Besto Ayran Cultures combine traditional taste with modern industrial standards. They provide a fluid yet full-bodied texture, a homogeneous appearance, and a refreshing aroma profile that enhances drinkability. Our cultures possess high stabilization capabilities, preventing serum separation (whey separation), which is a major technical challenge in drinking yogurt production.
The natural viscosity provided by our cultures prevents phase separation during storage and distribution, maintaining a consistent product structure.
Leaves a refreshing effect on the palate through low acetaldehyde production and balanced lactic acid development.
Prevents over-souring in the cold chain, offering a standardized taste throughout the entire shelf life.
DVS (Direct Vat Set) form allows direct inoculation into milk, ensuring fast and safe fermentation processes.
