Making Cheese: Halloumi

Completely didn't see your post sorry. Awesome work on the halloumi :)

You could try making some mozzarella? It has some similarities to halloumi but is a little more involved. I imagine home-made would be good though.
 
Paneer and mozzarella are supposed to be easy to make. I've still not had a crack at cheese making.
 
Now stop me if I'm being a complete retard, but for some reason I really want to make paneer and put the curds/whey mix through an Aeropress - will instantly formed cheese pop out of the bottom in a nicely formed block? :p

:D Ok so just put some Greek yogurt through for the lolz, turns out you end up with a very creamy tubular block, drizzled some honey on top and made quite a nice dessert, haha :p

Lol. That's pretty awesome though yeah, I think what you are suggesting will kind of work but you'll need to very slowly increase the pressure (*very* slowly - like over the course of hours). Though that would to make a hard cheese so perhaps you can speed it up a little for something softer...
