What sets this kit apart is that it's designed for making soft cheeses, which are the easiest to make. This makes it a go-to choice for those who love soft types or are eager to get the ropes of cheese making process. Making a classic soft cheese is easy and requires only full-fat milk, citric acid, and rennet. Except for milk, all ingredients come included in the kit, along with disposable latex gloves to knead and shape mozzarella and a drying cloth to remove excess whey from curds. What you need to do to trigger milk-to-cheese transformation is add acidifier and microbial rennet to milk. In a short while the bacteria growth and flavor development will start. As you can see, the process of making cheese is not difficult at all and requires 30 min the max. Each recipe shows the subtle changes that can be be made to ingredients and methods with the result of producing entirely different cheeses.

Leave the curds in the mould, turning it occasionally over the next 2-4 hours, till whey stops dripping. This step can be done in a quiet spot in the kitchen or in the refrigerator.The kit is designed to make 30 different cheeses and has enough ingredients to make each variety several times. Take the cheese from the mould and take it gently out the cloth. Leave it to dry at room temperature on a wooden plate over 2-4 days, so a rind can develop. During this time, turn the cheese a couple of times daily. Prepare brine using acidified whey. Do this by leaving the whey, covered, at room temperature for 12-24 hours. Add 125 gr. salt to 1 litre whey. You can also acidify the whey using lemon juice. Right off the bat, we need to say that this kit is rather basic and includes no additional tools and molds. However, it doesn't mean you won't be able to make cheese with it. If you've got a couple of pots and spoons, the rest will be easy. What we like about this cheese making kit is that it's not expensive but includes enough ingredients to make up to 30 gallons of produce, cheese or butter, depending on your needs.
