What is a Direct-Set culture? Direct-Set cultures are a one-time-use culture, they cannot be recultured (i.e. perpetuated beyond the single batch). Direct-Set cultures are often preferred by cheese makers as they require no maintenance or care. Simply keep the packet in the freezer and remove the portion for your recipe when it's time to make cheese. Most Direct-Set cultures contain multiple doses to inoculate multiple batches.
Please note, this particular product contains both starter culture and rennet in each packet.
Questions on Fromage Blanc Starter Culture

- From Jennie at 4/14/11 6:25 PM
- The directions say to use pasteurized milk, but is it ok to use raw? Does that change the texture?
- Hi Jennie,
Raw milk has live cultures in it that may compete with the starter culture. You can pasteurize your raw milk to use for this cheese if you wish.
Hope that helps,
Erin

- Is it possible to use this starter for less than a gallon of milk? I was thinking I would like to culture a half gallon of milk. ~Thanks!
- You can use the package to culture a half-gallon of milk, but it will set fast so you'll want to keep a close eye on it.
