Standing Stone Farms Mesophilic Cheese Culture is a premium Italian-made powder designed to ferment 6 to 18 gallons of milk, producing soft and fresh cheeses with a distinctive buttery flavor and open texture. Perfect for crafting artisan favorites like Cream Cheese, Chevre, Feta, and Gouda, this culture contains key Lactococcus strains that ensure authentic European-style cheese with signature aroma and texture.

## Description

This is the mesophilic culture to use for a more pronounced butter like flavor and a somewhat more open texture For use in soft ripened, and fresh cheeses such as: Chevre, Cream Cheese, Brie, Camembert, Gouda, Edam, Blue, Feta, and Havarti. This culture contains the 2 primary cultures of MA011 but the diacetylactis will produce CO2 and a butter like flavor/aroma. Cheese made with this culture will be somewhat more open in texture and in a cheese such as gouda will provide the desired, small round holes. Contains: (LL) Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis (LLC) Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris (LLD) Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar diacetylactis
