and pressing cheese
Molding is carried out for the purpose of joiningcheese grains into a certain monolith
forms, removing excess whey;
Cheeses are produced in various forms:
spherical, rectangular bars, low
and tall cylinders, truncated cones, etc.
After molding, the cheeses are exposed to
of their own weight are self-pressed (soft
cheeses, some semi-hard and pickled)
or pressed into molds under pressure
external loads (hard cheeses).
Cheese pressing
Salting cheese. Salting of cheese is carried out bykeeping heads of cheese (cheese grains) in
solution of table salt, applying salt grounds
or dry salt on the surface of the cheese or adding to
cheese grain.
Salting cheese provides additional
serum secretion, affects activity
water and through it influences the development
microorganisms and enzyme activity during
ripening, forms the characteristic taste of cheese,
influences consistency and promotes formation
cheese rinds.
Mass fraction of table salt in mature cheeses
fluctuates 1.2-7.0% depending on the type of cheese.
Proper conduct of the settlement ensures
the required composition of the finished product and
determines the course of maturation.
Salting cheese
Cheese ripening
After salting and drying, the cheeses are placed in specialmaturation rooms.
In these rooms the cheeses are aged at
appropriate temperature and humidity conditions in
for a certain period of time depending on the type
cheese.
Cheeses are ripened on racks at a temperature of 12-16 ° C and
relative air humidity 80-85%.
The duration of ripening varies from several
days (for soft cheeses) up to 2-6 months. (for hard cheeses).
During ripening in the cheese mass the greatest
proteins, milk sugar,
citric acid, partly milk fat.
The continuous ripening process of cheese, in which
there is a reaction that splits the main
components can be roughly divided into two stages:
lactic acid fermentation and enzymatic process.
Cheese ripening
At the first stage, they actively develop within 7-10 days.lactic acid-forming and
flavor-producing bacteria, while milk sugar
almost completely fermented to form
lactic acid.
Endoenzymes (intracellular enzymes), possessing
high proteolytic activity, cause
deep breakdown of proteins (paracasein) to peptones,
peptides, amino acids and even ammonia.
Along with the breakdown of proteins into simpler compounds
free volatile and non-volatile fatty substances are formed
acids, acetic and propionic acids, alcohols,
ethers, aldehydes, diacetyl, acetoin, etc., which
form characteristics characteristic of this type of cheese
organoleptic indicators.
When cheeses ripen, gaseous substances are formed
(carbon dioxide, ammonia, sometimes hydrogen sulfide).
Amount and intensity of carbon dioxide release
are responsible for creating the cheese pattern.
Before packaging

A feature of Cheddar cheese technology: the processed cheese mass is sent to
molding machine, where the cheese layer
pressed, cut into blocks and sent to
cheddarization.
Cheddarization of the cheese mass occurs at
special trolleys at a temperature of 30-32 °C in
for 1.5-2 hours.
Cheddarization is the process of changing the cheese
mass under the influence of lactic acid up to
its achievement of a fibrous-layered structure in
as a result of enhanced lactic acid process.

by technology
Swiss cheese;
They ripen for a long time (180-350
days);
These cheeses have a dense
consistency, well preserved
elevated temperatures;
It is recommended to eat them in
grated form.
Semi-hard rennet cheeses
This group includes fatty cheeses (Latvian, Piquant,Nyamu-us, Novoukrainsky, etc.), as well as cheeses with
low fat content (Kaunas, Klaipeda,
Payuris and others).
The peculiarity of the production of these cheeses is that
that they are produced using hard cheese technology, but
do not use forced pressing
(self-pressing).
Ripened like soft cheeses with the help of enzymes
lactic acid bacteria and microflora enzymes
cheese slime.
Semi-hard cheeses are combined into a separate group and
characteristic spicy, slightly ammoniacal (piquant)
taste and smell.
Mature cheeses are packed in capped foil,
subparchment and other coverings.
Soft rennet cheeses
Soft cheeses as opposed to other rennet cheesescontain a large amount of soluble protein (up to
85%) and vitamins, which gives them even higher
nutritional value.
Soft cheeses have a wide range of flavors
- from pleasant lactic acid to pronounced cheesy
with a slightly ammonia or mushroom flavor
(Dorogobuzhsky, White dessert) or hot pepper
(Roquefort).
All soft cheeses are produced only from
pasteurized milk using pure cultures
bacterial starter cultures, microflora of cheese mucus and
mold.
Technological process for the production of soft cheeses
designed in such a way as to obtain tender cheeses,
soft consistency and specific taste.
Technology Features:
use of mature milk with an acidity of 25 °T,longer milk coagulation than with
production of hard cheeses;
placing large grains of cheese (sometimes the curd is not
crush);
absence of second heating and forced
pressing.
Soft cheeses do not have a rind and the heads of the cheese are not marked.
Cheeses have a high moisture content (50-65%) and salt
(2,5-5%).
Soft cheeses, depending on the method of obtaining the curd,
divided into rennet, rennet-acid and
acidic.
Quality of soft cheeses and their organoleptic characteristics
formed during ripening under the action of enzymes
bacterial cultures.
Based on general organoleptic characteristics and technology, soft cheeses are divided into five species subgroups:
Cheeses ripened with the participation of lactic acid bacteriaand microflora of cheese mucus, which have acute,
piquant, slightly ammonia-like taste and smell;
Cheeses ripened with the participation of lactic acid bacteria
as well as microflora of cheese mucus and white mold,
developing on the surface of the cheese.
Cheeses ripened with the participation of lactic acid bacteria
and white mold developing on the surface of the cheese.
Cheeses ripened with the participation of lactic acid bacteria
and greenish-blue mold developing in the dough
cheeses with a sharp, peppery taste and smell
(Roquefort, Armenian Roquefort, etc.).
Fresh cheeses produced with the participation of
lactic acid bacteria without maturation, having pure
fermented milk taste and smell, with a taste of fillers
(Amateur fresh, Naroch, Gelendzhik, Blade,
Adygei, Homemade, Creamy, etc.).
Camembert cheese
Roquefort cheese
Currently it is obtained from cow's milk when ripeinvolving lactic acid bacteria and greenish-blue mold
Penic. rogueforti developing inside the cheese dough.
Roquefort cheese has a mass fraction of fat in dry matter of 50%, moisture
- no more than 46%, salt - no more than 5%; duration
maturation 2 months
Mold spores are introduced into the milk at the same time as the starter. In 3-5
days After salting, the cheese heads are pierced with needles for quick
and uniform development of mold introduced into the cheese.
Cheeses are ripened in a chamber with a high RHV - 92-95% at 6-8 °C. IN
the cheese ripening room is provided with constant
influx of fresh cold air for better mold growth.
Penic mold. rogueforti, in addition to protein breakdown, secretes lipase,
under the influence of which decomposition products accumulate in cheese
milk fat. The resulting free volatile fatty
acids react with ammonia and form
pepper-flavored substance.
Roquefort cheese has a sharp, salty, peppery taste and a specific
aroma. The consistency is delicate, oily, homogeneous, slightly
tiny. A small density of dough in the outer is allowed
layer. At a distance of 1.5-3.0 cm from the side surface throughout
blue-green mold should be distributed throughout the cheese mass
colors. The cheese is cylindrical in shape, weighing 2.0-3.5 kg.
Roquefort cheese
Adyghe cheese
It is the national dairy product of the Adyghe people.It is produced in two types: fresh and smoked.
Adyghe cheese has a mass fraction of fat of 45%, moisture -
no more than 60%, salt - no more than 2.0%.
The cheese is sold at three days of age.
The cheese is shaped like a low cylinder weighing 1.0-1.5 kg.
If the cheese is produced using traditional technology, then
its surface is wrinkled, with traces of twigs, so
how self-pressing occurs in wicker wicker
baskets.
The surface of the cheese can be smooth. Crust without thick
subcortical layer, with the presence of yellow spots on
surface of the cheese.
The taste and smell are clean, spicy, slightly sour, with
pronounced taste and smell of pasteurization.
The consistency is moderately dense and delicate.
Adyghe cheese
Pickled cheeses (brynza, table cheese, Chanakh, Suluguni, Georgian, Ossetian, Tushinsky, Lori)
Brine cheeses are combined into one group according toorganoleptic characteristics, technology and chemical
composition.
Brine cheeses are produced both from pasteurized,
and from raw milk with the addition of bacterial
sourdough
A characteristic feature of brine cheeses is
high content of table salt (4-7%),
increased amount of moisture (47-53%).
Cheese mass for the production of brine cheeses
self-presses and slightly presses, ripening
and storage takes place in 18-20% brine
concentration.
Brine cheeses do not have a rind and have a sharp
salty taste and sour milk taste.
Cheeses, except feta cheese, have eyes of various shapes.
The consistency is homogeneous, dense, slightly brittle (at
Suluguni - layered).
Fermented milk cheeses
In the production of fermented milk cheeses, milkcoagulates with lactic acid.
The resulting cheese mass has a high
acidity, and is involved in the ripening of cheeses
almost just lactic acid.
Mainly produced fresh
fermented milk cheeses such as cottage cheese and products,
prepared from it.
Fermented milk cheeses, like rennet cheeses, can be
divided into hard and soft.
From hard fermented milk cheeses essentially
Only one cheese is produced - Green.
Maturation of cheese mass in hard cheeses
occurs under anaerobic conditions.
Processed cheeses
Depending on the type of main raw material,technology and chemical composition,
organoleptic characteristics of processed cheeses
are divided into species groups:
processed slice cheeses;
processed sausage cheeses;
processed cheeses
pasty;
sweet processed cheeses;
canned processed cheeses;
processed cheeses for lunch.
The raw materials for the production of processed cheese are:
natural mature cheeses;low-fat semi-finished cheese;
quick-ripening cheese intended for
melting;
fat and low-fat cottage cheese;
feta cheese and other pickled cheeses;
dry and condensed milk;
butter and plastic cream;
buttermilk and whey.
In addition, various spices and spices, paste are used
krill "Ocean" and other food fillers and
aromatic additives.
Melting salts are used to melt the mixture.
Features of the technology
Preparation of raw materials (from paraffin cheesesparaffin is removed, rindless cheeses are cleaned
and wash);

Cheese quality control
From each controlled unit of cheese packagingsamples are taken with a cheese probe to determine
organoleptic and physicochemical indicators.
Samples for physical and chemical analyzes are ground and
an average sample weighing about 50 g is isolated.
Hard rennet cheeses are valued at
organoleptic indicators on a 100-point scale
system.
Depending on the amount of points scored, the
type of cheese.
Hard rennet cheeses are not divided into varieties
Russian, Poshekhonsky, Piquant, reduced cheeses
fat content and accelerated ripening (1 month), as well as
soft, melted.
Their quality is determined by the compliance of indicators,
given in the standard or technical specifications. The 100-point score includes the following indicators:
taste and smell - 45 points,
consistency - 25,
drawing - 10,
dough color - 5,
appearance - 10,
packaging and labeling - 5 points.
Cheeses that have a common
score less than 75 points, including
taste and smell less than 34 points, with pronounced
fodder, sour, musty, bitter, rancid,
putrid, with foreign tastes and odors
petroleum products.
If the quality of the cheese does not meet the requirements
current normative and technical documentation when re-testing cheese
sent for industrial processing.
Marking
For cheeses of different fat content, differentshapes and sizes of the brand, their quantity and order
locations:
cheeses of 50% fat content of the Swiss group,
Dutch, Cheddar and Russian - in the shape of a square
with sides 60 or 23 mm depending on weight
cheese;
cheeses 55% fat - in the shape of a circle with a diameter of 50
or 30 mm;
cheeses with 45% fat content - in regular form
octagon;
cheeses 40% fat (for melting) - in the form
equilateral triangle with side 40 mm;
cheeses with 30% fat content have a production grade of
shape of a regular hexagon;
cheeses 20% fat - in isosceles shape
trapezoids.

Soft and pickled cheeses are not labeled.
The production date is indicated on the cards. When assessing the appearance of cheese, pay attention to
the shape of the cheese, the condition of its surface, coating and
crusts.
By the shape of the cheese you can determine what type it is.
refers to cheese, indirectly determine its quality.
When examining the appearance of the cheese, its color and
drawing of cheese dough.
The sample of cheese taken with a probe is cut lengthwise and
inspected for color. At the same time, pay attention to
uniformity and uniformity of color throughout the mass
cheese.
The pattern of the cheese is assessed based on the selected cylinder
cheese, paying attention to the shape, quantity,
the size and location of the eyes on a section of cheese. At
a strongly spongy or ragged pattern in the cheese
implementation is not allowed. The consistency of the cheese is assessed by
the totality of its properties: degree of density,
hardness, uniformity and feel,
arising from the excitation of mechanical and
tactile receptors in the oral cavity.
An elongated column of cheese, when slightly bent, does not
should break or crumble.
The density and hardness of the cheese dough is determined by
grating a piece of cheese or
instrumental method.
Cheeses with coarse,
hard, rubbery, prickly consistency. Taste, smell and aroma are the main
indicator by which to determine
quality and compliance of the cheese with this
mind.
To determine the taste of cheese, take dough
central part.
The aroma of the cheese is assessed immediately after
using a probe to extract a column of cheese from
heads.
High quality cheese should not
have off-flavors and
smells. The quality of processed cheeses is assessed using a 30-point system:
Taste and smell - 15 points
Consistency - 9 points
Dough color - 2 points
Appearance - 2 points
Packaging and labeling - 2 points
Sum of organoleptic scores
indicators must be at least 19 points,
including taste and smell - 10,
consistency - 6, color - 1, appearance
- 1 and packaging and markings - 1.
Processed cheeses that received a score
less than 19 points are not allowed for sale,
and are recyclable.
