Abstract
ABSTRACTCheeses with whey pH at draw of 6.15 or 6.40 were stored at 4°for 50 days. Compression test at 10°(Instron) showed a decrease in compressive stress with storage. Failure points were near a true strain value of 0.5 for the cheeses at day 3. The failure region became less obvious by day 50. The hypothetical equilibrium stress (HES) in the stress‐relaxation test was higher with a draw pH of 6.40 than 6.15, possibly indicating that higher calcium led to a stronger network structure. The HES decreased with storage, suggesting cleavage of structural crosslinks caused by the coagulant.
