Cheddar Process Tanks

ÖNSA Machine Manufacturing's Cheddar Process Tanks are designed to carry out the curd cooking, kneading and pasteurisation stages of cheddar cheese production under high hygiene standards and full control. These tanks are ideal for separating whey and kneading the curd to the desired temperature and consistency.

Key Features and Benefits

Multi-Functional Design: Ability to perform curd cooking, resting, kneading and whey drainage processes in a single tank.

Precise Temperature Control: The tank body features a jacketed system to precisely heat or cool the product. This keeps the curd at the desired temperature (e.g. 75-85°C) stable.

Ergonomic Mixing: A powerful mixing mechanism is available to ensure the curd is mixed/kneaded homogeneously after the whey has been separated.

Ease of Cleaning: Cleaning time is minimised thanks to the CIP-compatible design and smooth internal surface polishing.
