My name is MAI. I have been reading this web for a while and finally decided to join. I used to make a lot of soft cheeses mostly sheep and goat when I lived in the US as a teenager. It was a lot of fun. Now that I am slightly older and I have a few kids, I thought it would be fun to make a variety of cheeses together. We make our own yogurt and a few soft cheeses from time to time.
I think that my biggest problem here in Thailand is to get the temperature low enough. Most recipes and procedures that I see require room temperature, but my room temperature is a little warmer than most European and North American kitchens. Usually around 28+C except for winter nights, it can drop cool then 15C but that is only for 1 month.
I have seen a few products that would help. One is a single stage line voltage thermostat, the other is a dual stage humidistat (usually used for greenhouses). I saw that Leeners and a few other distributors sell them, but here in Thailand we use a different voltage and cycle than US. Does anyone know of a supplier that builds things like this that would be compliant for Thailand electrical system? If it helps we use the same as England and Australia.
Thanks for any advice or suggestions.
