Cheese

We made are first hard cheeses, a wheel of Monterey Jack and Gouda. The process from milk to pressing curd takes about three hours. Once its pressed in the mold it really becomes sold the Monterey Jack has three pounds of weight four fifteen minute on the first round. That was just enough of weight to make it a sold mass that didn’t crumble when handled for the next weight. Both cheeses take about three months to age so we won’t be eating and until Easter. The next ones we are going to try are a couple of Cheddars, cheese making is so fun.
