Cheese Making Kit - Around the World in 20 Cheeses

I bought this as a gift for a family member. They love how easy it is to make and the instructions are clear and easy to follow.

Giving it five stars it look OK but I bought it for a gift

Good

Excellent gift idea. Well thought out.

I got this product just for fun. I think it is helpful for my children to understand where their food comes from, and I wanted something constructive and interesting to amuse them over lockdown. I have never made a cheese before in my life, and I fully expected this to be a complete disaster, but I was both wrong and surprised. The kit has everything you need (except milk, and basic kitchen gear) to make cheese from scratch. There is a nice recipe book, and one about the basics of cheese and the history. With the help of a couple of YouTube videos, the boys and I, on our first attempt, actually made mozzarella and ricotta cheese. The boys enthusiastically demolished the mozzarella- it was very tasty. I am making stuffed pasta shells with the ricotta tonight. So, easier than expected. Got the boys off their devices and doing something constructive and interesting. We learned a lot, and had a load of fun. This is well packaged, and good value for money. I would definitely recommend it, and I plan on getting some for Christmas gifts next year for friends. It was a great family activity. My only criticism is that the thermometer was a bit small for me to read clearly. I used my digital one, which made everything really easy. I have attached some photos of our mozzarellas, and the ricotta draining. I would definitely recommend this- it is a great introduction to cheese, and we really enjoyed it.

Quite disappointed in the size of the kit, have seen better ones since I bought this and at a better price. The quality seems nice though.

It's very tasty, just what I ordered.

A great kit for the price compared to others out there. It arrived quickly and the recipe book gives much more choice of cheeses to make than other kits. The only reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is because the instructions are a little sparse in places. E.g it says dissolve the critic acid in 50ml water then dissolve the rennet in 50ml water, but these need to be different 50mls not the same, and it doesn't say that. Likewise at one point it said heat curds to 40 degrees. But how long do you keep it at 40? Do you leave it on the warm hob or remove it from the heat etc. So it could be a little confusing for beginners who don't already have a feel for the cheese making process. However, the kit is informative, enjoyable, and has what feels like a fairly generous quantity of the dry ingredients compared to others out there, so I recommend.

Mancano le istruzioni in italiano, come comunque è descritto

Super Geschenkidee oder für den Anfänger .

Probabilmente sono per la casa di Barbie.
