The main patent 1 911 759 relates to a device for the production of soft cheese with a filling chute which can be charged from above with a mixture of curd and whey, a roller with a plurality of rollers which is rotatable about a horizontal axis with its peripheral surface against the lower limit of the filling chute of the roll of Portionierungszellen which along surface lines, wherein the openings of the Portionierungszellen in its highest position at the lower outlet of the feeding chute connect, further comprising a roller, the cells surrounding cover, in SSm _ä ssige embodiment, the "egg. direction em has in the hopper angeodnele Füllstandsmeßglied on welcJ "the ^£ rmchen s,

The Füllstandsmeßg .cd can, for example, a Swimmer se-n, who when reaching the maximum or minimum permissible fill level, the corresponding switching contacts are actuated.

In the main patent 1 911 759 it is already provided that the outflow of cheese curd from the cheese vat is slowed down by a vacuum in the cheese vat. In order to be able to control the outflow of curd cheese from the cheese maker, it is now proposed in a further development of the invention that an air supply line is connected to the cheese maker, in which there is a control valve which is controlled by the controller.

An embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to the drawing. It indicates _ _
