Kasomel

Kasomel™ 1110 is a special salt for spreadable cheese with no or very little creaming reaction. Generally, this salt is used for the production of processed cheese in tubes or in cups or in specific shapes for which later hardening must absolutely not occur. It is also very good to process fluid processed cheese for the needs of food industry. Its ion exchange capability is quite good and its creaming reaction is weak. It increases the pH value of processed cheese by 0.3 to 0.4 when used at 3% on the raw materials.

Kasomel™ 1112 is an alkaline correcting salt. It decreases the pH value of processed cheese by 1.2 to 1.3 when used at 3 % on the raw materials. It can be used with any other salt when a strong pH increase is required. Its ion exchange capacity is very weak.

Kasomel™ 1145 is a melting salt specially designed to act on dairy proteins. This acidic correcting salt decreases the pH value of the end product by – 0.4 / - 0.5 when using 3% Kasomel™ 1145 calculated on raw materials. It can be mixed with other emulsifying salts when a strong pH decrease during the melting stage is needed. It is mainly used to avoid a citrate taste which automatically appears when citric acid is used for pH value correction. It is a food grade phosphates blend and appears as a hygroscopic white powder without foreign matters.

Kasomel™ 2185 has a phosphates blend food grade and an appearance of hygroscopic white powder without foreign matters. It is a melting salt designed for the production of block processed cheese with enhanced remelting properties used for pizzas, toasted sandwiches, etc.

Kasomel™ 2273 has a phosphates blend food grade and an appearance of hygroscopic white powder without foreign matters. This emulsifying salt is used for the production of spreadable and sliceable processed cheese with a medium fat content. It is recommended when using Emmenthal or Dutch cheese as raw material. It has a medium creaming reaction and a good ion exchange capability.

Kasomel™ 2285 has a phosphates blend food grade and an appearance of hygroscopic white powder without foreign matters. It is a melting salt designed for the production of UHT spreadable cheese that has medium to high fat content.

Kasomel™ 2366 has a phosphates blend food grade and an appearance of hygroscopic white powder without foreign matters. Due to its high creaming reaction, Kasomel™ 2366 is used to produce high fat content processed cheese, either sliceable or spreadable. It is frequently used with Kasomel™ 2394, which allows a soft adjustment of pH without using an alkaline correcting salt.

Kasomel™ 2394 has a phosphates blend food grade and an appearance of hygroscopic white powder without foreign matters. It has a strong creaming reaction with a good ion exchange capacity. It is often used together with Kasomel™ 2366, which allows a softer adjustment of pH value without using an acidic correcting salt. This salt is used for processed cheese with a high fat content, either spreadable or sliceable.

Kasomel™ 3138 has a phosphates blend food grade and an appearance of hygroscopic white powder without foreign matters. It is a special salt for the production of block processed cheese, either very firm or heat stable (for incorporation into foodstuffs like sausages, patties). It gives a highly viscous paste during cooking.

Kasomel™ 3172 has a phosphates blend food grade and an appearance of hygroscopic white powder without foreign matters. The Kasomel™ 3172 for block processed cheese is used when a very clear cheese flow is required. As a result, it is recommended for use in block cheese based on Emmenthal or Dutch cheeses. It has an excellent ion exchange capacity and no creaming reaction. It is designed for liquid paste during cooking and a rather "elastic" final texture.
