Ohio, there and back...
« on: December 01, 2010, 06:00:53 AM »
Hello,
I am a new cheese maker from Columbus, Ohio.  I've worked a gourmet cheese shop for about 5yrs, needless to say i love cheese.  Not just eating it but the science behind creating on of the worlds greatest master pieces.
So, in work at the cheese shop, I always been interested in making cheeses myself.   problem, most cheeses in Ohio are hard cheese, swiss, gouda, cheddar, and etc...   and not the good stuff... i am talking the processed type... luck there are a few artisanal cheese makers... but they are focusing on chevre and cheddar...  I am into the soft ripened cheese and washed rind, brie, camembert, saint marcelin... and so on. 
I have been successful in making both raw cow and goat's milk camembert...
I really watch to make triple creams and saint marcellin but I have been unsuccessful and not sure I am going in the right direction.  So, I am hoping that this forum will be a great resource. 
Thanks...
