Making cheese at home is surprisingly easy. Enjoy fresh flavors in just the kind of cheese you want. When you’re the cheese maker you get to decide which milk to use (cow, sheep, goat), what fat content, and which seasonings to add. It’s a fun project to do with kids or friends, as a cheese-making party. We have all the supplies you need—you just add the milk!

This is a very good video except for two things. Why on earth would you put good fresh local milk in the micro wave? And pouring the whey down the drain is criminal! It has so many uses, chickens and pigs love it or you could use it to water your house plants. Grow organic for life is a nice catch phrase, it would mean so much more if it is put in practice. I expect better from you folks.

Enjoyed the video on cheese making. Whey is a very nutritious liquid that could be used in bread making, or even fed to animals-chickens and dogs love it, rather than pouring down the drain. It is probably good in a septic, but city plumbing wouldn’t care.
Another point of concern is for those who do not use microwave ovens. Are there alternative methods of heating the curd as a substitute. all the concern about ‘growing organic’, why destroy the cellular structure with microwaves?

Thanks for the post with the motherearthnews link. I don’t even own a microwave and would never use one.

Mariah, Glad that was helpful! We had several questions about the microwave issue so we incorporated the Mother Earth link into the Cheese Making for Beginners post.
Adrianna, Much as we value our friends in Australia and New Zealand, at this time we only ship to the U.S.
