The most common method of pasteurization in the United States is High Temperature Short Time (HTST) pasteurization, which uses metal plates and hot water to raise milk temperatures to 161ºF for not less than 15 seconds, followed by rapid cooling. Ultra Pasteurization (UP) is a process similar to HTST pasteurization, but using higher temperatures and longer times. 5, record 1, English, - high%2Dtemperature%20short%2Dtime%20pasteurization
