In a bit of a Kiwi Ingenuity (something we refer to a lot here in NZ) I decided to resolve my mold situation before it came time to press my 1st Gruyere.
So I took a food grade container from my collection, drilled a ton of holes in it, sanded it off, boiled it to sanitize and it was ready just in time to press my cheese.
The size is perfect!!!
I much prefer your pressing schedule compared to others I have seen Alex. I will be running with this rather than the convulted version I was going to follow.
