Hey curd nerds, ready for another great episode?  Our guest this week is Nigel Laubsch from Perth in Western Australia. Nigel makes his own cheese at home, and also talks us through his process of making Chorizo sausage!

Listener questions include information about the types of whey that you can make whey ricotta with, determining starter culture types from different suppliers, and selling or bartering with goats milk.

Don’t forget that if you have any questions or comments, you can leave me a voicemail using the tab on the right-hand side of the blog. Also, if you think you have a cheese making story to tell, drop me an email. I would love to have you on the show.

Also, if you wish to receive the show on your portable apple device each time I release an episode, you can subscribe via iTunes.

This episode is all about starter cultures.  There are two main types, Mesophilic and Thermophilic.  But did you know that there are many different properties to these cultures. I attempt to explain these properties during the show.

Starter Cultures
For more information you can check more information at http://www.artisancheesemakingathome.com/pdfs/cultures.pdf

The cheese news for this episode is titled Cheese business saves dairy.  Kudos to Julian and Dianne Benson for saving their dairy farm during hard times and producing cheese with some of their milk.  You can read all about it at http://www.stockandland.com.au/news/agriculture/livestock/cattle-dairy/cheese-business-saves-dairy/2663753.aspx

Cheese of the episode is Cream Cheese.  You can find the YouTube video tutorial at this link: http://youtu.be/JW3NXgA2HYw.

Listener questions were about what is the process of drying after pressing but before waxing, where do I buy my cheese making supplies from, and what to do with oil after marinating feta.

Until next time curd nerds, Keep Calm and Make Cheese.

  • Number One Cheese Podcast
    October 14, 2023 by Gene 321 from Australia

    Inspirational, motivational, incredible knowledge of cheese history and production, a great teacher with a twist of Aussie humor and an all round nice guy who knows his cheese. I’ve been listening to Gavin for many years now and gained so much knowledge and inspiration from just listening to his podcasts. If you’re interested in cheese, Gavin is your man.

  • I am so hooked on cheese making now.
