Abstract
A method of centrifuging cheese milk that involves skimming it in a self-emptying centrifuge, returning some of the separated cream to the skim milk to adjust it to the desired level of fat, and centrifuging it again to precipitate microorganisms and dirt particles. The method uses only one centrifuge. The raw milk is preliminarily simmed down to a desired fat content in one section of a separation space, the accordingly standardized milk is forwarded to the periphery of another section of the separation space, where it is purified of microorganisms and dirt while flowing radially inward through the section, and the standardized and purified milk is extracted from the processing space inside the centrifuge by w ay of a peeler.
