A: Freeze In the  middle of ice , itll be fine

**Q: How much time it takes to start showing the mold and what would be optimal temp/humidity?**
A: Mine showed mold within 36 hours, Temps in the upper 70's f.

**Q: Im a novice sausage maker. Whats the difference between the different cultures they have for sale?**
A: Sorry, I don't know the differences between their cultures as I don't use a culture in my Soprossatta but I do use the Bactoferm 600. It DOES NOT go in your meat mixture before stuffing. You mix it in water and spray/spritz it on your sausage after stuffing and after you hang them. Hope this helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked like before!
*by M***T on September 14, 2025*

Works as it should, use it on curing charcuterie in my chamber. Used it years ago and had it in the chamber until I cleaned and sanitized it for this round.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Mold!
*by J***L on November 7, 2024*

This product always works and always keeps the other molds away! Great to enrobe your salumi. Excellent customer service, too! Told them the product was lost in the mail and they overnighted me a new one!!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked well for me to inoculate, and to spray as a protective measure
*by J***Y on December 8, 2023*

I was worried about this product given a few reviews that claimed it did nothing. Mine worked as expected. I used it as an initial spray in a wine cooler converted to a curing chamber, and I've used it sprayed directly on meats when hanging. Both took well. I even dripped some of the solution on the ground near my chamber when spraying, and that showed signs of life after a day or two. I think some people might expect faster results, or mold coverage like you'd see on old food, or development like a thick cover on Brie. I certainly did not get that. I got a thin layer of mold where things molded. It took several days, and maintained a consistent culture for weeks. If there was no mold development, then neither this nor wild mold were present. I suspect if I created the conditions for mold development, then I'd see an explosion of mold, but that isn't what I'm looking for.
