Ricotta cheese flocculation tank
Optimize your ricotta production with an efficient flocculation tank designed to maximize yield and ensure smooth, trouble-free processing of full-fat whey into high-quality ricotta cheese.

Facilitates Optimal Ricotta Flocculation
The Ricotta Cheese Flocculation Tank from Priamo Food Technologies is an engineered solution tailored for the challenges of industrial ricotta production. Crafted entirely from AISI 304 stainless steel, this system integrates a vertical cylindrical flocculator with a conical bottom and a unique steam injection system. This design ensures efficient and uniform flocculation of full-fat whey, optimizing ricotta yield while maintaining product quality.
Ideal for dairy production lines, it supports continuous and automated operations, seamlessly fitting into processing environments aimed at producing ricotta cheese, full-fat whey ricotta, and mixed ricotta products. The system’s control panel and walkway provide easy access for monitoring and maintenance, alongside a washing device equipped with removable spray balls to ensure thorough cleaning. The tank’s exterior and interior feature a 2B surface finish with smoothed and brushed welds, enhancing durability and hygiene.
This flocculation tank is a robust choice for dairy producers and cheese manufacturing facilities seeking to enhance their production processes with reliable, efficient, and easy-to-maintain equipment.
