actually it is very hard to drain on pH 6.4

i , personally, using raw milk, it is hard to control acidity with time frame and temp

I just cut my Gruyere which was in my first post in this thread (made on 15-Feb-2008)

the result was over i expected, the cheese is SHARP, mature, with small crystals crushed when u bite ... smile

the taste is just more than i ever expected to do .... guys this cheese worth to be aged over a year ...

the long aging made the small crunchy crystals

it is sharp as it burn ur tongue on first piece…

WOW
