The Manufacturing Process

Cheesemaking

The art of cheese-making has evolved over the centuries and personal recipes have been passed down through generations. Whilst cheese is a relatively straightforward process, the skill and craft of the cheesemaker is of paramount importance to the final product.

The basic method of cheesemaking:

1. First select the finest quality milk, be it from a cow, goat, sheep or buffalo.

2. Run the desired milk into the vat

3. Check the temperature

4. Add the starter & rennet

5. After a short while cut the coagulum

6. Stir the mixture & add salt

7. Cut the curds and allow to drain

8. Press the curds into moulds & allow to firm and settle

9. Turn out of the moulds

10. Allow to mature at the right temperature and humidity to final perfection
