This is the first time I got to see how cheese is made and what a long process, so much patience, I shall never complain about the price of cheese again..Thank you
When I was a young man out of school, I worked at a cheese factory. I was a driver to pick up canned milk from the farmers. On Sundays I would help another fellow drive up to Wisconsin with a load of different cheeses,mostly cheddar, swiss, and mozzarella. Love fresh made cheese.
I can barely wait 24 hours for my homemade cheesecake to set... 3 to 6 months... You have the patience of a saint.. The cheese truly looks amazing. Great job. :)
Many people pretend to know what they are doing just for views but I think you are the real deal. You are meticulous. I’ve found a teacher in you. And I subscribed. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. They are a treasure of information
Well actually you don’t HAVE to age the cheese, and most store bought cheeses won’t be aged at all, which is why it molds and goes bad, the cheese made in this video will likely not go bad for months or years. Just a fact to take with you.
Cheddar making is a labor of love. In factory, there is production scale. For someone who is busy, it’s still cheaper to buy it. But for hobbyists, this is a great step-by- step tutorial for a great piece of cheddar. Bravo!
I had not planned on spending an entire 1/2 an hr watching the process of cheese making .... but I did. Like a good suspense movie, I couldn't turn away, LOL. Very informative, thank you!
Hi Jane, Oh my goodness. Thank you for the lovely feedback. YumYum and I are happy to entertain you! If you enjoy the cat, she is the most entertaining in our Butterkase video: ua-cam.com/video/8ah-1lXiY7E/v-deo.html. We're so glad you found the channel! Lisa
This is a fairly detailed 'traditional' cheese making tutorial. Let's try to make our own cheese at home so that we know exactly the quality of the ingredients and the hygiene. Thank you for sharing. Greetings always...👍👍👍
I love learning new things. My grandmother taught me how to garden and can. My girls thinks it's a waste of time. I told them I thought the same thing when my grandmother taught me. But I'm glad she taught me. She said you never know if you will have resort back to these methods. And I tell my girls the same thing. I have got to find the stuff I need to make cheese. Because you know what is in it.
Your grandmother taught you wonderful skills! You and I will be the popular people in the zombie apocalypse. You can find a list of the ingredients in the description box (affiliate links) that can help you find what you need. Happy cheesemaking!💛🧀
@@Cheese52 where may I find non chlorinated water? 😳 I've been afraid to drink water that's not been thru reverse osmosis filteration bc I have recovered from a brain tumor from contaminated drinking water. Now I'm going to make my own food bc I don't trust anyone after that experience.
@@kristinatidwell6563 Sorry to hear about your illness. To your water question: I use purified water from the grocery store. Other cheesemakers I know use distilled. You can boil tap water to remove the chlorine. Making your own food is a great way to control what you ingest, and I hope you find recipes that are helpful to you here.
Start with your own cow - and your own bail feed for her, and whatever you need for your pasture's down time, so you're not buying fodder. Then you have pure clean milk to work with. The quickest way to turn milk into a solid you can eat is with either eggs or maize flour and honey, any of which you can also grow at home pretty easily. If you want to get really classy, pour your milk and egg mixture over some home baked bread (growing and grinding wheat is a bit of work, but doable) sliced and spread with home grown butter and honey, and sprinkle some home grown dried fruit between the layers of bread. Then just bake it in the oven and enjoy! All of which is quicker and less work than making cheese - but cheese is tasty too, and stores the goodness of the milk for later use.
Wah!!this lady has patience..and the passion she has making it it’s priceless..Thank you for your work..now are you selling any??I gonna skip the making process ..
Hi! I don't sell my cheese, I just enjoy it with family and friends. This recipe is time consuming, but many cheese recipes are shorter than this one. Check out the Beginner's Series playlist- there are many easy to learn recipes there. Thanks for watching!
It IS a lot more involved than i expected! Kudos to those who love to make their own! I think I'll give this one hobby a pass and leave it to thise who DO love it, and the time requirements...👏😆👏💗💞

Hey Lisa , I have questions about cheese making process 1 Why we use Mesophillic Culture 2 Why we use calcium chloride 3 Why we use Thermophillic culture 4 Difference between Mesophillic and thermophillic culture 5 Does ageing cheese changes flavour and texture 6 How is yum yum now . I love her so much 😍
Oh my goodness! I will try to answer all of your questions. 1. Mesophilic culture is used for recipes that keep the temperature under 102F. They become stressed at that temp, and die at 113F. 2. Calcium chloride is used when pasteurized milk is used. The heat treatment denatures the protein and the calcium precipitates (falls out) of the milk serum. Calcium is needed to set a curd, so I add it back in. 3. Thermophilic cultures can handle temperatures much higher than mesophilic, so they are used when recipes reach temps over 102F. 4. Culture choice greatly impacts flavor, so recipe writers use different ones to create the flavor profiles they are after. 5. Yes aging absolutely changes the flavor, texture and aroma of cheeses. And different aging techniques will affect those attributes as well. For example, a natural rind cheese will be drier than a wax or vacuum sealed cheese made from the same recipe because it allows for vapor exchange. 6. YumYum is good! She is currently sleeping on the window sill.😺💤 Hope that helps! Lisa
Great video , i was looking for a tutorial to make mozarella but i ended up watching the hole half hour video of yours , you're such a good narrator , explaning everything slowly and clearly , your voice is deep and calm , your expressions are not overdone and you're not overreacting when tasting the cheese . RESPECT
It was so calming watching the process of cheese making. I never really thought about making cheddar cheese, but now I am interested in making. I am inspired! Thank you! Sweet kitty was really a nice touch.
As a truck driver, I have no time to do such things. I don't know if making cheese would even make the cut honestly. But I really enjoyed your video. Thanks so much. I have to mention this. I have a friend of a friend, who makes homemade wine. While I was watching I thought it would be cool to have my homemade cheese with his wine.
Thank you so much for your kind compliment! A friend who makes wine is a good friend, indeed. Homemade wine and homemade cheese would make for a lovely evening by a fire. Thanks for being here, cheese friend! Lisa
So I wish I could like this 1000 times, but UA-cam doesn’t let me. This video deserves so much appreciation. I make cooking videos and I can tell so much time and effort went into this. Plus seeing the process in action gives me a greater appreciation for foods I often take for granted. Very nice video!
Mason, Thank you for your confidence in my work. You are correct - as a one woman, one kitty show, all of the production steps are done by me (because YumYum refuses to learn to edit!). Cheese making is becoming a lost art and it important to me to preserve it for anyone who wants to learn it- and with this medium, at no cost to them. Thanks for being here! Lisa
I live in Nicaragua so don't know if we can get hold of Mesophillic cultures here, but I will try, as Cheddar is my favourite cheese. This is by far the best video I have seen on cheese-making, you make each step of the process really clear and easy to follow, and you let the process take centre stage, no ego getting in the way, it couldn't be better and I can't wait to watch your other videos, thank you so much.
Thank you so much! You could use cultured buttermilk in place of mesophiliic culture. Use 60 ml for 4 liters of milk. Hope that helps, and so glad you enjoy the channel!
@@usadaily135 This time at home has allowed us to relax, slow down and learn new things. Great things can come from unexpected circumstances. So glad you enjoying the things that make you happy!
Thank you so much for making this video. You have a very nice teaching voice and your instructions are very clear and easy to understand. I am excited to try making my own cheese! Yum-Yum is adorable and a very good cheese-making supervisor!
I just read a comment 5 minutes into watching the video ... "Six months to make cheddar cheese.' Are you serious, are you crazy, am I going to try this, and come back 6 months. Absolutely!!!! This is such an awesome, and great video!!!!
I am impressed with your patience and this step by step instructions of how to make this awesome looking cheddar cheese. Thank you so much for sharing.
Me, laying down at 9 pm: "I'm going to go to bed super early. I'll be so productive tomorrow!" Me, on UA-cam at midnight: "Make my own cheddar cheese? No whey!"
This lady is a jem.. sure the man on the other side of her ring knows it. Trusting a process, patience, joy in the details of the final product. Ima have to make this myself some Day in the near future.
Kind words, Mike. Thank you, although I am pretty sure I got the better end of the deal in this marriage! You will love cheesemaking. It requires time and patience, but it is so worth it. Welcome to the channel! Lisa
First time here and I'm really impressed with your channel. I know this is a cheese channel, but the first thing I noticed and loved was how clean everything looks. From the floors up to your measuring spoons all looks flawless...clean, fresh. I love that!
I agree with you for I was very please to see her kitchen so clean and how everything was so spotless also how gentle and smooth she handle the cheese very good job
Congratulations! Your teach method is amazing and calm. I love cheese!!!!! Subscribing right now! If you lived in Brazil i would buy right now a delicious peace of cheese for my breakfast. :D
WOW!!! After researching the food industry, I decided I would try to learn how to make my own butter, cheese, and bread. Pork is in just about everything we like to eat and now I know why we feel bad, even when we think we are eating healthy, it's crazy. This is a LOT of work, LOL, oh my goodness, but I'm glad I found you. It will take some time to learn and to purchase all the equipment, but my prayer is it will be worth it in the long run. THANK YOU for sharing your gift and knowledge. God Bless!
Welcome to the channel cheese friend! Here you will find step by step instruction, with many helpful details in the description boxes. Happy cheesemaking!! Lisa
This video was right on time. Just started cheese making and was so confused staring at the directions I had. I've only made mozzarella so far. You made it 1000% easier. Liked and subscribed. My tools are janky and my cheese press is a Chinese bun warmer with a cake pan and 40 lbs of my son's dumbbell weight, but I try before I buy, lol!
Oh I am so glad. Your system will work just fine, especially in the beginning. If you find yourself hooked (which you probably will) you can slowly invest in other tools. Welcome to the channel, cheese friend. Have a look around, find a few more videos to enjoy, and have so much fun!
I LOVE cheddar cheese. I'm too lazy to make my own, but it's interesting and informative to see you make it. Good to know how if there's ever a cheese shortage and I absolutely have to DIY it. :)
Survivalist Hint: collect parmesan cheese packets from pizza shops, etc. When the SHTF, use a razor blade to ration out the cheese on a hard surface such as a mirror. Use part of a drinking straw or make one out of paper. One nostril at a time, insufflate a small amount sufficient to moderate cravings until regular cheese supply is resumed.
Hello Julia! Sorry to be a distraction to your exam studies, but I am so glad you found the channel. :) Hope the distraction was worth it, and good luck with your exams!
Julia Urban, yeah, I’ve been trying to convince my 2 year old grandchild that we need to know how to make cheddar cheese, so far she doesn’t believe me.
I have tried following written instructions for making cheese before and I just kept getting lost, but this was so easy to follow. Definitely saving this video for future reference and will definitely make some cheese.
Cheese52, you are so welcome and I truly enjoyed watching you, make some delicious Cheddar cheese it look amazing and look to be healthy. I, have learned so much watching you making a beautiful cheddar cheese. .
I absolutely love this video! I suddenly felt like I can do this for the rest of my life to make that royal looking slab of cheese! And you are totally awesome! So organised! Love you and Yum-Yum!
I love your voice! You’re so relaxing to listen to! But very thorough, personable, and informative! I can’t wait to try! Thank you so much! Keep making videos! 🤍Caitlyn
I was looking for a goat cheese recipe and accidentally clicked on this video. I’m not even mad, I watched the whole video and subscribed and liked and went through your amazing channel. Great work
You're not the first to suggest it! It's a great idea, so I had her do a taste test with me in the How to Smoke Cheese video: ua-cam.com/channels/AyJJlLsdWg8f0VrKfB73Ew.html. She's pretty cute. Enjoy!
wow i am very impressed ! your skill is amazing, you patience even more so, i can say i love trying new things in my kitchen, however cheddar only a perfectionist can make, and i say that because you can't make mistakes when you're making cheddar, you have all my admiration !!
Such a lot of work and time for so little cheese. Fair play to you, you have a lot of patience. I prefer to buy mine., but I still thought the video very interesting and educational.
It's true This cheese does require time and patience. There are others that are shorter - and they provide gratification much sooner😉 You can check out the beginners series playlist for quicker recipes. So glad you found the channel and that you learned something today! Thanks for watching 😀
Speedy Rax you can tell the synthetic ones from the rest because they are not allowed to put the word “cheese” on the packaging. Also shredded cheese may be mixed with wood pulp or flour to keep it from sticking together. Just buy a block and slice or shred it yourself
@@nikelaloca8037 I'm not so sure about that. I can make pretty pretty epic lambic beers with lactic bacteria and sacro yeast. I've made few cheeses with success. Bread on the other hand... They are always so dense. I never seem to get a proper proofing. My sourdough plant looks healty. If I feed it, an hour later, it has risen almost to the bring. But bake a bread, and you have this square piece of dough that you can trow to kill a pig.
@@CraftyZA sounds like over-kneading. But sourdough is denser than regular bread. I youtubed" easy bread", and made a really good white bread first try. Maybe the type of flour matters... always sift.
Hello from Idaho! Lol, I dont plan to sell my cheese, I just teach people to make it. :) I get my milk from a lovely local farm- Cloverleaf Dairy in Buhl, Idaho. If you are ever up this way, stop by their ice cream shop- it's the bomb!!!
It was indeed my first time on this channel, and I've subscribed. I like what you said at the end about how it's hard to wait for the ageing. I've tasted things like 9 year old cheddar and 20+ year old whisky, and I wonder how people manage to wait that long for things. Then again, I have a bottle of Fuller's Vintage Ale from 2014 sitting in my pantry and I'm still waiting to open it. And then sometimes you forget about stuff. I recently found some bottles of brown ale that my uncle made 17 or 18 years ago and they were still very nice, not even highly hopped or with a high alcohol content, which are the main preservatives for beer. Love your kitty, btw.
"kitty flip" lol. Question: would sealing the cheese in wax have prevented that bit of mold that showed up or not? Also, you said you were saving that first pot of whey to make caramel? Do you have a video for that as well? Thank you for your video, I've always wanted to learn how to make cheese, but most of the other videos were too complicated or too vague.
Ya, she's the star of the channel, that's for sure! To your waxing question: Vac sealing does a better job of mold control than waxing, in my experience. To your Whey Caramel question: Yes! Here's the video: ua-cam.com/video/6tfn4uSgY7Y/v-deo.html I try to be as clear as I can, so the videos can be followed step by step. That's the goal, anyway. We're glad you found us. Welcome to the channel, Robert! Lisa and YumYum
Yep! That's how I roll. I am doing my best to include the taste test with every video, instead of having to hunt down the follow up vid. I think it's worth it!
I truly enjoyed watching this presentation of cheddar cheese making! It seems to be very tedious, but you are so calm and patient. It was calming just to hear you. I can tell you must be a real blessing to your family! 😊
I was kinda annoyed at how expensive cheddar is. After seeing this video, I am still annoyed but at myself for being so ignorant. I could never have the patience and skills that you do. Kudos to you.
Yes! I love to make ricotta with the whey- here's what I do: ua-cam.com/video/XOLUzfAhueA/v-deo.html. Have you tried whey caramel? OH MY goodness- so delicious! ua-cam.com/video/TZZvCNEKTBI/v-deo.html
I'm pretty certain I've never seen cheese being made before now. After the last press I was expecting you to say "Okay, let's cut a piece and taste it" not "Okay let's vacuum seal this and put away for 6 months". :( I don't know if I would have the patience for cheese making, LOL, but that cheese sure looked good!
I know right? Not to mention the patience to wait to finish the video with the taste test included :). I had a 1/2 finished video in edit for what seemed like forever while I waited for the cheese to age. It was worth it in the end. This cheese was divine. I am so glad you found the channel!
This is the first time viewing your channel and was very impressed to see how long it took to make cheddar cheese God bless you I would not even try to attempt making it for me the process is time consuming , but I really enjoyed seeing how to make cheddar cheese 🧀 and admire your patience. Well done

Hey Lisa , I have questions about cheese making process
1 Why we use Mesophillic Culture
2 Why we use calcium chloride
3 Why we use Thermophillic culture
4 Difference between Mesophillic and thermophillic culture
5 Does ageing cheese changes flavour and texture
6 How is yum yum now . I love her so much 😍
Oh my goodness! I will try to answer all of your questions.
1. Mesophilic culture is used for recipes that keep the temperature under 102F. They become stressed at that temp, and die at 113F.
2. Calcium chloride is used when pasteurized milk is used. The heat treatment denatures the protein and the calcium precipitates (falls out) of the milk serum. Calcium is needed to set a curd, so I add it back in.

Thank you so much! You could use cultured buttermilk in place of mesophiliic culture. Use 60 ml for 4 liters of milk. Hope that helps, and so glad you enjoy the channel!
Covid19 brought me here to relax my mind and learn new things
Welcome! So glad you could relax with me in my kitchen. Stay well, and stay positive, cheese friend!
Covid-19 got me gardening, cooking, baking and cheesemaking...among other things...
Amen
@@PACstove I so wish so for all! Hopefully it will be over soon but I fell in love with gardening and cheese making amd will keep doing so.
@@usadaily135 This time at home has allowed us to relax, slow down and learn new things. Great things can come from unexpected circumstances. So glad you enjoying the things that make you happy!

This lady is a jem.. sure the man on the other side of her ring knows it. Trusting a process, patience, joy in the details of the final product. Ima have to make this myself some Day in the near future.
Kind words, Mike. Thank you, although I am pretty sure I got the better end of the deal in this marriage!
You will love cheesemaking. It requires time and patience, but it is so worth it.
Welcome to the channel!

First time here and I'm really impressed with your channel. I know this is a cheese channel, but the first thing I noticed and loved was how clean everything looks. From the floors up to your measuring spoons all looks flawless...clean, fresh. I love that!
Thank you so much! I work hard to keep everything spotless. Thanks for noticing. :) Welcome, new cheese friend!
I agree with you for I was very please to see her kitchen so clean and how everything was so spotless also how gentle and smooth she handle the cheese very good job
Summary of 5 months -

Lovely feedback. Thank you!
A whole channel dedicated to cheese?
I’m subscribing.
You found the right place. Welcome, cheese friend!
I enjoyed your presentation, I would never try to make cheese, it seems like a very hard job but was fun watching you
Thank you so much!
Excellent tutorial! I thought it would be much more complicated. Thank you for sharing this adventure with us.
Hi Dennis,
So true! It really isn't that difficult if you just follow it step by step. Thank you for the lovely feedback! Lisa
Congratulations! Your teach method is amazing and calm. I love cheese!!!!! Subscribing right now! If you lived in Brazil i would buy right now a delicious peace of cheese for my breakfast. :D
WOW!!! After researching the food industry, I decided I would try to learn how to make my own butter, cheese, and bread. Pork is in just about everything we like to eat and now I know why we feel bad, even when we think we are eating healthy, it's crazy. This is a LOT of work, LOL, oh my goodness, but I'm glad I found you. It will take some time to learn and to purchase all the equipment, but my prayer is it will be worth it in the long run. THANK YOU for sharing your gift and knowledge. God Bless!
Welcome to the channel cheese friend! Here you will find step by step instruction, with many helpful details in the description boxes. Happy cheesemaking!! Lisa
This video was right on time. Just started cheese making and was so confused staring at the directions I had. I've only made mozzarella so far. You made it 1000% easier. Liked and subscribed. My tools are janky and my cheese press is a Chinese bun warmer with a cake pan and 40 lbs of my son's dumbbell weight, but I try before I buy, lol!
Oh I am so glad. Your system will work just fine, especially in the beginning. If you find yourself hooked (which you probably will) you can slowly invest in other tools. Welcome to the channel, cheese friend. Have a look around, find a few more videos to enjoy, and have so much fun!
I LOVE cheddar cheese. I'm too lazy to make my own, but it's interesting and informative to see you make it. Good to know how if there's ever a cheese shortage and I absolutely have to DIY it. :)
Survivalist Hint: collect parmesan cheese packets from pizza shops, etc. When the SHTF, use a razor blade to ration out the cheese on a hard surface such as a mirror. Use part of a drinking straw or make one out of paper. One nostril at a time, insufflate a small amount sufficient to moderate cravings until regular cheese supply is resumed.

Thanks. I really enjoyed watching this. I had no idea how much work, cheese making is. I now have much more respect for cheddar.
Hi Bobbi,
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! It's true- Making Cheddar is time consuming but the rewards- so worth it. Thanks for watching! Lisa
I should be studying for my exams... But Here i am watching how to make cheddar without any reason and i dont know how i did end Up here 😅😂
Hello Julia! Sorry to be a distraction to your exam studies, but I am so glad you found the channel. :) Hope the distraction was worth it, and good luck with your exams!
Julia Urban, yeah, I’ve been trying to convince my 2 year old grandchild that we need to know how to make cheddar cheese, so far she doesn’t believe me.
Yeah, I am supposed to be writing my thesis :D this happens i guess
@@turkishluv Hope your thesis goes well! Glad to be part of the break you need to do your best work. Good luck!
@@Cheese52 Thank you! This is great for breaks and cheese looks yummy!
I have tried following written instructions for making cheese before and I just kept getting lost, but this was so easy to follow. Definitely saving this video for future reference and will definitely make some cheese.
I am so glad you find the tutorials helpful. Welcome, cheese friend! Lisa
I'm beginning to believe I need to learn more of these baking skills than office skills now.
Haha, maybe so. Either way, cheesemaking is a great skill to have! Plus, you will gain many new cheese friends. 🤣💛🧀

You can never learn too many baking skills.
I have so much respect for cheddar, now. What a process! Not difficult, but certainly more involved than paneer. Thanks for posting this!
Hi Lyndsey,
Yes! Cheddar is a longer process than some recipes, for sure. I am so glad you found the channel. Welcome! Lisa

I was looking for a goat cheese recipe and accidentally clicked on this video. I’m not even mad, I watched the whole video and subscribed and liked and went through your amazing channel. Great work
Hahahaha! I am glad you enjoyed the channel! Stay tuned for a goat cheese recipe- I'm working on one now..... Welcome! Happy cheesemaking!
Cheese52 wow I watched most of your videos and it’s truly amazing, I can’t wait for the goat cheese recipe.
That cheese looked so yummy! I wanted so badly to see kitty try a tiny piece!
You're not the first to suggest it! It's a great idea, so I had her do a taste test with me in the How to Smoke Cheese video: ua-cam.com/channels/AyJJlLsdWg8f0VrKfB73Ew.html. She's pretty cute. Enjoy!
Yea, I was thinking the same. My Cat Loves Cheddar cheese. I can't have any unless I share with him, his paws go right for it.
Looks delicious. Will definitely be trying this. Thanks!
Fantastic! I'd love to know how it goes for you! Lisa

Gotta see if you tried it! Happy to see you in these comments LOL!! Hope all is well luv ur content 🥳
wow i am very impressed ! your skill is amazing, you patience even more so, i can say i love trying new things in my kitchen, however cheddar only a perfectionist can make, and i say that because you can't make mistakes when you're making cheddar, you have all my admiration !!
Thank you for that lovely feedback 😊
I'm looking your video from France and I love it
Well, hello from the US! Thanks for watching💛🧀
i am so glad i watched this video!!! this is so wholesome! your tone is so relaxing
Thank you so much!!
Such a lot of work and time for so little cheese. Fair play to you, you have a lot of patience.
I prefer to buy mine., but I still thought the video very interesting and educational.
It's true This cheese does require time and patience. There are others that are shorter - and they provide gratification much sooner😉 You can check out the beginners series playlist for quicker recipes. So glad you found the channel and that you learned something today! Thanks for watching 😀
It definitely helps you appreciate where your food comes from and all the effort to get it on your plate!
@@thegreatestislove8604 It's so true. I have a better appreciation too.
i heard that all the cheese we buy most of those are synthetic...
Speedy Rax you can tell the synthetic ones from the rest because they are not allowed to put the word “cheese” on the packaging. Also shredded cheese may be mixed with wood pulp or flour to keep it from sticking together. Just buy a block and slice or shred it yourself
I will never taste a bite of cheddar cheese again without a GREAT deal of gratitude!!!
You know it! It's a long process for sure 😀
I’m finding out that making Cheese is a lot like brewing Beer and and making Bread Thank You.
Totally true! They are all culinary art forms in their own right. So glad you enjoyed the video.
Bread is easier than cheese!
@@nikelaloca8037 I'm not so sure about that. I can make pretty pretty epic lambic beers with lactic bacteria and sacro yeast. I've made few cheeses with success. Bread on the other hand... They are always so dense. I never seem to get a proper proofing. My sourdough plant looks healty. If I feed it, an hour later, it has risen almost to the bring. But bake a bread, and you have this square piece of dough that you can trow to kill a pig.
@@CraftyZA sounds like over-kneading. But sourdough is denser than regular bread. I youtubed" easy bread", and made a really good white bread first try. Maybe the type of flour matters... always sift.
@@CraftyZA bacon is always good...
This is such a great channel i encountered totally by accident! And the cat! 😍
Thanks! So glad you found the channel. High paw from YumYum!
Man, I came curious about the cheese and left well-informed and happy :D Thanks for sharing! This was a delightful video!
'Well informed and happy" means I did my job. Thanks so much!
I watched the cat playing and forgot about the cheese😂😂❤❤❤
Haha! Sometimes I do that too!!! Thanks for watching, and high paw from YumYum!
Imagine if she has her own cheese business 😳 i want 2 to go!💜 also where do you get your milk from ??? It's so fancy !
love from vegas💜
Hello from Idaho! Lol, I dont plan to sell my cheese, I just teach people to make it. :) I get my milk from a lovely local farm- Cloverleaf Dairy in Buhl, Idaho. If you are ever up this way, stop by their ice cream shop- it's the bomb!!!
It was indeed my first time on this channel, and I've subscribed. I like what you said at the end about how it's hard to wait for the ageing. I've tasted things like 9 year old cheddar and 20+ year old whisky, and I wonder how people manage to wait that long for things. Then again, I have a bottle of Fuller's Vintage Ale from 2014 sitting in my pantry and I'm still waiting to open it. And then sometimes you forget about stuff. I recently found some bottles of brown ale that my uncle made 17 or 18 years ago and they were still very nice, not even highly hopped or with a high alcohol content, which are the main preservatives for beer.
Love your kitty, btw.
Welcome to the channel! Another believer that "anything worthwhile takes time". Love it. Thanks for watching!

"kitty flip" lol. Question: would sealing the cheese in wax have prevented that bit of mold that showed up or not? Also, you said you were saving that first pot of whey to make caramel? Do you have a video for that as well? Thank you for your video, I've always wanted to learn how to make cheese, but most of the other videos were too complicated or too vague.
Ya, she's the star of the channel, that's for sure!
To your waxing question: Vac sealing does a better job of mold control than waxing, in my experience.
To your Whey Caramel question: Yes! Here's the video: ua-cam.com/video/6tfn4uSgY7Y/v-deo.html
I try to be as clear as I can, so the videos can be followed step by step. That's the goal, anyway. We're glad you found us. Welcome to the channel, Robert!

Very professional job on the filming and video creation. I loved this video. You also have a very soothing and relaxing voice! :)
Thank you for that lovely feedback. I am so glad you found the channel!
She waited for 6months for a video
Some serious dedication there
Yep! That's how I roll. I am doing my best to include the taste test with every video, instead of having to hunt down the follow up vid. I think it's worth it!
Had to give her a like after that
@@evypinero2395 same damn the dedication
I truly enjoyed watching this presentation of cheddar cheese making! It seems to be very tedious, but you are so calm and patient. It was calming just to hear you. I can tell you must be a real blessing to your family! 😊
Hello, Pat!

@@Cheese52 Thank you
I was kinda annoyed at how expensive cheddar is. After seeing this video, I am still annoyed but at myself for being so ignorant. I could never have the patience and skills that you do. Kudos to you.
Nice lady making nice cheese- for some reason I want a big wheel of cheddar on the table...
Nice man making a nice comment on the channel. Thanks for watching!
Is that a Buckethead profile pic I see, or am I mistaken?
You are not by yourself
When you strain out your curds, don't let any of the whey go to waste. Ricotta is quick and easy and really tasty with honey on bread.
Yes! I love to make ricotta with the whey- here's what I do: ua-cam.com/video/XOLUzfAhueA/v-deo.html.
Have you tried whey caramel? OH MY goodness- so delicious! ua-cam.com/video/TZZvCNEKTBI/v-deo.html
This magic is not for the faint hearted, this type of patience is bigger than life omg❤
Hi Patrick,
True. Cheesemaking is a patient art for sure. But the rewards are so worth it! Thanks for watching :)

@@ewh88 No
@@djocharablaikan8601 "yes"
The process may be hard, but the result literally got me so satisfying.
It's worth it for sure!
Blessed are the cheesemakers.
Yes, indeed.
I'm pretty certain I've never seen cheese being made before now. After the last press I was expecting you to say "Okay, let's cut a piece and taste it" not "Okay let's vacuum seal this and put away for 6 months". :( I don't know if I would have the patience for cheese making, LOL, but that cheese sure looked good!
I know right? Not to mention the patience to wait to finish the video with the taste test included :). I had a 1/2 finished video in edit for what seemed like forever while I waited for the cheese to age. It was worth it in the end. This cheese was divine. I am so glad you found the channel!
Instant gratification is never a good thing
@@bdancestars Anything worthwhile takes time .😀
the cheddar cheese is great,sub and like,share
This is the first time viewing your channel and was very impressed to see how long it took to make cheddar cheese God bless you I would not even try to attempt making it for me the process is time consuming , but I really enjoyed seeing how to make cheddar cheese 🧀 and admire your patience.
