Benefits of using SX 34

·         SX 34 ripens the cheese from within the cheese paste as well as from the surface. The flavour is similar to what is found in raw milk camembert cheeses in France. SX34 will hasten/accelerate flavour development. For example, on a white mould cheese, the flavour development is accelerated by about one to two weeks. The flavour can be quite pronounced particularly for aged cheeses so minimal dosage only is required.
·         SX 34 contain Staphylococcus Xylosus and is a member of the Micrococci family and is one of the best options available to cheesemakers to develop lots of aroma and flavour to the cheese and to break down the texture of the cheese during maturation.
·         SX 34 establishes itself rapidly on the surface of the cheese to inhibit potentially contaminating micro-organisms but will not affect the growth of Geotrichum or White Moulds Spores.
·         When added to wash rind cheeses, it grows faster than B linens and protects the cheese against contaminants while the B Linens establishes itself.
·         SX 34 can be used independently or in conjunction with white mould, Geotrichum, blue moulds and all Aroma and Ripening Cultures for a more complex flavour profile.
·         SX 34 can be used for any variety of soft cheese or hard cheese.

Cheesemaking

Thank you for Your Interest in a Cheesemaking Course

Making cheese prior to the course is not essential but it is very strongly recommended. I have found that over many years of providing cheesemaking courses, having some basic cheesemaking experience before you get to the course is an enormous help with taking in the information provided at the course.

To help you start to make cheese at home, there are several kits available, starting from $60 plus postage. Each kit has detailed instructions so that you can easily make lots of cheese in your own home, without having made cheese previously. See the range of available kits here. You can easily add to the kits once you have completed the course.

As an incentive to start making cheese, I am offering you a 5% discount on the price of any of the kits (excluding postage) - Just add the kit to your cart and use the code KIT at the checkout.
