I used the recipe for goat brie in "200 Easy Homemade Cheeses".
2 gal. milk, pinch PC. I didn't put in any Geo 15 (that was used in the crottin which shared the fridge).
It drained 48 hours in the molds, flipping twice. 10 hours or so out of the molds before going in the ripening boxes.
I salted them with a scant 1/4 t. per side.
I noticed that the first day or two in the ripening box, I need to check it 2-3 times a day as I did have too much whey in the bottom checking once a day. I have noted that and will change for future cheese.
The temp is 50 degrees.
After 2 days in the boxes, there was no whey on the bottom. I closed the lids and have been wiping the inside of the box lid, patting and flipping daily.
So far, the cheese do not smell like ammonia. Can they be saved?
I thought I had followed my notes well and that batch turned out perfectly. Learning is a process!
Thanks so much!
