white belt in cheese making

[drjillian]

Hello All 

I am a dentist in Cleveland, OH and am a complete cheese newbie. I am very interested in the self sufficient arts; beer brewing, gardening, smoking meats, soap making, cheese making, etc.

I look forward to expanding my cheese making abilities through this excellent resource!

Currently I have successfully made whey ricotta and unsuccessfully attempted cream cheese. The adventure continues as I will be attempting cream cheese again tomorrow. We'll see how it goes

Hi Wayne.

I see you are a wine maker- very cool! I am getting ready to brew a batch of beer tomorrow but have never made wine. Do you make it in your home? Does it require much room? I would like to give wine making a try eventually. Where do you get your grapes? Wine grapes are delicious eaten off of the vine

I try to make wine.  Its kinda a "work in progress" kinda thing.

Howdy Doc, welcome to the forum! Wayne is being polite, you should see his videos of grape crushing and pictures of his new tanks!
