Summary

IT HAS BEEN SUSPECTED THAT THE TEMPERATURE OF REFRIGERATED BULK MILK PRIOR TO PROCESSING HAS AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE YIELD AND QUALITY OF CHEDDAR CHEESE DUE TO PHYSICO-CHEMICAL CHANGES IN THE STATE OF VARIOUS MILK COMPONENTS. TRIALS WERE CARRIED OUT AT 276 AND 280 K (3 AND 7 DEG C) FOR 5 DAYS AND IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT STORAGE FOR MORE THAN 3 DAYS AT EITHER TEMPERATURE REDUCED THE YIELD OF CHEDDAR CHEESE. QUALITY WAS IMPAIRED BY STORAGE AT 280 K FOR 3 DAYS OR 276 K FOR 5 DAYS, BUT THERE WAS A DISTINCT COMMERCIAL IMPROVEMENT AT 276 K FOR 3 DAYS. IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT POOR QUALITY WAS DUE TO THE ACTION OF LIPOLYTIC ENZYMES PRODUCED BY PSYCHROTROPHIC BACTERIA.G.R.S.
