It is odorless, tasteless and compatible with acidic ingredients, making it ideal for food, cosmetic and biotechnology applications. In addition, it has a gel strength of 600 g/cm2 and a solubility at 80°C greater than 90%.
Standard agar must be boiled for a few minutes to be fully activated.
SP500 pre-activated agar, unlike conventional agar, dissolves quickly as early as 80°C without cooking or heating to boiling temperatures.
Also, imagine creating a yogurt mix that already includes milk enzymes and stabilizers such as starch and pectin, as well as SP500 preactivated agar. This combination offers unparalleled convenience and consistent results, making the preparation of your homemade yogurt easier than ever.

Where it comes from:
Agar Agar, also known as "seaweed jelly," is a natural gelling agent extracted from seaweed.
Agar Agar is a polysaccharide extracted from certain species of red algae, including the Gelidium, Gracilaria, and Pterocladia varieties. It is used as a thickener and gelling agent in many food products.
Agar Agar is extracted from algae through a process of boiling in water. After boiling, Agar Agar is filtered, refined and dehydrated. Dehydrated Agar Agar is then sold in powder or flake form.
Agar Agar is widely used in the food industry for various products such as ice cream, jams, creams, sauces, baked goods and other food products.
It is processed and packaged in Italy.
🍹 Recipes and suggestions:
Experiment with unique recipes by thickening liquids with Agar Agar. Create vegan jellies, sauces and toppings. Unleash your creativity in the kitchen!
This powder is PH-sensitive and reacts to acidic liquids such as lemon juice. In case you need to add lemon juice or citric acid, it is recommended to add it only after it reaches 70°C during cooling.
