$33.00

  • Hoop is 188mm diameter x 96mm high with base.
  • Consists of one hoop + one (one piece) end cap/follower.
  • Will require approximately 15 to 20 litres of milk but this will vary depending on cheese styles and yields.
  • A strong hoop suitable for all large, pressed cheese types e.g., Tomme, Gouda, Cheddar, Swiss, Parmesan.

Hint: Always keep curd warm prior to and during overnight pressing. If there is a thermophile used as a culture keep the curd into the mid 30’s C, if a mesophile keeps the curd into the mid 20’s C.  It is very important for conversion of the residual lactose into lactic acid.

Cheesemaking

Thank you for Your Interest in a Cheesemaking Course

Making cheese prior to the course is not essential but it is very strongly recommended. I have found that over many years of providing cheesemaking courses, having some basic cheesemaking experience before you get to the course is an enormous help with taking in the information provided at the course.

To help you start to make cheese at home, there are several kits available, starting from $60 plus postage. Each kit has detailed instructions so that you can easily make lots of cheese in your own home, without having made cheese previously. See the range of available kits here. You can easily add to the kits once you have completed the course.

As an incentive to start making cheese, I am offering you a 5% discount on the price of any of the kits (excluding postage) - Just add the kit to your cart and use the code KIT at the checkout.
