Title: Forgot to brine my Gouda
Post by: brewbush on July 15, 2015, 04:23:11 PM
ok.  Need advice.  I am a week out of my Gouda and for some reason I never brined it for the 12 hours.   I have it coated in a cream wax in cheese fridge. 

Any suggestions for this one?

I'd remove the wax and taste it.  If it is sour and tart I'd say that its a goner having developed too much acid.  If not I'd brine it now and proceed with the make.
