Hi!
I used a mix of what I read on the boards, Ricki's recipe, and the cheeseforum.com recipe- 1 gallon raw cows milk up to 90 degrees, added 1/2 packet mesophilic starter, 1/4 t flora danica, & 1/32 t pencillium candidum- let stand for 90 minutes; added 1/8 tablet veg rennet diluted in 1/4 c spring water; stood for 1.5 hours before it set; cut and stirred for 15 minutes; stood for 15 minutes; drained whey off to curd level; ladled into 2 molds on mats on boards; flipped about once an hour for 6 hours; removed from mold & salted; let stand for 15 minutes; added to fridge (currently at 85% humidity and 50 degrees).
Again, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed, and I'll probably order the geotrichum candidum and maybe liquid rennet (to make measuring easier) for next weekend. Here is what it looked like headed for the fridge.
