What is a Curd Filtering Mat?
A curd filtering mat is a type of equipment used in the production of cheese. It is a device that is used to separate the curds (the solid part of milk) from the whey (the liquid part of milk) during the cheesemaking process.
The curd filtering mat is typically made of a mesh or perforated material, such as plastic or stainless steel. The curds and whey are placed on top of the mat, and the mat is then pressed or squeezed, causing the curds to be separated from the whey as they pass through the mesh or perforations. The curds are collected on top of the mat, while the whey is collected on the bottom.
Curd filtering mats are commonly used in the production of soft and semi-soft cheeses, such as feta, ricotta, and brie, and can be used in combination with other equipment such as curd drums sifters, to achieve different curd sizes and textures.
This equipment is typically made of materials that are durable, easy to clean, and able to withstand the temperature and pressure requirements of cheese production. It is also a useful tool for achieving consistent curd size and texture, which helps to ensure consistent quality of the cheese.
