Precision fermentation is, as the name says, pretty precise and, therefore, pretty challenging. It describes the process of making a specific molecule — for example, a particular milk protein — using microorganisms (like yeast, fungi, and algae) instead of macroorganisms (like cows, goats, and camels — yes, camel milk is a thing). 

So, how do we do this? We identify the cow genes responsible for making milk and use genetic engineering to teach microorganisms to produce milk protein. So imagine, instead of producing alcohol, a yeast culture would produce milk protein. 

This methodology has been used for over 50 years already, and if you like cheese as much as we do, it’s nothing new to you. Animal rennet, the substance that turns milk into classic cheese, is made using precision fermentation. The ‘old-school’ way of making rennet would be to get it from baby calves’ stomachs — meh, that’s so 1950s.
