unclevlad Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 11 hours ago, Cygnia said: Oh no! Beware: A cheese crisis looms That's what you risk when you go uniform...it's putting all the eggs in one basket, and sometimes it's hard to keep an eye on the basket. Similar stories...entire, massive fields being planted with one highly tailored strain of wheat, corn, or the like...year after year. That invites pests or infections that *love* that strain. In beer...I remember a story about Duvel, a Belgian strong golden ale. Lovely stuff. Dangerous as all heck, cuz it's fairly strong at 8.5%, but it drinks so, so, so easily. Yes, well, I remember reading that Duvel enthusiasts were going...wait, this isn't tasting right. And the brewery agreed, they were going...hmm, what changed? Brews like Duvel, or any of the Trappist ales or some French farmhouse ales...what develops is a unique ecology of fungi, yeasts, molds, and the like, all of which can impact the flavor. The particular mix is *mostly* stable, as conditions are mostly stable. This allows each element to camp in its own little niche. Well, something happened, and there was considerable effort made to identify what changed. IIRC, they did. The alarm presented in the article is, to me, very much like overusing the tailored seed. Heck, even from the story...what they were doing was killing the variation anyway. So, fine...maybe P. camemberti rides off into the sunset. So what? Use a different one. Use MORE than one, so maybe not every Camembert producer does the same thing. If anything, this really sounds like a very important, USEFUL reset. It's not a call of alarm, it's a call to awaken.
