Cows and milk production of yoghurt from milk Dairy processing Milk processing

Beyond Machinery is at the forefront of dairy innovation, offering comprehensive milk production and processing solutions that cater to the evolving needs of the dairy industry. Our state-of-the-art milk production lines are designed to efficiently transform raw milk into a variety of dairy products, including cow's milk and yoghurt.
Production of Yoghurt from Milk
The process of producing yoghurt from milk involves several key steps that our dairy processing equipment excels at. Starting with the pasteurization of milk, a critical step that ensures the milk is safe for consumption by eliminating harmful bacteria. Our milk pasteurization machines are engineered to maintain the nutritional integrity and flavor profile of the milk during this high-temperature, short-time treatment.
Following pasteurization, the milk undergoes homogenization to ensure a uniform texture and prevent separation of cream. This is where our high-efficiency homogenizers come into play, providing consistent results that are crucial for the quality of the final yoghurt product.
Dairy Processing and Yoghurt Production
Our dairy processing lines are equipped with advanced systems for fermentation, which is the step where yoghurt cultures are introduced to the milk under controlled conditions. These cultures ferment the lactose in the milk, converting it into the tangy and creamy yoghurt we all enjoy. The fermentation process is monitored and controlled by our automated systems to ensure the development of the desired flavor and texture.
The final step in our yoghurt production involves cooling and packaging. Our lines include cooling systems that rapidly reduce the temperature of the yoghurt to the ideal for setting and packaging. The yoghurt is then packaged in various forms to meet market demands, from individual servings to bulk packaging.
