There are many gourmet home cheese makers from all over the world who enjoy creating cheeses. Besides producing great snow for skiing, Colorado is home to Fred B. who started making homemade cheese recently. Below is his first attempt at making homemade Camembert Cheese.
Steve,
I made the two camembert cheeses yesterday and I'm very happy with how they look this morning. The book you wrote has very clear with explicit instructions so I was successful on the first try. the steps were easy to follow and my resulting product looked just like the pictures in your book. My refrigerator won't go any higher than 38 degrees so I'm using my garage for the 42-48 degree ripening process. That works fine in Colorado in the winter. I will have to get a cheese ripening refrigerator for the garage for the summer. I have been a cheese lover for many years. My first trip to France taught me what cheeses can really be like and how wonderful and different they can be from most American made cheeses. I have long wanted to make my own cheese and you have opened up a whole new world for me. I can't thank you enough. I have ordered more cultures so I can keep a good supply of cheese rotating. I'm sure I will be a customer for a long time.
Many thanks,
Fred B.
