Weekly class schedule

  1. Introduction to the subject of Technology for the production of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts - Introductory lecture - introducing the student to the content of the course, the importance in the economy, nutritional and health value of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts, production of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts in Croatia and the EU.
  2. Preparation of milk / cream - Production of quality milk, physicochemical parameters of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts.
  3. Cream production technology - Production technology for various types of sour cream (sour cream, half fat cream, oversized cream, whipping cream, coffee cream, cooking cream). Technological procedures in the production of cream: milk preparation, standardization, heat treatment (pre-heating, pasteurization, sterilization), homogenization, cooling, packaging and storage). Supplements in cream production.
  4. Butter production technology - Production technology for different types of butter (butter made from sweet cream, butter made from sour cream, salted butter, non-standard butter, spreadable fat). Description of butter production in the traditional way, Fritz process, α-continuous process, NIZO process. Technological processes in the production of different types of butter (milk/cream preparation, heat treatment, ripening, butyrification, packaging and storage). Additive in the manufacture of butter (salt, spices, coloring agents, emulsifiers).
  5. Dairy-based desserts production technology - Production technology for different types of dairy-based desserts (pudding, fruit yogurt, mousse). Description of technological processes in the production of different types of dairy-based desserts (milk preparation, standardization, heat treatment, additive addition, refrigeration, packaging and storage). Additives in the production of dairy-based desserts (emulsifiers, stabilizers, sweeteners, flavor enhancers, preservatives, colors, aromas, fruits and fruit pastes, spices).
  6. Calculations in the production of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts - Calculations in the production of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts.
  7. Methods for determining the physicochemical composition of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts - Sampling and preparation of samples for analysis cream (density, acidity, suitability for whipping), butter (acidity, adulteration, the distribution of water in the butter), dairy-based desserts (acidity).
  8. Equipment in the production facility - Equipment for the production of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts, equipment description and requirements for in-plant equipment.
  9. Technological errors in the production of cream, butter and dairy-based desserts - Production errors during the manufacturing process, contamination with various microbial spoilage agents, and errors during product packaging and storage.
  10. Seminars and workshops - Presentation of seminar papers in the context of the teaching material.
