The swelling of cheeses

Lactic fermentation is a fundamental part of cheese making. Sometimes, however, it can produce abnormal fermentations, resulting in defective cheeses. The term abnormal fermentation refers to those undesirable, undesirable fermentations that cause alterations in the cheese and are common to almost all varieties. Generally, these fermentations are major gas producers and cause cheese swellings.
