Frequently Asked Questions

How does pH affect the gelling of this product?
Nappage Pectin X58 requires a pH above 4 for proper gelling to occur. If the pH is too low, it may interfere with the product's ability to gel properly.
Is Nappage Pectin X58 heat resistant?
No, this product is not heat resistant. However, it is thermo-reversible between 40°C and 60°C, which means that it can melt and re-gel if reheated to that temperature.
How should I dose Nappage Pectin X58 for different applications?
For gelling glazes (nappage), the recommended dosage is 1.3-1.5%. For creams and creams, the dosage is 1-1.3%, according to the desired texture.
Is it freezable once gelled?
Yes, preparations with Nappage Pectin X58 can be frozen without affecting the stability or texture of the gel, which makes it an ideal choice for preparations that require prolonged storage.
