Thanks for that Gurkan.  I made a wheel and I think it is about 25kg.  Its big enough!

Keeping the humidity above 85% shouldn't be a problem - we live on the edge of a rainforest.

Your blog recipe has a small amount of flora danica in it.  How much did you put in?  I was talking to a comte maker from France and he seemed to think it was not necessary since the milk is heated to 54 and it would be killed anyway.  I understand that but since they work with raw milk there would be some naturally occurring mesophiles in there anyway - and Im keen to replicate this as close as possible.  Do you have any thoughts on this?  Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Thanks.

NV.

Wow, 25Kg. Man that is massive.
I guess Linuxboy can answer your question.
