Whey is a by-product of cheese or casein production. There are 3 kinds of whey, depending on the coagulation method used and the type of cheese: standard, sweet or acid whey. The transformation of liquid whey into whey powder requires several steps: concentration, crystallization and drying. Lactose crystallization is an essential step in obtaining high-quality whey.
