LHTB - starter culture for cheese (for 1000 l of milk)

LHTB – a culture for ripened cheeses

The choice of culture matters throughout cheese production and ripening. LHTB by Micromilk is a blend for ripened-cheese technologies where both fermentation and gradual development of the finished product character are important.

The role of the culture in production

For semi-hard and hard cheeses with medium or long ripening, where the curd is heated above 43°C. LHTB is used where flavour development during ripening and a greater pH decrease during processing are desired. Aroma production is rated at three stars.

In ripened cheeses, culture activity combines with proper curd processing, whey drainage, moulding, salting and ripening. Match the timing of each stage to the recipe. The starter does not produce gas.

• Gas production: none
• Aroma production: ★★★
