Abstract: The invention concerns fermented dairy products whereof the Dornic acidity ranges from 20 to 80° D, the pH from 4.5 to 5.5, flavored with a warm flavour such as chocolate, caramel, vanilla, coffee, burnt almond, nougat, walnut, hazelnut, almond, peanut, cashew nut. The dairy raw material is treated in order to reduce its mineral salts and/or its protein contents, then subjected to fermentation by a lactic ferment.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is the treatment of a curd (5) obtained from milk (1) which had been subjected to a pretreatment aimed at coagulating the milk casein and precipitating the whey protein through a microfiltration loop (30) comprising at least one cartridge (34) with ceramic tubes (36), so as to separate the cheese from the whey.The device comprises a means for a sequential unclogging under high pressure (39, 43, 44) by reverse permeation for a short period of time without interrupting the continuous microfiltration. Advantages: increased useful life, no clogging, cleaning and sterilization with all the acid and alkaline products used in a dairy plant, insensitiveness to pH, preservation of the quality of the product, low pressure drop across the membrane, high yield.
