    Great aging containers

    Posted by Becky R on 14th Jun 2023

    I highly recommend these containers. My very first Camembert were perfect, and I attribute this to having great equipment! Easy to maintain moisture while still keeping cheese away from any accumulating whey.

    plastic aging container, draining platform and mat

    Posted by David McMurray on 29th Nov 2021

    Last year I used a draining mat to make camembert. I didn't read the warnings and sterilized it in boiling water. That twisted the mat up for good. Won't do that again. While I was buying it, I also purchased an aging container and the draining platform. They should do the job for me. I'll let you know after I make my first camembert of the winter season. Here in Western Oregon I can put two rounds in a container and stick it in a cupboard out on my patio and it will work without much interference from me because the outdoor temperature averages about 45 degrees with 80-90% humidity. That average holds more or less from December through February. Perfect for cheesemaking!

    Perfect for the task

    Posted by Eric on 11th Oct 2020

    Perfect size for two Camemberts. With a damp paper towel tucked away on one side the box maintains ideal humidity while the plastic grid protects the cheeses from getting wet.

    Worth it

    Posted by Natalie on 9th Jul 2020

    I bought both sizes. They were perfect for Camembert! Kept the cheese well above the floor of the container. Much more convenient than trying to assemble all the pieces separately from items lying around the house. Definitely recommend

    aging containers

    Posted by Paul M Thomas on 6th Jun 2020

    I wish these came in a slightly smaller size. They won't fit in my wine frig so I'm using cling film for the top. Have yet to try "shaving" some plastic and that is next. Otherwise a nice bundle to get the job done.

    Definitely worth it

    Posted by Natalie on 9th May 2020

    I got one of each size. Perfect for the Camembert and I used the largest one to dry my feta. Very handy and worth the price! I may even get a second set :)

    Great aging containers

    Posted by Jim on 15th Sep 2019

    If you are starting out in hard cheese making you need at least 1 or 2 of these. The bamboo mats and plastic grates are perfect for the job.

    Perfect for my cheeses before they are wrapped.

    Posted by dan on 16th Oct 2018

    This is a great product. It fits three camembert size cheese. It allows the cheese to drain, yet keeps the atmosphere surrounding the cheeses at the right humidity. And they can be stacked in the frig or aging area. Perfect. I really don't have a need for the bamboo mats. Maybe I can use them for sushi or placemats...but the aging container is spot on and makes my cheese making easier.

    Great combination

    Posted by Chris Snyder on 19th Aug 2014

    This is a great combination for any cheese maker. I use it for mold ripened cheeses in the cheese cave. I use it to drain when from hooped harder cheeses. the mats and grid hold the cheese from any moisture. A great combination.
