Very holey, although they look mostly mechanical and not due to gas.  How is the taste?  The rind looks really nice.  Well done.

thanks JeffHamm and Spoons

there are two types of hole large and small
large = mechanical
small = yeast
the dough slightly acidic and brittle
I think that acidification was too strong.
It was caused by a culture with too much power acidification
because I use doses of ferment destine for pasteurized milk

basically it's very good and it melts very quickly
I think he did a very good grated cheese
