Title: Caerphilly

This will be my first attempt at a cheddared cheese made with 20lt of raw milk. I am using Gort's recipe for his farmhouse version.
If it turns out half as good as his cheeses I will be happy.

Oh my!   I feel honored but also apprehensive--If it turns out well (as I'm sure it will for you) that will be so great.  If it somehow doesn't, I'll feel partly to blame.  Oh my!
Best of luck. Really.
Keep us all posted....and pictures, please.

Thanks RB and Gort. I only have myself to blame if it doesn't turn out. Or I could blame the milk?

It'll be great....but I'll blame the milk if there is any issue.....because after all...everything else is in your control, but that wasn't.  Let's hope the guy you get the milk from has treated it kindly.
P.S.--I'm making one on Monday....we can compare notes along the way.

You could blame the government (that's what they're for), or your dog, or the alignment of the stars or... The important thing is to always have someone or something to blame.
Of course, if it turns out well, that's due to your brilliance!

LMAO...   Andrew, Your right about governments. There all cooked. I think they stole 10oz of my cheese. ( With 5 gal of milk? )

The cheese out of the press weighs 4lb 6oz.
