Gluconolactat - Calcium Source for Reverse Spherification - 500g - Sosa
Available format: 500 g tub.
Sosa Gluconolactat is a blend of two calcium salts — calcium lactate (E327) and calcium gluconate (E578) — that allows you to incorporate calcium into any liquid without altering its flavour. Essential in reverse spherification for preparations naturally low in calcium.
- Use: Calcium source for reverse spherification.
- Dosage: 20 g/kg.
- Applications: Reverse spherification — all liquids low in calcium.
- Dietary: Vegan · Vegetarian · Non-GMO · Kosher Certified · Halal Certified.
♥ Expert tip: Gluconolactat always works in combination with Alginate — incorporate Gluconolactat into your preparation, then dose it into the Alginate bath (still mineral water, calcium-free). If your preparation lacks density, add a small amount of Xanthan to help the spheres hold their shape.

Description
expand_moreThe flavour-free calcium source for reverse spherification
Sosa Gluconolactat is a blend of two calcium acidity regulators: calcium lactate (E327) and calcium gluconate (E578). This two-salt blend enriches any liquid low in calcium, enabling it to react with Alginate and be spherified — without adding any flavour to the preparation. It is the essential companion to Alginate in reverse spherification.
How to use
Incorporate Gluconolactat directly into the preparation under vigorous agitation. Then dose the preparation into the Alginate bath (prepared with still mineral water, calcium-free) and allow the spheres to form for 3 minutes. Collect, rinse in clean water and serve.
Tip: If the preparation is too liquid and the spheres struggle to hold their shape, add a small amount of Xanthan to provide the necessary density.
