| Abstract: | A study has been carried out on the efficiency of the cheesemaking process when Cheddar cheese was made from milk showing the normal seasonal trends in composition and from milk that had been standardized to a crude protein: fat ratio of 0.9. Standardization resulted in a small loss of yield from a standard volume of milk (averaged over a complete year), but this loss was compensated by an almost equal gain in the efficiency of fat retention. |
