The right cheese at the right pace
The right ripening solutions take flavor and appearance of cheese in the desired direction, but also they can even optimize productivity. Cheese ripening can be sped up to reach market faster or slowed down to last longer on the shelf. It happens naturally, but it takes science to get there.
Partnering to optimize the profitability
By accelerating the ripening, cheesemakers can increase productivity and storage savings to optimize their profitability. Our DVS® LH and DVS® CR culture series can reduce the ripening time of cheddar or continental cheese by up to 25%!
In cases where producers of soft cheese wish to extend shelf life, some of our SWING® cultures slow down ripening resulting in a longer shelf life, expanding opportunities to broaden an export market and reduce waste across the value chain.
“In the ripening team at Chr. Hansen, we share a deep fascination of how the right combination of cultures and enzymes can create exciting new taste experiences,” says Marlene Boiesen.
