DEVELOPMENT OF A UNIFORM TEMPERATURE GRADIENT IN A BLOCK OF CHEESE Abstract of the Invention The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for developing a uniform temperature gradient in a block of cheese. The apparatus includes a chamber for receiving a cheese block. The chamber has a uniform cross section and has opposed openings separated by the length of the chamber. The chamber is surrounded by insulation on the peripheral surface between the openings. A heat exchange surface is disposed over and closes one of the openings. A second heat exchange surface is disposed over and closes the other of the openings. The temperature of the two heat exchange surfaces are different. When a block of cheese is disposed within the chamber, a temperature gradient can be established in the block of cheese in a relatively short period of time. Thereafter, the cheese block can be sliced into appropriate sections for determining moisture content as a function of cheese temperature.
