The IFF ChoozIt Vintage starter culture is a new product created with cheddar cheese manufacturers in mind to help them achieve consistent results with every batch they produce. The starter culture is meant to support the product of aged cheddar cheese by combating against gas, bitterness, crystal formation, textural and color defects. The solution also helps with combating undesirable flavors that can come about during the aging process, while also supporting a streamlined cheesemaking process.
Senior Global Product Manager for Cheese Annie Mornet spoke on the IFF ChoozIt Vintage starter culture saying, “ChoozIt Vintage is an easy-to-use culture that helps manufacturers overcome undesirable flavour development such as bitterness during ageing, delivering highly reliable pH and texture results throughout the ripening process.
