Prompted by a voicemail from Wayne, I talk about how to add herbs and spices in cheese.  From chili, sage, red and green peppercorns, to cumin and caraway seeds, you can add a lot of variety to your cheese above and beyond the traditional recipes.

We skip the cheese news this episode to get through a few more listener questions.

Today we cover for following questions;

  • Denis asks about thermostats and whether you can use them for cooling and heating.
  • Brian asks how much salt to add to the Farmhouse Cheddar recipe.
  • Richard thanks me for providing all the free cheesemaking information on this site.
  • Christie asks how to combat a wet cheese fridge (see photo below)

  • Poppy asks if a cheese fridge needs to be so stinky that the cheese smell sticks to your clothes!
  • Celine ask what to do with her Stilton after the four days of turning is over.

Thanks for all the questions.  Don’t hesitate to leave a question via the Speakpipe tool below.

    Looking to take up cheesemaking sometime soon and this channel has provided all the information necessary to get started!

  • Great Resource!
    August 28, 2018 by olivestones from United States

    I have been learning to make cheese for the past year. Gavin's podcast and video series has been a tremendous resource for me. His love for the cheese-making craft is evident in the amount of research he will perform in order to answer a listener's cheese question. All thumbs up for the amount of time and energy he puts into his quality podcast! ...And he cracks me up with his attempts at pronunciation!
