Green Cheese Maker - 29 June 2008 10:49 AM

I’m hoping that ref. to 40 pounds was a typo and Nabil really meant 4 pounds.  I can’t imagine the pot I’d need to make a 40 pound cheese.

was not typo, i really meant it , it is a farm size, when u use 400 gallons in one vat (pot).

for me, biggest wheel i made (cheddar) is out of 11 gallons, and it was so hard to work with such amounts

Your equipment is obviously larger than mine.  I’d like to see a picture of your press.
