The diagram illustrates the process by which milk is transformed into soft cheese.
Overall, the process consists of several stages of mixing, cooling, heating and separation, which are divided into 2 main phases: beginning with milk preparation and fermentation and ending with evaporation and cheese production.
Initially, milk and water are mixed in a mixing machine. Following this, the mixture is cooled to 5 degrees centigrade for 2 hours. Once this step is complete, after adding salt, the mixture undergoes a fermentation process to 37 degrees for 6 hours, making it thicker.
Afterward, the mixture undergoes an evaporation process. The next step involves heating the mixture to 100 degrees over the period of 8 hours. During this stage, the high temperature facilitates the release of steam from the mixture. This is followed by a cooleing stage, which last for another 8 hours to 5 degrees. The sequence concludes when the wastewater is discharged from the container, leaving soft cheese as the final product, marking the end of the process.
