So I tried my hand at Jeff's Munster make.
Fail.
Literally no floc. As I write this I'm over an hour without even a hint of curd formation. Using a single strength calf rennet, and the Excel tool, I added 1.8ml of rennet initially. By minute 35, I added an additional 1.0ml solution, thinking not enough rennet.
Nada.
With no curd at min 50, I added another 2.0ml rennet solution. Thinking it's pretty much a bust at this point, I figured why not.
So at 1hr and 4 minutes, I see heating the milk to 175F and making a simple acid coagulated fresh cheese.
(Sigh)
