Wayne's Cheddar: 082209

[FarmerJd]

Sailor, can you direct me toward a brand or type of vac sealer system. Is it just the food saver type or something bigger?

[Sailor Con Queso]

I use a Foodsaver 11". They're all over. Sam's Club, Wal-Mart, E-Bay...

[FarmerJd]

Wayne, you said you were able to seal an 8" cheese I think. What type of vacuum sealer do you have? And I understand the "tinkerer" mentality. Nothing is ever perfect in my mind. always something I want to try to add or fix.

Here is the 8in cheddar that I vacuum sealed.
I have a standard 11" or 12" in foodsaver.

nothing fancy...

Sheesh Wayne, what happened to you while I was gone???
A 24 gallon batch of cheese? Is this some sort of Carter possession that I'm seeing here??
Honestly, I'm quite impressed. While I've been enjoying the sun you've been building your cheese making operation. Damn, now I've got a lot of catching up to do!
Hope all is well with you and I look forward to gleaning information that you've gained.

I don't know where these stores are but I just got an 11 inch Foodsaver in Wisconsin for $69 in a store called Shopko. We don't have them here - sure wish we did!
