Yes, your info does help. I’ll do the best I can and keep track of what I did and hope for the best!
Also, I want to try making the gouda next and the recipe says soak it in a salt brine 12 hours…but the book also says cheese made from store bought milk does not always stand up to brine solution and may dissolve. Store milk is all I have at the moment (although I am already searching for fresh milk sources), and it seems a lot of work only to have your cheese dissolve. Any options or should I try it and again hope for the best?
Also, any suggestions on where to get cheesemaking supplies??? Wax, salt, a different press etc?
Thanks!
