Salt for Cheesemaking - Medium Grain

Salt for Cheesemaking – Medium Grain

$9.00

  • 1kg
  • Natural sea salt produced in Australia by solar evaporation and then kiln dried.
  • The texture is several times more course than the very fine salt and this will ensure a slower rate of dissolving if added onto the cheese surface. Suitable for addition onto the cheese surface and into cheese brines.
  • It is refined by washing with clean saturated brine to remove surface impurities, drained of excess moisture, dried and mesh screened to approximate size of 1mm.
  • Complies with Australian New Zealand Food Standards Code 2.10.2.
  • Crystal is transparent to white opaque solid.
  • 5% NaCl.
  • Contains no anticaking or free-flowing additives or conditioners. This may cause some clumping over time, but clumps are very easily broken down.
  • The product being a natural evaporite may contain occasional minute
    inclusions of extraneous matter from the crystal growing
    This extraneous matter may manifest itself as
    black specks or a light-coloured material, neither of which is
    harmful in any way.
  • This salt does not have a shelf life in the traditional sense. Salt will not spoil or support pathogenic growth.
  • Premium grade used by commercial cheesemakers in Australia.

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.
