A small 20-litre cheese vat is a common first step for companies considering cheese making. A manufacturing company from the Sverdlovsk Region chose exactly this format: to develop recipes and assess demand in the local market before investing in a full-size workshop.

In January 2022 the customer received a VS-20 cheese vat made by the Milberg factory. Despite its compact volume, the unit follows the same logic as large cheese vats: jacket heating, temperature control and the full cycle of working with the coagulum — from adding the starter culture to stirring and scalding the curd grains.

A small batch size means freedom to experiment: with twenty litres you can try several cheese varieties within a week and fine-tune temperature steps and curd drying time without risking large batches of milk. The modes found are then scaled up unchanged to larger cheese vats of the same range.

The manufacturer's location was also convenient for the Ural-based customer: the factory is in Yekaterinburg, so shipping, configuration and start-up advice were handled directly, without long logistics or intermediaries.
