CSK Paracoat Cheese Protectant for semi-hard and hard cheeses is the most suitable form to improve the conditioning, flavor and appearance of cheese during ripening and storage. Besides the appearance and packaging of cheese, the quality is mainly determined by the quality of milk, the selection of cheese ingredients, the production process and the conditions during the ripening of cheese. During ripening the specific flavor of naturally ripened cheese is developed. Cheese coating plays an important role in this process. Besides offering protection against yeasts and molds, the type of coating determines the appearance of the cheese and the final desired flavor, texture and consistency. The method of application and the properties of the coating determine the final result. Regarding these aspects it is important to take into account the factors which influence the functionality of the cheese coating in the cheese making and ripening process, such as cheese type and shape, type of cheese vat, humidity of the rind, viscosity of the coating and parameters of the coating machine. This can either be used alone or under cheese wax. This product can either be dipped or brushed on.
