List: Thailand sourced cheesemaking supplies

[mikekchar]

I'm surprised (maybe I shouldn't be) that Meiji is in Thailand.  It's Japanese brand.  At least in Japan, there is no Meiji milk that I know of that isn't UHT, so definitely not good for cheese making.  In Japan, I've been looking at smaller producers and found some quite good milk, but it is really expensive.  Possibly similar in Thailand.  Although I don't live there, I'm interested to hear your results!

There are definitely pasteurized brands of Meijii in Thailand.

It produced very weak curds and yield was poor during the cheese making seminar. I am going to try again now i have had some success at home just to see if i get the same results.

There is some question about the temperature that milk in Thailand is oasteurized at. I have seen some conference papers that indicate it may be as 76C and others that indicate 72C. I understand it to be 68C in Canada.
