Cultures
What are all the cultures included in this starter?
Meso II starter
I use this starter to make Gouda, primarily and it gives the cheese a wonderful flavor! I make 2 pounds at a time and the last one I opened didn't last a week.
Great Tasting Farmhouse Cheese Curds
I use Mesophilic Type II culture for richness of flavor and smooth texture with my fresh, raw goat milk. Produces a good squeak, warm or cold that stays about three weeks at our house. Squeak may last longer but due to lack of self control we may never find out.
Nice to have in bulk
I bought this becuase I wanted access to a large supply as I make cheese frequently. Worked wonderfully and stores in the freezer until next time. Gave four stars only because package is not resealable. (I fold over and put in ziploc bag)
My preferred cheddar culture
This is my usual and most cost effective for me. I make so much cheese that this is necessary as opposed to the small packets. Produces a nice cheddar.
