Abstract:The acceleration of cheese ripening is of major interest in the cheese industry because it is related to both product characteristics and production costs. In this study, different temperature-time combinations using elevated temperatures of 20°C within the first month of maturation were applied during Reggianito cheese ripening. Data obtained from proteolysis, lipolysis, analysis of volatile compounds and sensory analysis were considered to establish optimal ripening conditions. Principal component analysis s… Show more
“…Sihufe et al [17] carried out a study to assess the impact of an increased storage temperature of 18 °C and suggested an optimal ripening period between 2 and 3 months. Later, another study also showed encouraging results when elevated temperatures of 20 °C were applied during the first month of the ripening period, showing an important reduction in storage time of 2 months [18] with a milder development of the final sensory characteristics [19].…”
