Hello everyone!!

I have fallen in love with my 450gm Kadovas I bought from Ullmer's and am now wanting to get a couple 1kg sized molds. Any recommendations on where to buy? (and what prices to expect?)
Any info appreciated!  ;)
Thanks!
~Cheers

Hi scubagirl, I see from your profile that you are in Washington State! I grew up in Vancouver BC and used to know Washington well, used to go camping at Mount Baker & Whidby Island State Parks lots as a kid.

From the US I hear that the best prices are from Glengarry US, but Euro has dropped a bunch lately so The Cheese Mould Shop in NL may be lower, even with taxes and shipping, plus they stock parts.

Good luck, I have two of the Gouda shaped 1.5-2 kg sizes (as does DeejayDebi) which are great, I can just stuff 9 US gallons of whole milk curds into them ;D, thus reason I bought a 10 US gallon stock pot.

Thanks John!

I was thinking Glengarry was going to be my best bet, but thought I better ask those in the know!
Yep, I'm from Washington, and we are having beautiful weather today!!!! I have never been to Vancouver, but have been to Victoria a few times and loved it, I'll have to make an effort to get to Vancouver some time! I have only been in Wa State for 5 years, so I am still learning all the fun areas to visit, I grew up in Idaho so know all the good camping/hiking areas like the back of my hand...I may have to take my family camping on Whidbey since you mentioned it! Any park in particular you'd recommend?
~Cheers!

Maybe we should do a bulk co-op buy while the euro is low? I could use a few more 4 kg molds.

[edit] If we do that, shipping wouldn't be as bad because we could just do one 1-2 pallets (LTC) direct to a nearby port or port + train, and then ship UPS/Fedex/USPS.

i might be convinced to go in on a couple....

K, let me contact them. Should be cheaper buying direct from the manufacturer. I'll let you know. We'll avoid VAT this way, too, but if I'm ordering, anyone in WA state will have to pay the sales tax.

Cool idea guys! I'd be interested in a 1-1.5kg...let me know what you find out!

I am not sure that I have the $, but I certainly would like to know what the cost would be, I would love one or two 2kg Kadovas.

I'm intertested in 3 of the 2K Kadovas and 2 of the 4K.

Depending on the price I would be interested.

I have been thinking about getting a few and might be interested

I might be interested also. Let me know about prices when you get some figures.

Count me in...

I like the perforated stainless steel I got from Ulmer's, but the finished product doesn't look as nice as what the Kadovas can do...
