    Another inspiring video. I made a gorgonzola recently that was covered in blue mold, but the cheese didn't form the blue veins. I was disappointed until I tried the cheese...a taste of heaven on earth. Thank you for showing us another great cheese and the people who make it.

    Placing the slightly aged cheese wheel in a chamber vacuum will make the cheese swell from the pressure and basically fracture the interior and perforate the rind.
    I found this out accidently while trying to seal up some of my cheeses. It horrified me at first, but I've gotten accustomed to dealing with it.
    But in this video, this could be a real addition to the culturing of the mold into the interior of the cheese.
    Don't put the wheel in a bag, just expose it to the pressure.
    The cheese will collapse back on itself, but the interior fracturing will be accomplished.

    This is the blue cheese I love. When it is aged but not blue cheese. I know alot of people love blue veined cheese, but I couldn't get into it. I like a aged bitey tasty cheese. Brie, and Mercey Valley cheese which is very matured and crumbly. I will try any cheese though. This one looks good 24:40 that he cut open. I am not a hater of Blue cheese, I just find it is very overwhelming, But I guess I grew up without in my part of the world. What would be the mildest blue cheese you can buy in Australian supermarkets. I would like to build an infinity with this Blue Cheese.
