This Chr.Hansen DVS® culture contains defined mesophilic and thermophilic strains and is for continous direct vat set use.
The culture provides fast lactic acid production and high phage robustness without any CO2 production (homofermentative).
The culture is primarily applied in the production of semi-hard, hard and very hard pressed cheeses with a closed texture and a min cooking temperature at 35°C (95°F).
Examples of applications are Cheddar, Cheshire, Colby, Monterey Jack, Munster, Fontal, Raclette & Saint Paulin.
Mesophilic homofermentative culture, type O.
This Chr.Hansen culture range provides phage resistant defined strains for continuous Direct Vat Set (DVS) use.
This culture contains specially selected strains chosen for their phage resistance and ability to produce lactic acid quickly.
This culture does not produce CO2 .
The culture is primarily applied in the production of cheeses with a closed texture, e.g. Cheddar, Feta and Cottage cheese.
The culture can be applied in other fermented dairy products, in combination or not with other lactic cultures.
Thermophilic lactic acid cultures.
This Chr.Hansen culture system provides thermophilic defined strains for continuous Direct Vat Set (DVS®) use by rotation.
The cultures are selected for their moderate lactic acid production and low post-acidification.
The culture is primarily applied in the production of soft cheeses where low post acidification is required, e.g. stabilized soft cheeses (Brie, Crescenza, Argentinean Port Salut) and modern Camembert types.
SSC cultures can be used alone (stabilized cheeses) or in combination with Mesophilic aromatic cultures (LD types).
Mesophilic homofermentative culture, type O.
This Chr.Hansen culture range provides phage resistant defined strains for continuous Direct Vat Set (DVS) use.
This culture contains specially selected strains chosen for their phage resistance and ability to produce lactic acid quickly.
This culture does not produce CO2 .
The culture is primarily applied in the production of cheeses with a closed texture, e.g. Cheddar, Feta and Cottage cheese.
The culture can be applied in other fermented dairy products, in combination or not with other lactic cultures.
This Chr.Hansen DVS® culture contains defined mesophilic strains and is for continous direct vat set use.
The culture provides fast lactic acid production and high phage robustness without any CO2 production (homofermentative).
The DVS® KFP range represents Kosher for Passover approved cultures.
The culture is primarily applied in the production of cheeses with a closed texture, e.g. Cheddar, Feta and Cottage cheese.
The culture can be applied in other fermented dairy products, in combination or not with other lactic cultures.
The culture is Kosher approved for year round use including Passover.
Selected propionic acid bacteria culture.
The culture is primarily used for the production of Swiss-type cheeses, such as Emmental, Gruyère, Greve and similar types where the typical propionic acid aroma and eye formation are desired.
The culture is normally applied in combination with lactic cultures, such as Streptococcus thermophilus , Lactobacillus helveticus , Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp.bulgaricus and LD cultures.
The culture ferments lactate resulting in the formation of propionic and acetic acids and large amounts of carbon dioxide.
Propionic acid cultures grow slowly in milk and have a low proteolytic activity.
