Danisco optimises Dutch & continental cheese processing with CHOOZIT™ Classic
Danisco introduces CHOOZIT™ Classic, a new range of cost-efficient DVI (Direct Vat Inoculation) cultures for Dutch and continental cheese.
Complex mesophilic blends
Through its ongoing research and development work, Danisco has successfully optimised traditional cultures of proven cheese-making ability to design CHOOZIT™ Classic. These complex purely mesophilic starter cultures include a high proportion of Lactococcus cremoris combined with Lactococcus diacetylactis to bring out a strong aromatic profile. Optimised control of acidification kinetics and enzymatic power brings a positive and consistent result in the final cheese.
Competitive cost-in-use
Classic by name, Classic by nature, these starter cultures have been traditionally used by the industry for many years often as bulk starter cultures – What is new? Danisco’s operational and innovative technology now allows these traditional starters to be applied in a convenient DVI presentation at a competitive cost-in-use. CHOOZIT™ Classic cultures have a similar acidification profile to standard bulk starters and require an inoculation rate of just a few grams per 100 litres of milk, without modifying the dry matter, and brining pH is reached within the required time. Therefore, cheese makers can now inoculate much more milk with much less culture. Moreover, the CHOOZIT™ Classic range has the ability to perform optimally over a wide temperature range from 32°C to 37°C. This feature optimises processing efficiency, from ripening to brining of gouda-type cheese.
‘CHOOZIT™ Classic is designed for traditional mesophilic cheese processes – the reliability and convenience of DVI can now be enjoyed at a competitive price without the need to modify the cheese make,’ comments John Rea, Cheese Business Director with Danisco Cultures.
