FAQ
Which milk should I use?
You can use fresh raw milk or regular whole milk from the store (pasteurized). Avoid UHT milk (ultra-pasteurized), as it will not coagulate properly.
How long does it take?
Making the fresh cheese itself often takes less than an hour. If you are making harder cheeses or cheeses that need aging, the process takes longer.
Is the rennet vegetarian?
Yes, the rennet included in this kit is microbial (vegetarian), so you can make cheese without animal enzymes.
