By scalding as low as 88°, the curd keeps soft and the acid is developed before thecurd becomes solid. We use more rennet, less salt, and less heat when making skim-milkcheese, than without skimming the milk. The salt is applied upon the slightest appearanceof the acid. We use it at the rate of one and one-half pounds of salt to the thousandpounds of milk.
