Title: pH Chart
Post by: Beans on February 07, 2012, 12:02:30 AM
I started playing with my old PH meter while making cheese and I remembered someone mentioning a flocculation chart with pH targets.  Any suggestions?

Hi Beans, welcome to the forum.

My extended floc chart is here (https://cheeseforum.org/forum/index.php/topic,8128.msg56641.html#msg56641) but doesn't have pH targets, I gues you can devise it for a certain recipe by reading and searching the forum.

Hi,

pH is rather useless without a specific make recipe and process. It works as a system. If you post the cheese you want to make, we can help. Generally, the ranges are identical for all cheese families.... .-5-.2 drop before rennet, then 6.3-6.5 drain for alpines and tommes, 6.0-6.3 for others, etc. I've posted these ranges several times before.
