Zusammenfassung:Cheese curd is washed under controlled conditions to produce a desired moisture level therein by continuously feeding milled curd, and water at a selected temperature between 60 DEG -85 DEG F., into a rotating annular vessel wherein the curd and water are agitated while being carried on a circular course. The curd and a portion of water are continuously discharged prior to being carried a full rotation of the vessel; and the rate of rotation of the vessel is adjustable to limit the time that the curd is carried therein.
