FEATURES DETAILS
Optimized hygienic design
Our tank design, with rounded corners and mirror-polished surfaces, ensures perfect cleaning and eliminates areas of retention. The choice between a conical bottom (for complete drainage) or a flat bottom (for better heat distribution) allows the equipment to be adapted to each type of cheese.
Heating system and precise control
The heating jacket with water or steam circulation ensures uniform heat distribution across the entire surface of the tank. Advanced PID control maintains an accuracy of ±0.5°C, essential for perfect and reproducible coagulation.
Agitators and cutting system
Variable-speed agitators ensure gentle stirring during coagulation and efficient mixing of ingredients. The integrated cutting system, with adjustable stainless steel blades, guarantees a uniform curd size for optimized yields.
Areas of application
Our coagulation tanks are suitable for various applications in the cheese industry:
- Soft cheeses - Camembert, Brie, Fresh goat cheese
- Pressed cheeses - Comté, Emmental, Gruyère
- Stretched-curd cheeses - Mozzarella, Provolone
- Fresh cheeses - Faisselle, Fromage blanc, Ricotta
- Specialty cheeses - Blue cheeses, washed rind cheeses
Advantages of the system
Optimized yield
Advanced design and precise control of coagulation parameters maximize dry matter extraction and minimize losses, significantly improving the profitability of your production.
Production flexibility
With capacities from 200 to 10,000 litres and various configurations, our tanks are perfectly suited to the needs of both artisanal and industrial cheese dairies.
Consistent quality
The perfect reproducibility of the coagulation cycles guarantees a consistent curd quality, batch after batch, essential for building and maintaining the reputation of your cheeses.
