Farmhouse Cheddar - Crumbly & Dry @ 5 Weeks
« on: January 22, 2012, 06:00:23 PM »
i've used the recipe from wind dance vineyard for cheddar cheese.  i use raw cow's milk, unpasturized.  the cheese is pretty good for a newbie, but looks and tastes a bit dry.  will still slice, but somewhat crumbly.  any ideas why?  thanks.

We need make notes to analyze.  Floc time, curd cut size, and acidity all can play a part in dryness, just to name a few things.
