Q: How much cheese does this culture make?

Yield will vary depending on what cheese you're making, how long you strain the curds, what type of milk you use, etc. However, generally with 1 gallon of milk, you can expect about 1 lb. feta, 5 servings pepper jack, or 1⅓ lbs. cottage cheese.

Q: Do I need any special equipment?

For most cheese, no—everything you need is probably already in your kitchen: a large stainless steel pot with lid, a non-aluminum mixing utensil, a thermometer, a cheesecloth (butter muslin or tight-weave towel can also work), a colander, and a bowl.

Q: What kind of milk should I use for cheesemaking?

Cheese can be made using almost any type of animal milk: cow, goat, sheep—even mare or camel. Unhomogenized milk is preferable, but you can absolutely use pasteurized, homogenized milk as well. The only kind we never recommend is ultra-pasteurized.

Q: How long will the finished cheese last?

Your cheese will last 7–10 days in the fridge and 6–9 months in the freezer. Make sure to get some cheese salt (non-iodized salt) before freezing. It's a good idea to have cheese salt around anyway, as it enhances the flavor and helps it last longer.

Q: What should I do with the leftover whey?

Don't just throw it out! Whey can be used as cooking liquid for potatoes, rice, grits, pasta and grains; as a starter culture for fermenting vegetables; as a nutrient boost in smoothies or drinks; to make whey cheese; or added to compost.
