Maturing soft cheeses, such as Camembert or Brie, is a delicate art that relies on rigorous control of environmental parameters. In a microcheese factory, managing air, humidity and temperature can be complex without the right tools.
This is where textile ducts and the ModulAir system come in. Together, these solutions help to optimize the quality of refining, while meeting hygiene and performance requirements.
1. Why is a textile sheath ideal for maturing soft cheeses?
Soft cheeses require a specific environment :
High humidity , around 90 to 95% , to prevent the crust from drying out.
Gentle air circulation to promote a uniform crust and limit ripening defects.
A controlled temperature , generally between 10 and 14°C , for optimal fermentation.
Textile sheaths meet these needs effectively thanks to several characteristics:
Homogeneous air diffusion
The textile sheath is designed to diffuse air uniformly through calibrated orifices or porous strips. This prevents the formation of areas of over-humidity or dryness , conditions often causing defects such as:
A cracked or dried crust .
Sticky crusts caused by stagnant moisture【22†source】.
Thanks to an even distribution, each cheese benefits from a stable and controlled environment, essential for developing a natural and regular rind .
Control of humidity
Humidity is the heart of refining. The textile sheath, combined with a regulation system such as ModulAir, guarantees a constant humidity level . This allows:
A thin, well-developed crust .
A soft and creamy paste, typical of soft cheeses like Camembert or Brie.
Adaptation to air speed
Soft doughs are sensitive to airflow speed . Too high a speed dries out the crust, while too low a speed can result in poor moisture distribution . Textile ducts allow the speed to be adjusted according to the specific needs of the piece.
Hygiene and cleaning made easy
In a micro-cheese factory, hygiene is essential. The textile sheaths are:
Easy to disassemble and clean to remove contaminants.
Adapted to agri-food health standards , which guarantees a healthy environment for refining.
2. The ModulAir: an innovative solution for micro-cheese factories
To further optimize the performance of textile ducts, the use of ModulAir is essential.
What is ModulAir?
The ModulAir is a compact and modular solution designed for the treatment of hygienic air in food production environments. It allows to precisely regulate :
The temperature
Relative humidity
Air speed and distribution
The ModulAir is particularly suitable for small to medium-sized ripening rooms, such as those in micro-cheese factories, thanks to its installation flexibility and tailored performance.
3. The combined benefits of textile ducts and ModulAir
By combining the use of textile ducts with ModulAir , a micro-cheese factory obtains a complete solution for the management of environmental parameters. Here are the main advantages:
Improving the quality of cheeses
Controlled air circulation, combined with humidity regulation, makes it possible to obtain cheeses:
With a regular and well-developed crust .
A smooth and balanced paste.
Fewer defects like drying out or excessive moisture【22†source】.
Optimized performance
Thanks to a homogeneous environment, losses due to refining defects are reduced. This improves the overall production yield .
Compliance with hygiene standards
The textile ducts and the ModulAir are designed to be easy to clean and meet the strict requirements of the food industry. This makes it easier to maintain health standards in the ripening room.
Flexibility and modularity
The ModulAir is modular , which means that it can adapt to the specific needs of each micro-cheese factory. Combined with textile ducts, it offers a scalable and economical solution for producers.
4. A sustainable investment for microcheese factories
Investing in textile ducts and a ModulAir system represents a strategic choice for microcheese factories wishing to improve the quality of their cheeses while optimizing their costs.
Why choose these solutions?
Increased performance thanks to optimal control of parameters.
Simplified maintenance , with easy-to-clean and durable equipment.
