Brookfield Engineering have unveiled the new TA-CEF cheese extensibility fixture to measure the stringiness of molten cheese.
Used in conjunction with the CT3 texture analyzer, the TA-CEF is a valuable tool for manufacturers who produce cheese related products and also for academic institutions researching cheese products. In regards to use, the cheese is heated to a specified temperature and the probe is immersed in the sample container. The CT3 texture analyzer then tests the stringiness of the sample by measuring the force required to withdraw the probe and recording the breaking point of the cheese.
Brookfield offers many fixtures and probes designed for testing the physical properties of a wide variety of food products and is constantly developing new accessories in response to specific customer needs.
