Cheddar making with The_blue!

Wyrdo · 22 Mar 2010 at 18:10

Very cool, not something I'd ever do as I lack the patience but I do like to eat cheese!

From a non cheese lover that is exquisite work right there.

Nice.

I think if something took me weeks to make then the months of sitting in the fridge, I would probably want to frame it and put it on the wall and not eat it

Not weeks. After the 1st steps it's all easy quick things.

Really impressive stuff. I do approve whole heartedly!

PGdude · 23 Mar 2010 at 00:15

Do we all get samples posted to us?

The_blue · 23 Mar 2010 at 06:31

Hmmm... nope!

But if you live close enough i'll give you a taste!

I thought of this thread the other day when I was waiting for an op (cheese dream in the literal sense?) was perusing the Sundried Tomato thread again as well (nom)

Missed this thread. Very interesting OP, thank you for sharing.

Was hunting for a cheese making thread!
Are there any cheeses which can be matured a bit quicker? I'm mainly interested in making blue cheeses and don't have the patience to wait months.
Also, where would be the best place to get the materials? Equipment/ingredients?

I brew my own booze, and save a few bottles of each batch and have had some ageing for a few years now. I like the idea of having a 'vintage' night with my own beer and cheese.

What can this forum NOT do?

Sp00n · 25 Jan 2011 at 12:06

Very cool, but seems like a lot of effort for something which is probably higher quality and cheaper from the local grocery store/food market.

Oohhh... old thread.

Put a man on the moon, well not yet.

resurrecting thread.
Does a fridge work, does it not dry it out/to cold?

what is the perfect temperature/humidity for ageing?

Also thinking is there some slow cooker or other contraption that you can set temperature on precisely for each process.

Never saw this thread originally, good god I bet that is some tasty cheese!
