I might try to go down there this week, what is your schedule? I'm off starting tomorrow morning till Thursday when I work at the hyperbaric center 7-3 so anytime is good for me. How about Thurs afternoon? That will give me some time to get the cheese done before I go to Houston.

this S#!T sounds like fun. I gotta learn how to make Cheese. Point me in the right direction guys. I have a farm within 20-30min of me that I can get whole/raw milk from.
Cheers

Ya, we tried but they won't sell unpasturized milk. Sucks cause I live less than 5 minutes drive from there.

This link is a good place to start. She's a little whacky but will certainly get you going in the right direction. I'm not really the one to ask about the cheesemaking, that is SWMBO's gig, I'm just the one who fetches the milk.

The cheesemaking book from Ricki is the only reference you need to get started. It's great. The cheesemaking.com website and store are run by the author.

I would smoke the Gouda but I don't have a cold smoke setup... although, I suppose I could build one using a hot plate, a cast iron skillet, a couple of cardboard boxes and a dryer vent. Hmmm....
