ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
I have taken sincere efforts in this project
however it would not have been possible
without the kind support and help of many
individuals.
I would like to thank my school for providing me
with facilities required to do my project.
I am highly indebted to Ms. Safeeha for their
valuable guidance which has sustained my
efforts in all the stages of my project.
My thanks and appreciations to my fellow
classmates for their support as well.
Soy milk
Soy milk (also called soya milk, soymilk, soybean milk, or soy
juice) and sometimes referred to as soy drink/beverage is a
beverage made from soybeans. A stable emulsion of oil, water,
and protein, it is produced by soaking dry soybeans and grinding
them with water. Soy milk contains about the same proportion of
protein as cow's milk: around 3.5%; also 2% fat, 2.9% carbohydrate,
and 0.5% ash. Soy milk can be made at home with traditional
kitchen tools or with a soy milk machine.
The coagulated protein from soy milk can be made into Tofu, just as
dairy milk can be made into cheese.

Preparation
Soy milk can be made from whole soybeans or full-fat soy flour.
The dry beans are soaked in water overnight or for a minimum of
3 hours or more depending on the temperature of the water. The
rehydrated beans then undergo wet grinding with enough added
water to give the desired solids content to the final product. The
ratio of water to beans on a weight basis should be about 10:1.
The resulting slurry or purée is brought to a boil in order to improve
its nutritional value by heat inactivating soybean trypsin inhibitor,
improve its flavor and to sterilize the product. Heating at or near
the boiling point is continued for a period of time, 15-20 minutes,
followed by the removal of an insoluble residue (soy pulp fiber or
okara) by filtration.

Soy yogurt

Soy yogurt, (Soya yoghurt in British English) also referred to as
Soygurt or Yofu (a portmanteau of yoghurt and tofu), is yogurt
prepared using soy milk, yogurt bacteria, mainly Lactobacillus
bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus and sometimes
additional sweetener, like fructose, glucose, or raw sugar . It is
suitable for vegans, as the bacteria for shop-bought soy yogurt are
usually not grown on a dairy base.
Soy yogurt can be prepared at home using the same method as dairy
yogurt . One tablespoon of sugar per 1 liter of unsweetened soy milk
may be added to promote bacterial fermentation. Soy milk on its own
lacks the lactose (milk sugar) that is the basic food for the yogurt
bacteria.
Soy yogurt may have a slight beany soy taste when made directly
from freshly prepared soymilk, but this is less pronounced in shop-
bought soy yogurt and in soy yogurt made from commercial soy milk.
Soy yogurt contains less fat than yogurt made with whole milk. This
amounts to about 2.7% (the same percentage as soy milk), versus
3.5% in dairy yogurt. However, dairy yogurt can be made with 2%, 1%,
or fat-free milk, and these cases, it is lower in fat than soy yogurt.
Buffalo curd

Buffalo curd (in Hindi - "Dahi") is a traditional and

nutritious dairy product prepared by buffalo milk and it is
popular throughout the south Asian countries such as
India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, etc. Buffalo milk is traditionally
better than cow milk for curd due to its higher fat content
making a thicker curd. Mostly clay pots are used as
packaging material for Buffalo curd.
Buffalo curds is obtained by curdling (coagulating) buffalo milk using microbial activities.
In this process lactose in buffalo milk is converted in to lactic acid using several micro-
organisms. Several micro- organism species are involved in the fermentation such as
Streptococcus lactis, Streptococcus diacetylactis, Streptococcus cremoris, Lactobacillus
bulgaricusand and Streptococcus thermophillus.
Buffalo curd has a higher nutritional value of protein, fat,

lactose, minerals and vitamins. It should have 7.5% of
milk fat, 8.5% of milk solids and 4.5% of Milk acid (lactic
acid). Quality of the curd is totally depend on the starter
culture. Fermentation also develops the characteristic
flavor and colour of the product.
Buffalo curd can be made in both traditional and industrial

forms. Traditionally buffalo milk is filtered and boiled, the
scum is removed and it is cooled to room temperature. A
few spoonfuls of a previous batch of curd are added and it
is then mixed well and poured into clay pots. These are
sealed by wrapping a piece of paper over the pot and
allowing it to stand for 12 hours.
EXPERIMENT
Preparation of soyabean milk and its comparison with the natural milk with
respect to curd formation, effect of temperature and taste.
REQUIREMENTS
Beakers, pestle and mortar, measuring cylinder, glass
rod, tripod-stand, thermometer, muslin cloth, burner.
Soyabeans, buffalo milk, fresh curd and distilled
water.
PROCEDURE
1) Soak about 150g of Soya beans in sufficient amount of water so that they
are completely dipped in it.
2) Take out swollen Soyabeans and grind them to a very fine paste
3) Take out swollen Soyabeans and grind them to a very fine paste and filter it
through a muslin cloth. Clear white filtrate is soyabean milk. Compare its
taste with buffalo milk.
4) Take 50 ml of soyabean milk in three other beakers and heat the beakers to
30°, 40°and 50°C respectively. Add ¼ spoonful curd to each of these beakers.
Leave the beakers undisturbed for 8 hours and curd is formed.
5) Similarly, take 50 ml of buffalo milk in three beakers and heat the beakers to
30°, 40° and 50°C respectively. Add ¼ spoonful curd to each of these beakers.
Leave the beakers undisturbed for 8 hours and curd is formed.
