RENNET /microbial rennet/
« on: December 27, 2017, 11:44:47 AM »
I have found a whole seller of microbial rennet for making my own cheese. But they are offering me microbial rennet with 15,000imcug, enzyme activity. I have no idea about the preferred amount of enzyme activity in rennet for making mozzarella. Anyone know the specs?

Questions:
1- Enzyme activity of preferred amount for microbial rennet powder? (for mozzarella)
2- Enzyme activity of preferred amount for mild lipase powder? (for mozzarella)
    for the lipase, they have offered me 2 types: 50,000u/g, 10,000u/g, I don't know which one is suitable to make good tasting mozzarella.

Hi Andy,
I use about 1/2+1/8 tsp of an 1100 imcu g rennet powder for 100L of raw milk. I get coag on target around 40-50 minutes. 15,000 imcu g must be so much more potent!  Less than 10% of my dose! Wow!

It's teaspoon.
I haven't received any emails from you. I received some others messages on forum private message but not from you.
