Activated Charcoal Powder, 10 oz.

$21.95

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.

Thanks for your great service. When my daughter called to tell me the grinder I'd ordered for her was delivered today, I was amazed.

Care Instructions

Store in a cool, dry location.

Use Instructions

Mix ash with 1:5 to 1:8 salt ratio before dusting onto the cheese surface.

After applying, within a few days, the black rind will become grey as white mold grow through it. Within 8-10 days the entire rind should be white.

Ashed rind cheese can be easier to care for and usually develop a blue-gray, mottled rind, condensed, nutty texture and strong creamy flavor.

If mold growth is blue instead of white the cheese is too acidic. If the molds are grey and hairy, the cheese is not acidic enough, and is retaining too much moisture as a result.
