ABSTRACT:
A hydraulic device incorporating open conduit flow used to brine and chill a cheese block, while transporting the cheese block from point of molding to a processing station;
A shallow tank is formed into an open conduit by parallel inner walls spaced far enough apart to allow passage of a cheese block; cold brine of a greater specific gravity than the cheese block is pumped into the tank and is directed through the open conduit in a circumscribed path to a brine outlet;
A cheese block placed in the tank at the brine inlet is carried through the open conduit in the circumscribed path by hydraulic flow; along the conduit fresh chilled brine is inserted and the stage of the conduit is varied to increase brine velocity at points along the conduit.
