    Hello Gavin. It was lovely meeting you last weekend and I really appreciate you letting me pick up my supplies!
    My family and I (me obsesively) are enjoying your videos and podcasts since stumbling upon them about a month ago! I have just finished listening to all your podcasts!
    My question is about beeswax. My Dad has bees and we just brought home a couple of kilos of beeswax and would like to use it! We will be filtering it as it’s fairly messy but wondering if anything else needs to be done or added before I can wax cheese with it?
    Thanks very much for sharing your knowledge and passion for cheese making!

      Hi Maree, the pleasure was all mine. Beeswax is a great product for cheesemaking. All you will need to do is filter it as you intend to do, and before waxing the cheese, make sure that the temp of the wax is about 90C. This will kill any pathogens that may be lurking in the wax.

      I better get recording and publish some more episodes then 😉

    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!
