Tetra Pak® Cheese Vat OST CH5 Horizontal vat for curd making Working principle • Even curd size distribution The milk (and in line added starter) is fed into the vat through the bottom (or optional top) inlet and gently stirred by the combined stirring and cutting tools. After rennet addition the milk rests to create a firm coagulum to be cut by the sharp knives of the cutting tool. The speed of the tools is controlled between 2 and 10 rpm. Once the curd is cut to the required grain size the rotation of the tools is reversed. By rotating the opposite way, the blunt sides of the knives stir the curd and whey mixture to avoid sedimentation. • Low fat and fines losses • Very strong and reliable • High standard of hygiene Application The Tetra Pak ® Cheese Vat OST CH5 is a horizontal vat for curd production of cheddar/mozzarella cheese types. It has all required functions for a controlled and predictable process, including filling of cheese milk, mixing of ingredients, coagulation of milk, cutting of coagulum, blending, indirect heating, emptying and CIP (Cleaning in Place). For possible temperature correction the curd/whey mixture can be indirectly heated by adding steam to the vat jacket. The vat is emptied through the bottom valve. The curd making process is controlled from the control panel placed adjacent to the manway on top of the vat. The vat can be cleaned in place by rotating spray nozzles and a connection to the shaft seal h
