Making our own cheese has been on our "We really should try this" list for a while, so I ordered this kit. Making our first batch of mozzarella was really exciting! Ricotta is quite easy and we are looking forward to advancing to Monterey Jack and cheddar. The kit has some of the essentials for starting cheese cultures, but read the description and especially the items shown as "people often buy these together" suggestions. You may have everything you need or you may need to acquire them. The cost of the kit is really high for the contents. The booklet is helpful and the youtube presentation is of value. It's helpful to have many of the things needed to get started on cheese making together in one package, but a little research would allow you to buy the ingredients yourself for less money. Combined with the equipment required and some of the right type of milk, this would be a really fun gift. Review: Easy, Fun, and Everything You Need! My "Best Christmas Gift of 2018" - I gifted this to my spouse as a stocking stuffer, then proceeded to purloin it for myself. Standing Stone Farms proprietor and master cheesemaker Paula Butler has managed to put everything you need -- and I mean "everything" -- into one small box. Plus, she has produced a companion video and recipe collection that is a must-have companion to this kit, especially if you are new to cheesemaking. Many people avoid cheesemaking as a hobby because it is shrouded in mystery and misconception. Paula shows you how easy it is to get started with some of your favorite soft cheeses, then holds your hands as you step into more challenging recipes, such as cheddar. With a little practice and attention to detail, the skills needed are well within the capabilities of the average home cook. Best of all, Paula eschews the idea of spending money on specialized equipment. She shows you how to do it all with common kitchen implements. It's cheesemaking the way it's been done for thousands of years, and it doesn't require hours in the kitchen and a biological laboratory full of cultures and special implements. Just your head, your hands, and your heart. Like I said, the companion video is a must. (Just search for this product and put "DVD" at the end, and it should come up.) My friends are already talking about getting "gift" cheeses when I'm really on the go with this thing. Who doesn't love cheese? As it turns out, Monty Python was right: Blessed are the cheesemakers! Amen. ## Features - 🏆 FOOD NETWORK’S BEST OVERALL CHEESE MAKING KIT & BEST HARD AND SOFT CHEESE KIT — Food Network’s Test Kitchen put the world’s top cheese making kits head to head and gave Standing Stone Farms their two highest honors — Best Overall Cheese Making Kit AND Best Hard and Soft Cheese Kit.

If not, what else would need to be purchased to do so?** A: You can make feta, Monterey Jack and Cheddar Cheese curds as well as many others with this kit. However, to successfully make hard cheeses you need more than ingredients. You need a good cheese press and an aging area where temperatures and humidity can be maintained for long periods of time. Most of us use a wine refrigerator dedicated for cheese. In addition, we never recommend anyone jumping into hard cheeses as they are considered intermediate to advanced. Learning the basics and working out the kinks on a cheese that takes 1 gallon of milk and a day to make is much better than one that takes 3-5 gallons and 6 months to make. Best, Paula **Q: What's the difference between this kit And the basic one?** A: Hi, the ultimate has several additions such as Mesophilic culture (MM100) and Lipase powder to make cheeses such as feta, cheddar, cream cheese, Monterey Jack and many others. It also allows you to make a more flavorful, traditional Italian mozzarella and a more traditional method of making Chèvre (goat cheese). It contains the additional recipes, a booklet of "What to do with your Cheese" recipes and a instant read dial Thermometer. It is most similar to our Supreme kit, my personal favorite without the educational DVD. Let me know if you have any more questions as I'm always happy to help. Paula **Q: Are the lipase and the mesophilic culture kosher?** A: Hi, Lipase is not and unfortunately it can not be sourced as such at this time from anywhere. The meso is if you purchase it in a slighly larger package. Both the 50DCU and 100DCU that we sell on here are packaged in a kosher environment. We do have kosher certificates for all of our products however, a few items are repackaged in a non kosher certified environment even though the environment would meet standards. **Q: Can you use this kit to make cheese from coconut milk or coconut cream?** A: Nope ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An exciting new cooking adventure *by E***N on July 20, 2020* As we were Sheltering-at-home for the Covid-19, we were looking for new, fun projects to occupy ourselves.
