Handling Directions
Recommendation for dispersion and solubilisation
A proper solubilisation of Rousselot® gelatines is critical for reaching the complete development of their functionalities. There are four main dissolution methods, allowing the preparation of up to 40% gelatine solution:
Conventional method | Rousselot® gelatine is first swelled in cold water (30 minutes to 1 hour) and then dissolved by heating in a water bath |
High speed method | Rousselot® gelatine is directly dispersed in hot water (80-90°C) with appropriate high-speed stirring. Once dispersed, it will dissolve under slow agitation (5 to 10 minutes) |
Intermediate method | Rousselot® gelatine is swelled in cold water (30 minutes to 1 hour) and then dissolves by addition to hot ingredients |
Dissolution of mixes | For fine particle size, Rousselot® gelatine is mixed to other dry ingredient before dissolution |
Preserve viscosity and gelatine characteristics
While gelatine is very stable in its gel form, various factors such as pH, temperature or bacterial environment may cause an hydrolysis of the protein chain yielding a decrease in viscosity and Bloom. It is thus very important to protect the solution against elevated temperature and at extreme pH for extended periods of time.
