Hello friends,
Wanted to share a pic of two more cheeses. One on the left was made on Sunday and the other is 9 days old. I will be wrapping the 9 day old today.
My wife thinks I'm crazy taking pictures of cheese and posting them.

Qdog: LOL ;-)
Those are nice! :-) Keep on snapping your cheeses... A cheese for you...
Oh they do look good... Making another myself this weekend as I need to keep my rotational stocks up. I try and make one every 6 weeks - I say try as there are more cheeses I like to make as well.

Oh and a cheese for you...
And you age them to 9 months? How much cave space d'ye have?
They look great to me. Have another cheese.

My guess is she's jealous about the cheeses you get (including one from me for your twins). Best keep it to yourself ;).

I have been making a cheese every week for the last three weeks. 1st cheese is clothbound and will be aged for a year. 2nd will be clothbound and aged for 6th months. The 3rd is going to be vacuumed sealed and aged for 3 months. This will be given to the farm that gives me my milk. It's the least I could do because they don't charge me for milk. I will be making another one this weekend and age that one for a year. I have had very good success with clothbound cheddar aged for a year. It taste so good. I just finished eating all that I had. Now I have to wait a year. Next year I will have a better supply.
Regarding my cave. I have an old refrigerator that I converted. It will hold plenty of stock. I'm no where close to filling it. It has both an electric themostat and humidity controller. It holds at 54 degrees and 85% humidity.

You get free milk straight from the farm??? We now all hate you! :)
But seriously, those cheddars look great, with a wonderful knit. (I have not yet succeeded in getting a really good knit on my cheddars.)
AC4U!
