Should cheese be flipped over half way through brining????

[rattman]

Simple question.

If I do flip, should I sprinkle salt on the newly exposed top side like I did at the beginning of the brine?

Thanks all!!

Not absolutely necessary to salt on top, no. You can brine normally, but be sure to flip.

Thank you sir!!

rattman, see the second Salmon Arm video here, at the 3:00 min mark where they sprinkle dry salt on top of newly brining cheeses as you (& I do), but they don't say if re-dry salt exposed cheese after turning in brine.

I probably should salt my Gouda's after turning but I'm too lazy and just give them a turn every few hours.
