I’m wanting to purchase a cheese press, up to 5 gallon capacity and am wondering if anyone can recommend one? I’ve looked on some sites and have found a few that look like they’d work well. I’m interested in finding one that does not require you to manually stack weight on it. I want to be able to set or “dial in” the desired weight. Right now I’m just using the plastic “tomme” molds and stacking weight on top. If anyone has any experience using something like this I’d appreciate any feedback you might have.

You might want to search this forum for “homemade cheese press” and see what others have done at very little cost!

Yeah, I tend to be a little on the technical side. Sometimes to a fault. You think this is bad, you should have seen the bill when I decided to take up photography….hehe
