I was doing an emmenthaler and came out of the press with a couple of cracks. I am turning it daily and wiping it with brine, but I am afraid that the cracks may be a highway for undesirable bateria. What do you think? and secondly, what do you think made the cracks happen? Thanks a LOT

i have the same problem...what now?

Can you take a warm, sterile knife blade and blend, smooth the cracks over.  Just a thought.

  First post?....Hi Antonqos and welcome to the forum.  If you can post a photo of the cheese maybe someone can help you trouble shoot the problem.
