The flow chart presents the steps of producing cheese. Overall, there are two way of cheese making however, they both have the same stages after coagulation stage to the end of the process at ripening stage.
According to the chart, nowadays cheese making requires raw milk to be pasteurizated first and then come to standardization and filtration stages before go into coagulation while traditional ways does not require these steps and raw milk will be put right into coagulation step. In coagulation step, fermenting microorganisms will be added to the mixture with rennet – a type of enzyme. The mixture will then become curds and whey and these things will be cutted before sturring and cooking.
After being cooked they will be put into a filter where whey will be removed and the remaining curds will be milled. In the milling stage, salt will be added to it and this thing can be use as cottage and cream cheese, which is called fresh cheese or will then continue to be putted into mold and be pressed after that to drain the additional whey. The cheese after that will be ripened for a certain of time and then become ripened cheese, thereby, completing the process.

In the coagulation step, fermenting microorganisms are added to the mixture along with rennet - a type of enzyme. The mixture then becomes curds and whey and these things are cut before curdling and cooking.
After cooking, they are placed in a filter where the whey is removed and the remaining curds are ground. In the milling stage, salt is added and this thing can be used as cottage cheese and cream cheese which is called fresh cheese or it will continue to be put in mold and then pressed to drain the additional whey. The cheese is then aged for a certain period of time and then becomes ripened cheese, thus completing the process.
