Benefits of using LM 057

LM 057 is a ripening culture that has been developed to specifically assist in getting more blue veining throughout the cheese by developing gas and opening up the texture of the cheese.  LM 057 also adds a creamy flavour to the cheese. LM 057 is not a stand-alone acidifier culture and is used in conjunction with another primary acidifying culture eg M244 or Flora Danica.

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.
