Calcium Chloride with Dropper Cap - 50 ml

Strength: This is a 30% calcium chloride solution

The addition of Calcium Chloride generally improves the rennet coagulation properties of your milk and this is particularly true when using pasteurised milk that has been stored in a refrigerator.

Pasteurising and then cold storing milk impairs the milk’s rennet coagulation properties, reduces the recovery of protein and fat, and reduces cheese yield. There is a scientific explanation that we will not go into here; however, the addition of Calcium Chloride, which is a salt solution, solves this problem with milk purchased from the grocery store, and allows you to make cheese with this milk by restoring the milk’s ability to coagulate and form a good curd with the addition of rennet.
