About the book
Those who keep sheep and goats often like to process their own milk into yogurt and cheese. This book shows how to create high-quality and delicious products from milk – clearly explained and with a practical focus. Instead of simply offering recipes, it conveys the essential basics from milk processing to the finished product: biological and biochemical processes, hygiene procedures, necessary additives, as well as typical problems and how to fix them.
Author Wolfgang Scholz is a master dairyman and works in production development and applied research in the field of sheep and goat milk at the Federal Dairy Research Institute in Wolfpassing, Austria. He is an instructor in numerous milk processing courses for direct marketers and a member of the DLG (German Agricultural Society) testing commission for sheep and goat milk.
