| [[Escarpment Laboratories]] || Lactobacillus Blend || ''L. brevis'' and ''L. plantarum'' || Heterofermentative || || This blend is designed to be usable at a wide range of temperatures, and is especially suited for kettle souring/Wort Souring. We recommend pre-acidifying wort to 4.5 with lactic acid, then pitching the Lactobacillus blend in a CO2-purged kettle or fermentor at 32-42°C.

| [[Escarpment Laboratories]] || Lactobacillus Blend 2.0 || ''L. rhamnosus'' and ''L. plantarum'' || Heterofermentative || || This blend is a product of our ongoing research into optimizing Lactobacillus strain selection. It is a blend of our main L. plantarum strain with a strain of Lactobacillus rhamnosus. This blend has a wide temperature range ( 30ºC to 45ºC) and enhances fruit flavours in the finished beer, with tasters noting red fruit and guava aromas. It is intended for kettle/quick souring but can also be used in 0 IBU wort.

| [[Escarpment Laboratories]] || Lactobacillus brevis || ''L. brevis'' || Heterofermentative || || This strain is moderately hop-tolerant, and as such it can also be used for long-term souring of <10IBU beers. It also performs well in kettle souring/wort souring where fast and clean lactic acidity is desired. We recommend pre-acidifying wort to 4.5 with lactic acid, then pitching the Lactobacillus blend in a CO2-purged kettle or fermentor at 35-45°C.
