MM 100 Mesophilic Starter Culture
Description
MM 100 Mesophilic starter culture can be used to make a variety of semi ripened and fresh cheese including Brie, Camembert, Gouda, Edam, Blue, Feta, Havarti and Chevre.
This culture will create a nicely pronounced buttery like flavor and a somewhat more open texture. It contains the same two primary cultures found in MA011 with the addition of diacetylactis, which produces the CO2 and buttery like flavor/aroma.
Because of the added C02, cheese made with this culture will be somewhat more open in texture. In a cheese such as Gouda or Edam, this can provide the typical small round holes.

Reduce culture amount by 25-50% when using raw milk.

Excited
I am so excited to give this a try! I have loved everything else I have gotten from this company!


Great stuff
this is wonderful for making cheese. glad that i found the best cultures for it.

Mona Cheese
To make this wonder looking cheese, one must first make cheese. I chose Gouda as the base which is suggested to make with the mm100. The pretty color comes from saffron and the offset taste is dill. I named it Mona because of a rice dish she makes with the same combo of spices.
