Cheese Yield Estimator, a new app designed to help those in the dairy industry to predict cheese yields with the industry-standard Van Slyke Cheese Yield Formula. The free app defaults to the classic cheddar version of the formula, but can be adjusted for other cheeses with simple changes to the constants for Fat Conversion Ratio, Casein Ratio, Casein Loss, Solids Recovery and Moisture/CWT. Adjustments can also be made to calculate yields on any size batch-from single to extremely high volume-and can accommodate producers ranging from artisanal to industrial.

The Cheese Yield Estimator app is available here.
