2006
Sithole, Rhoda | McDaniel, Mina Rae | Meunier-Goddik, Lisbeth
Cheddar whey powder from one plant was evaluated for variations in quality parameters over 12 months. Representative samples were analyzed monthly for microbiological, physicochemical and sensory properties. The seasonal variability in the physicochemical properties was minor. Fall samples were higher in Hunter Lab parameter L* (lightness) and pH but lower in solubility index. Summer samples were high in solubility index and titratable acidity but low in L*. May production was significantly higher in standard plate count (SPC) and free moisture than the rest of the year. February production was significantly lower in SPC and free moisture content. There were no significant differences in aroma and flavor across the seasons. The flavor was generally bland, with the most intense attribute rating 5 on the 15-point intensity scale. The order of intensity of the most intense attributes was cooked flavor and aroma > sweetness > caramelized flavor and aroma.
