What do you pay for such cheese in France? The reason, is I was thinking of having a goat farm there. This one takes 6 weeks (over ripe Camembert ) - I know the official brand is protected, but I would be happy to make this cheese (for myself) and sell it (depending on demand from the local communities) . Thanks for your reply.
my cheese vendor always says that the "best before" date on their Camembert is more like a "don't eat before" date, because it reaches perfect creaminess around then.
That looks like the perfect cheese to dip some crusty bread into. I am starting to drool over here. I don´t think it is over ripe. I like it when it is runny with a little bit of center firmness. I saw you didn´t put them in the wooden basket they are usually in. I saw a video where they said they tend to loose their shape without them, but it seemed like your´s still managed.
I can't preach this enough times: Camembert is the easiest cheese I know how to make. If you're looking to get into cheese making, doing camembert or brie is so very easy, and you can see the result fairly soon after you've made it. Be very wary of black mold though. EDIT: Biggest problem I've had making these was the amount of salt used. But like I said, you master production fairly quickly with this type.

By the time you find & pay for raw milk here (USA) you have a significant investment, not even including the cheese cultures. But it does look delicious. And calls for home made crackers, btw.
I love Kim's wrapping technique! Can you do another video showing exactly how Kim does this wrap? I think I get the idea from this video, but Kim's hands are in the way of the important actions. A view from the opposite side/angle would have been perfect!
I'm so captivated by cheese making. I've been binging your videos for about two weeks straight. My wife even pokes fun at me. I would love to get into cheese making, but I don't know if I have the capacity right now. I have small children that take up all our time and very limited counter space. I have made farmers cheese (drier, crumbly version of cottage cheese) and buttermilk before, but they don't require any of the additives, such as cultures and all the other stuff you add tiny amounts of. It's definitely something I plan on doing in the future. I love the idea of gifting cheese to friends and family.
Do have a go! Camembert really is a simple xheese to make, and so deliciously rewarding. The magic of that fuzzy bloom appearing, and the mushroomy aroma, is extraordinary. I don't have any of these cultures, but I scraped about half a teaspoon of the bloom off a commercial French camembert, placed it into a cup of room temperature pasteurized milk overnight, then strained this into my raw goats milk in the morning, plus rennet. That's all there was to it, and it was superb. Eat it young and firm for the fresh mild mushroom flavour, or let it ripen through the various stages.
You should try. Even your failures are pretty good. When I first started I didnt have a good thermometer & some of my cheeses were grainy & hard - not in a good way. But every bit of it got used. On too of casseroles, underneath the mozz on pizza etc. BTW invest in a good thermometer.
@@GavinWebber you should make a video on making clabber cheese. That would be interesting because of how different it would be compared to the rest of your cheese videos.
Gavin I am so happy that we can now purchase from your store here in the US. You have a lot of items I can't find here or on line. I was purchasing all my gear and cultures from New England cheese and other suppliers on line but I can see a whole pay check worth of stuff I want on your site. Thanks!!!
This channel is brilliant. I’ve always been hit or miss with cheese, you’ve inspired me to sit down with a classic cheddar, I’m finding new love for it. Hopefully I can make my own someday
I have never and probably will never (at least not in the next 15 years) make chease, but I still do enjoy a lot your videos and have watched all of them.
sounds like a ready excuse to have another crack at this for a longitudinal taste series - week 1 version, week 2 etc. And btw, can recommend trying that oozy goodness on a freshly baked baguette and some cornichons.
Some thing I've been wondering about: Can you cultivate Peniciulium Candidum/camemberti and the geotrichum Candidum? With P. Rogueforte (Blue mold) you can just place a particularly blue piece of a previous cheese on a slice of sourdough (Real homemade sourdough so it is acidic, creating a selective environment) in a ripening box and let the bread go blue, then let it dry. crumble up the bread, and you have starter to use in the next blue cheese. I'll try to figure out how do do some thing similar with Camemberti.
I thought that once without any research, that you figure out their ideal medium, and just grow it on that. Let it eviscerate the food, dry and crumble. The only issue would be mutations causing undesirable flavors. Which is why you'd have to figure out their ideal medium to avoid such strains evolving I'd guess
I scraped a little of the white mould off a purchased or homemade Camembert, stir it into milk and allow to culture overnight, then make cheese in the morning. Works perfectly.
I made this for my first aged cheese, turned out fantastic (even though I didn't have the geotrichum, I just used a MM sachet of white mould culture). Another batch on the go today with the Geo!
I started making a blue cheese like this and it ended up turning out almost exactly like this. The blue stuck strictly to the rind and didn’t add much flavor but the inside so was pastey like this and it was fantastic.
bloody love cheese i do. just needed this pick me up to get me through my day. trying to be the life of the party with some authentic cheese. it will work. keep getting out there mate
Oh my god, my mouth is watering just looking at the cheese. I've never had camembert but it's so exciting and tasty to look at!!! Watching you eat was the best part, I swear 😋
I tried this 'Made By Cow' milk for the first time today. I've never seen such a strong curd! I swear I could have stood on top of the curd and it would have supported my entire body weight! I've never seen anything like it before! Incredible! I can only imagine what good raw milk would be like! This milk puts every other single shop purchased milk I have ever bought in the past to shame. I hope they can work out a way to bring the price down a little. At $7.00 for 1.5 Litres, it's certainly at the high price end. If I wanted to do a 10-litre make, it is going to cost me very dearly at just shy of fifty bucks, but it is starting to look like it just might be well worth it!
You know, I've never made cheese before and I don't know if I ever will; but I'm subbed bc I just like learning and watching you make cheese! Sometime's (like now) I wish I could have some through the screen. ;;
My first into to Camembert was through Miraculous Ladybug. There’s a character that loves the stuff. In the show, they make it seem super stinky and solid like a regular block of cheese. Needless to say, this video was not what I expected. But very fascinating! You make it sound and look so decedent!
The white mold bloom is actually kinda pretty looking haha. I'm not even into making cheese but I just watch channels about stuff I don't do interesting. It's just free information that I can take in and learn something from I guess.
Gosh, that looked absolutely fantastic. I've never had Camembert, but as you describe it, to me it sounds like a creamier more buttery Brie, which is an all time favorite cheese for me. Great videos Gav.
This is all that went through my head during the end of this video... C: Camembert, perhaps? O: Ah! We have Camembert, yessir. C: (suprised) You do! Excellent. O: Yessir. It's ah... it's a bit runny. C: Oh, I like it runny. O: Well,.. It's very runny, actually, sir. C: No matter. Fetch hither the fromage de la Belle France! Mmmwah! O: I...think it's a bit runnier than you'll like it, sir. C: I don't care how fucking runny it is. Hand it over with all speed. O: Oooooooooohhh........! (pause) C: What now? O: The cat's eaten it.
I'm confused. You have listed a 1/8 tspn of rennet at 1:44 mark, however when you pour in your rennet (3:43) you are using a 1/3 cup, and it's a lot more liquid than 1/8 tspn. How much rennet are you using here?
I make your Camembert monthly. It is the only cheese I make that is consistently perfect every time. This video only makes me hate the fact that I can't purchase milk like this in Canada!
As a professional chef myself I am looking for a good cheese recipe to put on our cheese trolley 😋and your Camembert looks superb 😍👍 I also make my own oatcakes and various types of chutney which would go well with your cheese.

i got starter colony from di-prox m 179 and by shop it was for this kinda cheese .so do i need to mix a bit of shop camembert in glass of milk to get penicilium and geotric molds or this will do ?

Hello Gavin Sir, Due to lock down in my country I do not have any access to Penicillin Candidum. Can I make Camembert or Brie without Penicillin Candidum?

Since raw milk will separate on its own at room temp could you use the curds from that as a starting point?
No, because what you have there is a lactic bacteria set cheese called Clabber
Ah ok so you could still make “cheese” from it but it would end up being a different type.
