I'll be putting up a 16 quart Parmesan next week, which takes a pretty good sized mold. I'm putting it into an 8" diameter, 6" high mold and the SturdyPress will handle that just fine as well. Parmesan seems to really age better in larger wheels. When I was a kid, we did 12"x8" wheels for Parmesan and aged them for 18 months.

Hi
I realize this is an old post, but I'm very curious to find out how the parmesan did in the 8" tomme with the 4 gallons? I'm wanting to make parm as well but I'm concerned at the final size of the wheel.
Any info/update would be great!!!
Thanks
