The grainy tvorog Tradition is a non maturing (fresh) soft cheese ready for consumption immediately after completion of the manufacturing process. It is a stabilised protein grain cooled to between 4°- 8°С which is traditionally offered unmolded and packed in commercial packaging with a weight from 100 to 500 g.
The yield is between 11% and 15% depending on the casein and fat content of the milk. The colour is white to pale yellow with a well defined sour milk taste and light creamy aftertaste. According to the grain size it can be classified as follows:

- medium grain: grain with a size from 6 to 9 mm when produced with DONI®O Vat;
- large grain: grain with a size from 9 to 12 mm when produced from high quality milk with DONI®O Vat.
Depending on the quantity, the type of starter culture and the coagulation temperature, the technological process can be classified as follows:
