Anyone have experience with this probiotic? Seems pretty popular on Milk The Funk. I had pretty good success kettle souring with Wyeast 5335, although it faded pretty quick - thought I'd change it up this time. The Wyeast had no krausen as I would expect from a pure Lacto. This Swanson had a krausen of sorts after day 1 at 100F, and it also smelled kind of like beans or maybe sauerkraut - not too appealing. Unfortunately I followed someone's raw ale procedure and pasteurized at 190F for 10 min instead of boiling like I did on the last batch. My current thoughts are either a wild yeast took hold or maybe it was DMS? After souring for 2 days, I boiled and the aroma smoothed out.

Justin, bring some to one of the next meetings. I’d love to try it
