    Abstract:
    Acid whey resulting from the production of soft cheeses is a disposal problem for the dairy industry. Few uses have been found for acid whey because of its high ash content, low pH, and high organic acid content. The objective of this study was to explore the potential of recovery of whey protein from cottage cheese acid whey for use in yogurt. Cottage cheese acid whey and Cheddar cheese whey were produced from standard cottage cheese and Cheddar cheese-making procedures, respectively. The whey was separated and pasteurized by high temperature, short time pasteurization and stored at 4°C. Food-grade ammonium hydroxide was used to neutralize the acid whey to a pH of 6.4. The whey was heated to 50°C and concentrated using ultrafiltration and diafiltration with 11 polyethersulfone cartridge membrane filters (10,000-kDa cutoff) to 25% total solids and 80% protein. Skim milk was concentrated to 6% total protein. Nonfat, unflavored set-style yogurts (6.0 ± 0.1% protein, 15 ± 1.0% solids) were made from skim milk with added acid whey protein concentrate, skim milk with added sweet whey protein concentrate, or skim milk concentrate. Yogurt mixes were standardized to lactose and fat of 6.50% and 0.10%, respectively. Yogurt was fermented at 43°C to pH 4.6 and stored at 4°C. The experiment was replicated in triplicate. Titratable acidity, pH, whey separation, color, and gel strength were measured weekly in yogurts through 8 wk. Trained panel profiling was conducted on 0, 14, 28, and 56 d. Fat-free yogurts produced with added neutralized fresh liquid acid whey protein concentrate had flavor attributes similar those with added fresh liquid sweet whey protein but had lower gel strength attributes, which translated to differences in trained panel texture attributes and lower consumer liking scores for fat-free yogurt made with added acid whey protein ingredient. Difference in pH was the main contributor to texture differences, as higher pH in acid whey protein yogurts changed gel structure formation and water-holding capacity of the yogurt gel. In a second part of the study, the yogurt mix was reformulated to address texture differences. The reformulated yogurt mix at 2% milkfat and using a lower level of sweet and acid whey ingredient performed at parity with control yogurts in consumer sensory trials. Fresh liquid acid whey protein concentrates from cottage cheese manufacture can be used as a liquid protein ingredient source for manufacture of yogurt in the same factory.
