Activated Charcoal Powder, 10 oz.

Activated Charcoal Powder, 10 oz.

Activated charcoal is a food grade charcoal used on soft cheese to neutralize the surface. Ash (activated charcoal) can help create a friendly environment for the growth of penicillium candidum and other ripening molds while inhibiting unwanted mold growth. Molds such as penicillium candidum grow best at lower acid levels than typical fresh cheese, including most goat cheese. Adding ash neutralizes the surface acid, creating a sweeter surface, especially for high acid lactic cheese. This helps the mold surface develop quickly and more thoroughly. It also increases the rate of surface protein, which is responsible for a nice translucent area under the rind. Comes in a 10 oz. bottle.
