Production Process of Greek Yogurt
The extensive Greek Yogurt production cost report consists of the major industrial production process:
- Production via fermentation: The production process of Greek Yogurt occurs via the fermentation process. The process starts with the heating and cooling of milk to make suitable conditions for fermentation. The bacteria cultures are added. Fermentation leads to the growth of bacteria, which converts the lactose into lactic acid. Lactic acid lowers the pH of the milk and facilitates the formation of yogurt. The obtained yogurt is then strained to produce Greek Yogurt by removing whey and lactose.
Greek Yogurt is a thick, creamy yogurt made using cow's milk, which is strained to get rid of whey, resulting in a thicker consistency than regular yogurt. It can be made by taking regular yogurt, plopping it on a fine mesh cloth, and draining the whey from it, producing a thicker and less moist yogurt. Greek Yogurt has a tangy flavour which is a thicker and denser counterpart of normal yogurt. It has a nearly solid consistency. It has a lower sugar content compared to regular yogurt. It is also a great source of protein, iodine, calcium, probiotics, and vitamin B-12.
