Information

Round cheese mould 250 g: the low shape that ripens quickly

The curd is ready, the whey is drained, and there you stand with a lump that is supposed to become a cheese. The mould does the rest of the work. It presses the curd together, gives the cheese a surface it can ripen with, and lets the last whey drain away instead of pooling underneath. This round mould holds about 250 grams of finished cheese.

Makes cheeses of about 250 g
Whey holes in wall and base
Feet that keep the cheese dry
Food grade plastic

The mould is made from food grade plastic with no added colourants, so it gives off neither colour nor taste to the cheese. The round design is seamless with no sharp corners, which makes it easy to clean properly. Holes in the wall and base let the whey out, and the feet lift the mould clear of the liquid draining off.

Pro tip!
Line the mould with a cheesecloth before filling it. The cloth gives an even, close surface with no imprints from the holes, and the cheese releases without knocking or twisting. That is the difference between a cheese that looks homemade and one that looks made.

Features

  • Efficient drainage: Holes in the wall and base let the whey run freely away during pressing.
  • Feet that raise the mould: The mould stands above the drained whey, so the underside of the cheese stays dry.
  • Food grade plastic: Colour free plastic with no sharp corners, safe for long contact with food.
  • Long life: Takes washing and repeated use, and cleans up completely.

How to use

  1. Scald the mould in boiling water before use.
  2. Line the inside with a cheesecloth if you want a completely smooth surface.
  3. Fill the curd into the mould while it is still warm.
  4. Set the mould on a draining surface and let the whey run off.
  5. Turn the cheese in the mould after a few hours so it drains evenly from both sides.
  6. Take the cheese out, salt it, and let it dry before ripening or serving.

FAQ Frequently asked questions

Why does the mould need feet?

Because the draining whey has to get away from the cheese. If the mould sits flat on the surface, the base stands in its own liquid, and the underside stays soft and wet while the rest of the cheese dries. The feet lift the mould clear of what runs off.

How much milk do I need?

As a rule of thumb ten litres of milk gives around one kilo of firm cheese, and around one and a half to two kilos of fresh cheese. So for 250 g of firm cheese count on roughly 2.5 litres of milk, and a good deal less for fresh cheese.

Which cheeses can I make in it?

Fresh cheese, rennet cheese and firm cheeses that are pressed and ripened. The curd and the handling decide the result, the mould only sets the shape and how well it drains.

How do I clean the mould?

Rinse in cold water first, never hot, because hot water coagulates the milk proteins and sets them in the holes. Then wash with detergent and a brush, and scald with boiling water before the next use.
