| [[Bootleg Biology]] || Sour Weapon L || ''Lactiplantibacillus plantarum'' (blended strains) || Facultatively heterofermentative || || Drops the pH of wort quickly. At 98F, trial batches dropped the pH of wort to 3.0 after just 24 hours. When pitched at 84F, pH should reach 3.5 in 24 hours. Ideal to use for acidifying wort for quick/kettle sours, and is also very effective when co-pitched with a yeast strain. As with any Lactobacillus culture, we do not recommend using in worts with <s>10 or more IBUs</s> any hops (this is the up to date recommendation from Jeff Mello of Bootleg Biology; any amount of hops will inhibit ''L. plantarum'' in general) <ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/MilkTheFunk/permalink/2800217156673147/?comment_id=2800400083321521&reply_comment_id=2804474432914086&comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22R%22%7D Jeff Mello.
