In this lecture, the production of various dairy products (hard cheese, soft cheese, fresh cheese, fermented milk products, dairy drinks and desserts) will be demonstrated in a small-scale production. The first part of the course covers milk production (milking practices and techniques) including farm visits (milking robot, experimental pen of the BVW GmbH, milking in the milking parlour). Furthermore, milk treatment procedures like pasteurisation, centrifugation, homogenisation and standardisation as well as technological influence parameters during the production of dairy products are discussed. Finally, a product tasting and sensory evaluation will take place.
