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.

- What is the shelf life of these cultures in the freezer? Is there a possibility of cross contamination if more than one culture is kept in the same freezer? If so, how can we prevent this from happening? Thank you!
- The powdered culture should last 12 months in the freezer. The culture should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge which would eliminate the risk of cross contamination.
