    Use calcium chloride in home cheese making to restore the calcium balance of the milk. This is usually only needed when using store bought, pasteurized and homogenized milk, as these processes decrease the calcium levels in the milk and can affect the clotting properties.

    Calcium chloride should be added before adding culture and rennet. Apply the dosage suggested on the pack and ensure that is mixed thoroughly into the milk.

    Calcium Chloride is an important ingredient for home cheese makers who cannot access fresh milk. Store bought milk has generally been pasteurized and homogenized, which affects the calcium levels in the milk and it’s clotting properties. By adding calcium chloride to store bought milk, the calcium levels of the milk are restored, thereby making it suitable for making cheese.
