Appparatus and method for continuously manufacturing cheese from cheese curd via mechanical means in which the curd is drained, matted and cheddared while carried upon a pair of conveyors running in opposite directions; milled and discharged upon a third conveyor, and sprayed while on the third conveyor at periodic intervals over a period of 12-20 minutes with a saturated water-based brine having a temperature of 80 DEG F. and pH of 5.1, the curd being permitted to rest undisturbed initially upon the third conveyor for a period of several minutes and being therafter agitated to distribute the brine more uniformly therethrough and being maintained throughout the process at a temperature of substantially 98 DEG F. Approximately eighteen (18) gallons of said brine is being uniformly sprayed upon each 1000 lbs. of curd.
