Band 6+: The diagram below shows the process of making soft cheese. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisions where relevant.

The given flow chart illustrates how soft cheese is made.

From an overall perspective, this is a linear process with 5 main steps, each requiring a different temperature and duration, starting with mixing milk and water and ending with the final product.

The process begins with water and milk mixed before cooling in 5 degree celsius for 2 hours. Subsequently, the cooled mixture with additional salt experiences the fermentation process for a constantly six-hour time span with 35 degree celsius involved.

The fourth step involves letting off steam via evaporation using more heat, which is up to 100 degree celsius. After 8 hours, steam is discharged by an outlet, and the mixture becomes thicker. In the second last stage, the compound is conveyed to a specialized machine for being cooled with 5 degree celsius required in 6 hours and through the filter, the excess water is drained out. Finally, there is another filtration step to refine any impurities to produce final soft cheese.
