My cheddar is on the drying rack. I have asked about your cheese cave before. I have so many questions! Do you ever have to turn on your coke refrigerator? Is your building climate controlled?

[@biegelfamily1512]

@@l2iowacowgirl893 hi! that's great you're making cheese! No, we don't turn on our coke refrigerator since the shop stays between about +8 and +12 almost all year. If we want certain cheese to stay cooler then we generally bring them into the house and keep them in the regular fridge.

[@JustTheGuy37]

@@biegelfamily1512 Hi, Love that KJB scripture intro :) I am just getting some supplies to start making my own cheese. I bought your book and Art of natural cheesemaking by David Asher.. Have you tried making a clabber culture out of your raw milk or Kefir culture?? I think that is the original ways cheese was done.. The cultures you buy in the bag are lab grown I believe? Have you ever listened to Peter Ruckman?

[@carolgreen5448]

Love your lifestyle and cheesemaking skills. As a Brit Leicester is pronounced Les-ter.

[@russelweideman]

There is a town in Western North Carolina called Leicester anybody from there pronounces it Lester. And to tell if you're from the area of you say Lester

[@PhyllisGeorgic]

Everyone has problems with the pronunciation I have heard enough Brits pronounce it Lester

[@patricehodge3535]

Thank you so much for this video. I recently became interested in cheesemaking and have been watching videos ALL day for two days straight. I saw many helpful and informative videos but just came across this one. I absolutely love the way you have incorporated real life (milking goats), family (little brother in the background) with the playful personality of two sisters. Thank you so much for sharing an experience which it seems that your entire family loves. It brings something new and special to those who want to learn to make cheese. Watching your video made me happy!

[@fourseasonsnorth]

So wonderful to hear! Thanks for sharing Patrice!

[@ajinpnw6221]

You girls are so entertaining and SMART! Loved watching you, I would of loved to see what it looks like final pull out of cave plus cave, how you remove mold.. maybe you have another video! 💕💕💕 new sub to you now! Thank you!

So glad I met Lynette and Bob today at Miette Hotsprings. So thrilled to find another family on the same page as us. Bless you all!

[@carolinepitts1169]

I just found you, and thanks, as a new cheese maker (age 70), I need direction and I find your way of teaching so comfortable. I made "cheese curds" for my friends in November in the guise of Poutain ( we live in North Carolina! No one knows Poutain) and I thought that the curds tasted just like cheddar. WELL! It IS CHEDDER!!! Squeek squeek! And although there are certainly Shenanigans to making it, I am excited to do it again as I've moved to My Friends Farm and am becoming the "dairy maid! 🐂 We have Jerseys A1B, and goats. So at my age I'm starting a new job and I love it! All because my dog needed fresh goat milk for yogurt for her stomach problems! 🐩😋Life is full of opportunities! 💃💖

[@seanalix9737]

Oh my that was wonderful, thank you so much! You included so many helpful details, can't wait to try-currently making your recommended Ibores! What cheese cloth do you use in the press, it looks different than butter muslin? Also what size is the pot? I think we need a larger one- As always, just a wonderful, fun video and the music and humor made it fun for everyone to watch, thank you!

[@fourseasonsnorth]

Thanks Alix fam! In the press we use a plastic Plyban cloth--this helps the curds to not stick, and makes a far more uniform cheese...with none of the wrinkles that can come from using a regular cheesecloth. You can get this cloth from cheesemaking.com or Hogger Goat Supply online. The size of our big pot is 8 gallons at the brim....couldn't do cheese without it! and it works great for making big Kombucha batches too :)
