Lactic Chevre, culturing in the fridge for longer times
« on: November 04, 2012, 12:13:15 PM »
If, due to time constraints, during a lactic bloomy rind make, I were to heat my goat's milk to the proper temp, add the cultures, and then pop it into the fridge, for, say, 36 hours, rather than 18-24 hours, would it still develop properly at the cooler temp, given the additional time? Or would the colder temp just bring the culturing to a screeching halt? Alternately, what is the *max* recommended time for culturing at room temp, is 30 hours way too long?

thx!
