| Aging bags for cheese with holes like Swiss cheese or Gouda. Allows escape of CO2 while protecting from moisture and mold. |
| Gas Management |
| Allows escape of carbon dioxide while maintaining barrier against oxygen and moisture. |
| The Eyes Have It |
| Vacuum packaging with gassing cheese bags keeps cheese pliable enough to prevent cracking during CO2 escape while allowing gas bubbles to form nice, round eyes. |
| These specific cheeses undergo fermentation, which not only enhances their distinct flavors but also produces carbon dioxide. This gas forms bubbles that create the characteristic eyes in the cheese. While the size of these eyes does not impact the cheese’s flavor, it can be influenced by factors such as temperature, storage time, and acidity levels. |
| For cheesemakers and dairy processors, selecting appropriate aging materials is crucial. The chosen packaging must effectively balance protection against oxygen, moisture, and mold, while also allowing for the release of carbon dioxide. CRYOVAC® brand Gassing Cheese Shrink Bags are designed precisely for this purpose, offering exceptional barrier performance for the aging, maturation, and storage of cheeses with holes. |
