Our Dairy and equipment::

Sirana Gligora - nova sirana
The large tanks at the front of our dairy are used for the reception and storage of raw milk. The raw milk is then heat treated in our pasteuriser before being pumped through to one of our three large cooking vats, this is where all the magic happens. The curds and whey are then cut and while the whey is pumped to special containers where we make Paska Skuta, the curd is fed into filling molds ready to be pressed. After pressing, the young Paski Sir will be placed into a pool of brine where it will stay for 24 hours, this is to help the rind get started. The next day, after lifting and squeezing, the Paški is taken to our 6 meter deep cave where it will be given special affinage attention for the next 90 days.

The whey mean while, has been heated to a very high temperature and the resulting Paška Skuta is delivered fresh each day to our outlets.
