Hello. I’m Simon, mid 30s professional in London and I keep an allotment, brew beer, make bacon with hopes of making aged charcuterie - and I’ve recently started attempting to make cheese. A couple of years ago I built a 16m2 ‘log cabin’ at the bottom of my garden for conducting hobbies such as these, and it is now choca-bloc with equipment, wine fridge, homemade temperature controlled caninet and ‘cheese cave’ amongst other things - and occasionally a lawn mower.
I’m excited about a forum to query with all my curd related question. I’m also really interested in discovering like minded people locally. Are these growing hobbies? Why are cheese cultures so expensive and difficult to source in the UK... etc.
