Perfect for home and professional charcuterie enthusiasts seeking reliable, authentic results. ## Description Due to the limited shelf life outside of a freezer, we cannot ship this item outside of North America. Place Bactoferm into the freezer immediately upon delivery. Commonly used for slow/mild acidification. Perfect salami culture for southern European styles of sausage. Enhances the aromatic flavor and appearance of fermented and/or dried sausage. Also assists in the breaking down of Nitrate into Nitrite for more efficient curing. If using T-SPX for traditional method of drying (without fermentation) this culture will not provide food safety through lowering pH level, so a longer drying period is encouraged. Use for products needing at least one month's time for drying. Net Weight: 25g (per packet) Usage: 25g for 200kg (440 lbs.) Instructions for making 10 lb. increments included. Freeze Dried Culture. Storage: In Freezer (<2°F) For Food Use Only. Not Intended for Medicinal Purposes.

I also appreciate that it comes well packaged and clearly labeled, making storage and usage straightforward. Even though a small packet treats a large amount of meat, it keeps well in the freezer for future batches. Overall, this is an excellent product for anyone interested in charcuterie. It delivers dependable results and is a must-have for safe and flavorful home curing. Highly recommended!

Just make sure it is well sealed. I'm still curing with it successfully, with no reduction in effectiveness. Outside the freezer, I don't know, but I'd wager it will last a lot longer than Hansen says. Look at some dried probiotics that can last months at room temp, and contain the same two strains of bacteria. **Q: Is this shipped with cold packs?** A: no **Q: I see several cultures listed ... is there a description listing the optimal uses for each strain ?** A: Not that I know of; best to check answers as such in Charcuterie instruction books and recipes. **Q: How long does it last in the freezer? can you verify it's still alive?** A: In the freezer it has maintained its viability for 9 years, even after opening. Just make sure it is well sealed up when done with it. I'm still curing with it successfully, with no noticeable reduction in effectiveness. I know they say use within 6 mo, but I am just sharing my experience, and I have used it dozens of times in the last 9 years since I got it from Butcher Packer with no problems with fermentation. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable culture for traditional dry-cured sausages *by M***A on September 2, 2025* I purchased Bactoferm T-SPX for making dry-cured sausages at home, and it worked exactly as expected.
