ABSTRACT:
Buttermilk curd is continuously manufactured by heating whey in a tank to a temperature below that at which curd will form, preferably 75.degree. C., and pumping the heated whey to a treatment channel through a heating chamber in proximity thereto. The whey is further heated in the heating chamber to a temperature suitable for curd formation, preferably 85.degree. C., and is sprayed in the treatment chamber with a coagulant liquid, the resulting curd being swept along the channel by an endless blade conveyor to an endless band conveyor which conveys the curd to a discharge station. The apparatus disclosed includes two tanks to which whey is alternately supplied and in which the whey is heated to ensure a continuous supply of heated whey to the heating chamber. The whey from the heating chamber enters the treatment channel through a perforated partition in proximity to which are located spray nozzles for the coagulant liquid.
