Abstract

The present invention relates to a microbial composition having fermentation solids embedded in a matrix forming an evaporated suspension, characterized by the features of having: a non-hygroscopic matrix and fermentation solids at a ratio of at least 1:1 by weight; wherein the matrix has a moisture-regulating binder and a detackifier at a ratio of between 1:5 and 5:1 by weight and, optionally, not more than 75% by weight protective stabilizer; wherein the evaporated suspension has a water content of at least 1% and at most 30% water by weight when stored at a relative humidity of 50% and a temperature of 20° C. The present invention also relates to granules and methods for preparing a composition having fermentation solids embedded in a matrix to form an evaporated suspension.
