Hey Thanks, and oh so far they have tasted great (not sure about the big one yet as it is still baking in the cave)...

I am over in Korea and the milk I use typically is Good Pasture Milk which is pasteurized at 63c for 30 minutes,, I have also used another milk but not sure the name other than it has big letters/numbers with 63C

I have used both tablet and liquid right now or for the ones above it was liquid animal rennet ...

I have some cultures from a mad millie kit and others from different places I ordered from on the internet,,in fact I just got a culture for doing swiss cheese but it took to long to get here and the freeze pack was all but thawed out for I dont know how many days... :( I put it in the freezer and will try it later when I get ready to make a swiss...

I just finished making some mozz a few days ago.. Milk is very expensive here I bought 2 gallons for about 29 dollars US.....

Holy crud that's expensive milk. It's possible to make cheese from powdered milk. At least the internet told me this a while ago.

For the swiss, did you get the culture that creates the "eyes"?
 
Yes milk is very expensive here, I have found a local farm that I may be able to get goats milk from , or I have got there phone number, hopefully it will be cheaper...

Yes I got the Proprionic Shermanii (Swiss) C6 to make the eyes,,, I didn't catch it when I ordered it but have enough now for 128 to 160 gallons!!! LOL


I heard that as well about the powdered milk but have not tried it. I am new at this as well and am trying to avoid deviating from the recipes at least till I get enough successful under my belt along with some failures to learn by before I start modding recipes :)
So till then I will just have to make do with the high price of milk,,

Yea, that's the culture. I haven't made swiss, but I want to.
