Cheese is a nutritious food that is a good source of bioactive compounds. Therefore, it is important to understand the effects of different processing parameters on cheese properties during the ripening process. Here, we prepared model soft cheeses by using different concentrations of papain (0.2, 0.3, and 0.4%), coagulation temperatures (30, 34, and 37°C), and coagulation times (20,30, and 40min) to evaluate changes in yield, moisture content, pH, lactic acid bacteria population, texture, proteolysis, volatile compounds, and instrumental sensory analysis during a 50 days ripening period. The moisture contents were 53%-62%, and moisture-adjusted yields ranged from 11.2kg to 15.6kg per 100kg milk. Moreover, during the ripening period, the number of lactic acid bacteria increased by approximately 0.5 log CFU/g. A significant increase in the total concentration of free amino acids in response to increases in papain concentration and coagulation temperature was observed. Coagulation temperature was also found to have a...
