Thanks you _____________. Fill in your own profanity.
The presses are expensive but the parts are not cheap, it you don't mind used I can sell one cheaper if I can find a cheaper cylinder on ebay, but it may take a few weeks.
I've used thecheesemaker.com before. He ships super quick and gives his cell number on his home page so you can call and get answers ASAP. The problem is he's not super articulate. The packages you get from him have different measurement than his website and when you call him he's not sure what's correct. Nice guy I just don't like the inconsistency. I now have a commercial account at Dairy Connection and have just bought a hundred or so worth of stuff. We'll see how their service is. When I called with a question the guy looked up the answer and said he was new and wasn't positive and had the owner give me a call when he was off the phone. He called back shortly and had answer from his notes and went over the calculations, very nice, knowledgeable and helpful. I also like their shipping policies, they make you get 2nd Day Air from Fedex, which is expensive, but they also say they don't ship past Wednesday or so, so the cultures are not sitting in a hot container over the weekend. It's expensive but it shows they care and they understand.
I love getting my order of Margaux, Margaux wondering if it's been in a hot container for a month..warms the coc{[k]lesof my heart. Had to abreviate the 'K' cause it changed it when I posted even though it wasn't a swear word.
