Cheese Making Mesophilic Starter Culture MM 100-101 125D

The Cheese Making Mesophilic Starter Culture MM 100-101 125D is a essential element in the cheese making process. This culture is used to produce a wide variety of soft and semi-soft cheeses, including cheddar, gouda, havarti, and colby. It contains a blend of mesophilic lactic acid bacteria, which are responsible for producing the characteristic flavors and textures of these types of cheeses.

The MM 100-101 125D starter culture is a freeze-dried, direct-set culture, meaning that it can be added directly to the milk without requiring any rehydration or preparation. This makes it incredibly convenient and easy to use, especially for home cheese makers. Simply sprinkle the culture onto the surface of the milk and stir it in thoroughly to ensure even distribution.

Once added to the milk, the lactic acid bacteria in the starter culture begin to multiply and convert lactose (milk sugar) into lactic acid. This process lowers the pH of the milk, which in turn causes the milk proteins to coagulate and form a curd. The bacteria also produce flavor compounds that contribute to the characteristic taste of the finished cheese.

The MM 100-101 125D culture is suitable for use with both cow's milk and goat's milk, making it a versatile option for cheese makers who work with different types of milk. It can be used in conjunction with rennet to coagulate the milk and form a curd, and it is typically added at the same time as the rennet.

It's important to store the MM 100-101 125D culture in the freezer to maintain its viability and keep it fresh for as long as possible. When stored properly, it can remain viable for up to a year, making it a cost-effective option for home cheese makers who may not use it as frequently as commercial cheese producers.

Overall, the MM 100-101 125D Mesophilic Starter Culture is an essential tool for anyone interested in making their own cheese at home. Its convenience, reliability, and versatility make it a popular choice among cheese makers of all levels of experience. With this culture, anyone can enjoy the process of crafting delicious, high-quality cheeses in their own kitchen.
