Title: H-K-J's brie batch #3
Post by: H-K-J on March 25, 2016, 03:42:25 PM
Started this make on the 10th, MBH was gettin a craving and I thought it sounded really good  :P
we used 2 gallons of store P/H milk and 1 QT heavy cream.
Sam III PC, Cal.Chl., mm-100-101, dry calf rennet, salt.
The temps and times all worked out as prescribed.
as always on the first flip my mind's eye sees a huge mess on the floor, (the wife say's to quit programing it :-X )
everything went well, all the flipping, salting, mold growth, and wrapping.
I got flustered and turned the wrapping over to my wife (She has more patients)
And now they rest in the cave as we anticipate and flip daily (patients my behind, I wanna eat some)
Going to try and get the pix' to load (2nd try)

Do you still keep them in the box after wrapping?

Hi AnnDee, we do keep them in some kind of a container up to the very end.
As some on the forum will attest to, I seem to have the ability to turn all cheese blue :o

We opened one of these last tuesday MMMMmmmmmm ^-^
the wife said, Best we made so far, I have to agree, the paste was like a thick cream, no ammonia taste or smell.
Even the sister in law, who had never eaten mold ripened cheese other than a roquefort or some blue cheese dressing at a restaurant said it was wonderful.
And now it is time to open the second one, did I mention MMMMmmmMMmmmMMMmmmm! (http://www.z4-forum.com/forum/images/smilies/smilie_thumbsup.gif)

Beautiful, H-K-J. You've managed to find that fine balance between oozy without being liquidy. Have a cheese. :)

I notice that the pics include "@ H-K-J". Curious....

What more can I add? Certainly looks like cheese perfection.
Please accept another cheese while I wipe the drool off my keyboard.
