Title: Hi from Michigan
Post by: AJ Peacock on October 21, 2013, 02:06:46 PM

Hi all,

Haven't made any cheese yet (tons of yogurt though), but have fond memories from my childhood, my family made/sold cheese (and wine/shine) during the depression.  Unfortunately, much of that knowledge has been lost to the ages.   My grandmother lived across the road from a goat dairy/cheese farm, so I always had fresh cheeses when I visited there as a child, oh the memories!

Anyway, I've been reading about cheese making for the last couple months.  I've found a supply of raw milk and have a small refrigerator that I'm setting up for my 'cheese cave'  ;) in the basement.

Just wanted to say hi and thank everyone in advance for the great forum.

AJ

Hello AJ,

Welcome on board, I'm confident you'll love it here as everyone is so helpful and every question gets helpful answers.

I'm trying to spread the word about how rewarding making your own cheese can be, and have a produced a free eBook to help you get started. You can download it for free at HomemadeCheese.org (http://www.homemadecheese.org), if you do, I hope you find it useful.

Have fun in your cheese making adventure,

Jack.
