Calf, Lamb & Kid Goat Lipase

Some of the finest lipases comes from New Zealand.  Calf, Lamb and Kid-Goat Lipase are specifically blended for our store to ensure 80 cfu/gram for enhancing the aroma and flavor of cheese.  The 80 cfu/gram are active lipase enzymes that produce a specific ratio of free fatty acids as a result of milkfat lipolysis when added directly to warmed milk.   The lipase powders are extracted from pre-gastric tongue root glands of calves, lambs or kid-goats.

We offer three types of lipase in 100 gram (100 gram free samples are available to licensed cheesemakers) and 500 gram quantities:

Calf Pregastric Lipase:  An all purpose lipase that adds a buttery and delicate to taste to your cheese.  This can be used in any type of cheese for a slightly enhanced flavor.  Renco lipase 80 lfg/gram.

Lamb Pregastric Lipase:  This lipase is a sharper piquant flavor.  This traditional flavor works well in Pecorino, Grana and Manchego styles of cheeses.  Renco lipase 80 lfg/gram.

Kid-Goat Pregastric Lipase:  This lipase is extra piquant with an aromatic, spicy flavor and typically used in aged goat milk cheeses, Provolone, Feta, or Romano. Renco lipase 80/lfg/gram.

Suggested Usage Amount:  Add desired amount to 20 times its weight in cool, non-chlorinated water. Stir solution frequently over a period of 10 minutes, stirring just prior to addition to milk. Add to the milk in vat 10 minutes prior to the addition of coagulant.
