Standardised strength, a dose you can measure accurately at your volume, storage you can meet, documentation you can file, supply you can plan around, and someone who answers the phone when a batch behaves strangely.
The chemistry does not change. Mixing, temperature uniformity, how long cutting takes, documentation and ingredient supply all change — and those are what decide your consistency at volume.
Because dosage is one input and milk is many. Protein, calcium, heat treatment, season and stage of lactation all change how the same dose behaves.
It makes it set faster, which is not the same as better. If your set is weak, something else is usually wrong, and more coagulant just hides it for one batch.
Using ultra-pasteurized milk, or milk that is too cool, and then blaming the coagulant. In most failed-set calls we take, the problem is upstream of the bottle.
