Ellen's Feta #6
« on: October 19, 2014, 07:33:55 PM »
I'm back making cheese....more feta! 

1 gal cream-line whole milk (Kaluna)
1/8 t Feta A culture (Choosit)
1/8 t Goat Lipase (Mad Millie)
1/4 t CaCl2 solution (The Cheesemaker)
1/16 t Dried Calf rennet (The Cheesemaker)

Flocculation was at 16 minutes, not that much different than the last time I made feta.

Now while it's forming curd I'm looking for my long lost notebook...

No totally forgot to take pictures.  And had to re-learn some things I already know...like how to "flip" the baskets of cheese....anyway curd is cut and soaking in brine.  Can't wait to taste it next week :D

Nothing wrong with relearning things - you get to fill in the gaps  8).
Me as well, I just forgot to adjust the rennet for the lipase - Ahhh longer set times.  Oh well, it will still work.
