Brew Plate™ Blk Sleeve - Funkadelic Quad Plate - WLN, HLP, LMDA, and LCSM

Funkadelic Quad-Plate

If you are interested in detecting wild yeasts and bacteria found in your funky brew, then these plates are for you. These plates were designed to help characterize sours, farmhouse ales, and non-Saccharomyces cerevisiae pitched beers that have that Funkadelic taste you want to make.

Quadrant 1:
Wallerstein Nutrient Media (WLN) is nonselective and detects all wild yeast, pitching yeast and some bacterial strains that are common brew.

Quadrant 2:
Lee’s Multi-Differential Agar (LMDA) detects lactic acid producing bacteria including Lactobacillus and Acetobacter species. Acid producers are easily detected by a change in the media color from green to yellow.

Quadrant 3:
Hsu’s Lactobacillus/Pediococcus Agar (HLP) detects Lactobacillus and Pediococcus bacteria. For optimal growth, an anaerobic gas generator sachet should be used during incubation.

Quadrant 4:
Lin’s Cupric Sulfate Media (LCSM) detects non-Saccharomyces wild yeast and inhibits the growth of brewer’s yeast.

With a purchase of a Test Kit or Bulk Sleeve item, you receive a FREE DNA sequence I.D.
