So much information
This book is perfect. It talks an out all the equipment, product needed and offers a huge selection of recipes. I’ve only been making cheese for 1 year now and thrilled with all the new ideas in one great book.

Need an audio version for visually impaired.
So far, so good. Vast improvement over the previous dairy products book I was gifted. I'll edit after I get a chance to use it.

More cheeses than I've ever heard of. Great Book.
I like the list of recipe's available. Many I am familiar with and love, and many many more I've never heard of. So far, only done the 30-Minute Mozzarella recipe twice, but happy with the results. I also like the fact that they give you some ways to use the Whey (biproduct) after the cheese curds are removed. Kind of like that "nothing goes to waste" mentality if you're interested. I definitely recommend this book to other novices, such as myself for beginning your journey into Home Cheese Making.

Beautiful Book
Received this a couple of hours ago and skimmed through it for about 30 minutes. It’s everything I’d hoped it would be and more. This book is great for beginners and will challenge me to go much further than I dreamed. We’ll written and organized. It’s so refreshing that I don’t have to highlight hidden tidbits in order to find them later. Everything has a place and is in its place. Beautiful! Edited to say that I’ll be purchasing the hard cover of this book. I’ll use the hard copy to read and the soft in the kitchen. This book makes me all warm and fuzzy. I’m in love.

Read instructions carefully.
I love the book.The only thing I would change would be to put an explanation of how much ingredient is in a packet..Do not get the cultures in Canada in packets. I have made a few cheeses from this book.Just waiting for them to ripen.

New to cheese making
I made halloumi for the first time the other day starting with raw milk. The only other cheese I had made before this was from clabbered milk and I made cottage cheese (no culture or rennet). The halloumi is so delicious and perfect. So much better than store bought. Love this book. Also if you’re using raw milk you don’t have to use the calcium chloride in all the recipes. Also the halloumi turned white immediately when I put it in the brine. There were a lot of steps and I’m a very busy mum so it was time consuming but worth it in the end.
