Frequently asked questions
What exactly is glycerin's role in a ganache or mousse?
It acts as an emulsifier by helping bind and stabilize mixtures that tend to separate, resulting in a more homogeneous texture.
Can it be used in sorbets without another antifreeze agent?
Yes, when dosed at 5 to 10 g/kg, it lowers the freezing point and limits crystal formation for a smooth texture.
Is the 1.3 kg format sufficient for regular use in a laboratory?
It is suitable for occasional use or small volumes. For regular production, the 6 kg format is more economical.
