Mad Millie Cheese Culture (x5) helps create soft & hard cheeses at home. 

This mesophilic culture thrives at moderate temperatures, making it ideal for a wide range of cheese styles that don’t require high heat. Each sachet contains a carefully balanced, freeze-dried blend of Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris and Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis—lactic acid bacteria essential for developing flavour, texture, and aroma. The result is consistent acidification and beautifully crafted cheese every time.

Whether you're making a creamy brie or camembert, a bold blue, or classics like cheddar, gouda, and mozzarella, this culture gives you the foundation for success.

Why you’ll love it:

  • Mesophilic culture ideal for a wide range of cheeses
  • Suitable for soft cheeses (brie, camembert, blue) and hard cheeses (cheddar, gouda, mozzarella)
  • Develops balanced flavour, texture, and aroma
  • Reliable and consistent fermentation
  • Beginner-friendly with easy, repeatable results

How to use:
Simply sprinkle the culture into warmed milk before adding rennet. It kickstarts fermentation, producing lactic acid that helps milk coagulate and develop that signature cheese character.

The details:

  • 5 sachets per pack
  • Each sachet cultures up to 4L of milk
  • Contains: Milk/Dairy

Storage:

  • Store below 25°C (short term)
  • For best results, store in the freezer to extend shelf life up to 24 months

From your first batch to your finest creation, this culture makes it easy to explore the world of artisan cheesemaking with confidence.

Start it right. Craft it well. Enjoy every bite.
