The suspension is diluted in 10 litres of tap water and is then ready for use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe mould is inoculated after the stuffing (and eventually acclimatisation process), either by dipping or spraying or shower. The spore suspension should be stirred continuously to prevent settling of the spores, and the suspension should only be used on day of preparation (danger of yeast contamination).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage and Shelf life:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with other Bactoferm cultures, all freeze dried cultures must be stored \u0026lt; -17°C and will have a shelf life of up to 18 months.
