Cheese

[rgecaprock]

I don't see where this might fit so I'm posting here. Does anyone make cheese? I've been reading about it and thinking of trying it. There are some interesting looking kits. Gotta have something to go with the wine......

I moved this post since it is food and wine! I have never made cheese as of yet but had some awesome hot pepper jelly with Brie cheese on crackers the other day with some wine...it was awesome!

Funny you should ask, here's a picture of two pieces that are left from some my son and I made November last year.

We made a homemade press, but I am too lazy to go upstairs and take a picture of it tonight!!

Ramona, well you made me try some of the cheese, it has aged very well!! Goes great with some fastdrinkinwine.com....

Stinkie,


I need details about the cheese. What kind? Did you use a kit? How long to age...etc. Is that a pilsner glass you are drinking your wine out of? Do you have time to actually go to a job? You are always up to something. You remind me a young verson of my Dad. He keeps bees. raises trout, makes wine,makes syrup,has gardens and orchards, does stained glass, photography...and he's almost 80.


Amy let me know where you get your cheese supplies....unless you milk your own cow and start from scratch.......Ramona

Stinkie,


I didn't mean to get you picked on but you are an easy target!!!!!!


All in fun.......Hey and Glenvall, you all should be as cool as my old Dad!! I admire you all for the things you do. I think it is great. There should be more people like you.....glad to have you as friends!!!

1: I never use the right glass

2: You made me go upstairs with my camera

3: I'm working 9 days strait right now 12 hour shifts

I drilled a bunch of holes in a 5 gallon pail, but it was actually to big around you need a 6 to 8 inch pipe.

Homemade press, hang a gallon of water on the hook on the left end for weight.

Score the bottom wood for draining and a solid one for the top press.

Upstairs is up the creaky stairs by the saddle, past the snowshoes and by the moose skin. Through the dinasoar blanket.

Where do you live? You must be walking around with your camera in a holster. That is really a cool place you have.

I live deep in the woods of Maine. My 47 acres.

Same here. No caffiene for me either. Lots and lots of water, especially this time of year, and beer, and wine. Oh yes, and Ameretta sours.


Sorry, that deadliest catch show bores me silly. I can only watch 30 minute shows because of my ADD and OCD.
