Methods for making kefir and fermented milks based on kefir
Abstract
SUMMARY Flavour, aroma and appearance of milks fermented with commercially available kefir grains were compared with similar characteristics of heat treated (90 ΰC/30 min) milks that had been fermented with aroma producing starters in addition to the kefir grains. The starters used were either a mixture ofStreptococcus lactissubsp.diacetilactisandLeuconostoc cremoris(lactic culture) or ofStr. thermophilusandLactobacillus bulgaricus(yogurt culture). Two methods of fermentation were investigated involving removal of the grains followed by (i) a second fermentation of the kefir with the aroma-producing organisms and (ii) combining the kefir with aroma-producing organisms for use as a starter to ferment a further sample of heat-treated milk. Products were assessed by a taste panel and marked for acceptability. Addition of lactic or yogurt cultures resulted in products with increased mean scores for aroma and more acceptable flavours.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
