HLP allows fast and simple testing for the most common beer spoiling bacteria. While differentiation and selective counting of Lactobacillus and Pediococcus can be performed after 5 days of incubation, many lactic acid bacteria can be detected in as little as 48 hours.  This medium presents several advantages over others: autoclaving is not required prior to utilization; anaerobic incubation is not required when using screw-cap tubes; minimal lab equipment and lab experience required.
