Title: first cheddar
Post by: Justinmctavish on February 06, 2011, 04:09:20 AM
attempted my first cheddar yesterday with good results.... I think. Other than a a bit of a weak curd, my end yield was about 4 pounds using 4 gallons of store bought full milk. Any comments would be great!

Looking good so far.  Now comes the hard part - waiting for it to age so you can taste it!

Yield sounds on target. Looks good.
How much annatto was used?
