Wish I had seen this one first. My daughter now plays with the Lakeland kit in her Fisher Price kitchen and I have splashed out on a replacement. Even professional cheesemakers do things a little differently from each other, so it makes sense that each cheese kit will be a little different, too. For instance, some include tablet rennet (which needs to be crushed and diluted in liquid before using), while others include liquid rennet (which is easier to use, but can be inconsistent and has a much shorter shelf life).

Bought this kit for my Father as a new hobby for his retirement. The kit is very good and has everything you need to get started. Found a local diary (we live in the heart of Stilton Country so wasn’t hard to find) which sells fresh raw milk by the litre and started our first cheddar which is now maturing nicely in an improvised cave. Since then I have made our own simple curd cutter and invested in a soup kettle which makes the perfect bain marie keeping a constant 32C and slow rise to 38C for cooking the curds. 2 top tips I can give at this stage, 1: make sure everything you use or is nearby is clean and sterile 2: allow plenty of time as this is a process that cannot be rushed. I hope you all enjoy the art of making cheese as much as we do.
