What requirements apply to cheese production from cows, goats or sheeps milk?
The requirements that apply to cheese production from cows, goats or sheeps milk can be found in the Pasteurized Milk Ordinance, and in particular, in the requirements under items 1p through 22p. These regulations are the same as the Colorado Grade A Pasteurized Fluid Milk and Milk Product Regulations, which cover fluid milk and milk products formulated from cows, sheeps or goats milk. Among these articles are 1%, 2%, skim and whole milk, cottage cheese, half and half, sour cream, whipping cream and yogurt. These regulations also apply to frozen desserts, hard and soft cheeses made from pasteurized milk and properly-aged cheeses made from raw milk. All Grade A milk and milk products sold in Colorado are required to be packaged and produced in a Grade A milk plant approved by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environments (CDPHE) Consumer Protection Division.
