Title: Peppered cheese #2
Post by: DoctorCheese on May 01, 2017, 02:39:26 AM
I used some different peppers on this one. The make went absolutely horrible because I was trying out a different brand of PH milk and the curds completely fell apart. I managed to salvage the cheese however.

Any time you get a cheese out of it, it is a success! I'll look forward to hearing the taste report.

Should I rebag this or will it be ok for a month?

Looks a lot better than some of the ones I left in the bag with no ill effects.
That said, rebagging is an opportunity to have a quick taste check.
Well, that didn't really help much did it :b

I normally get that when I have my VacBagger set to Dry/Normal. It actually puts a compressive force on the cheese.  I wouldn't worry about it as I've had my Cheddars under plastic for about 12 months with no ill effects.
