Want to know more?

Calcium Chloride is required when using homogenised milk for cheesemaking. It is added to the milk at the same amount and time as the rennet

Homogenisation changes the chemical composition of milk and reduces calcium levels. Calcium is needed for milk to become curd, so adding Calcium Chloride boosts the calcium levels in the milk, and supports the process of setting a curd.

Calcium chloride is also added when using goats milk, which can be lower in calcium and have a produced a less firm curd.
