    Does anyone know of a recipe similar to Zeigler Red Hots?

    Oh she's fine now...and back at work even though she'll be 81 this year! The woman is a MACHINE!

    Unreachable at the moment...too far down a rabbit hole!

    We have garden hose threads!! I found a thread profile/xml thingamajig (don't judge me...I'm learning!) and put it in the thread profile folder file under Fusion...works like a charm...AND IT FIT without any tweaking! :emoji_astonished: Hear that? That's me squealing like a 12 year-old at a...

    Does anyone know of a recipe similar to Zeigler Red Hots?

    I never got around to trying to make them...inadvertently ended up having to re-do my shop (went looking for a tool and down the hole I fell!) and then my Mom broke her hip which pretty much put the kibosh on everything until she got back on her feet (because, apparently, I have only one sibling...

    Unreachable at the moment...too far down a rabbit hole!

    I rec'd my 3D printer (Sovol SV06) 2 weeks ago today. QUICKLY realized I needed to learn a new CAD software, so I tried FreeCad, OnShape, and Fusion 360 (free version) and settled on F360 (a LOT more online tutorials/help), so after printing a simple small tool tray for my 3DP tools, a pencil...

    3D Printer

    Well, it came in yesterday (it was VERY easy to assemble/set up) and I did a 20mm calibration cube...worked perfectly. Today, I made a AAA battery holder in FreeCad and it's almost finished printing... One thing I can say is this...FreeCad ain't Sketchup! It's taken me since Friday to get...

    3D Printer

    I know this post is a few months old, but I need to ask a couple of questions before I pull the trigger on a 3D printer... You say you're printing accessories for cheesemaking (my most recent rabbit hole!)...are you printing molds? If so... Can you 3D print a HARD cheese mold? I understand the...

    Yes, I'm down another rabbit hole...cheesemaking!

    I'm aware of cheeseforum.org and agree that it's a treasure trove of info, but I REALLY wish the links provided in the posts were still good...all I get is a 404 error (I've yet to click a link that still works, even from "newer" posts). It's frustrating when someone says "Here's a pic of the...

    Yes, I'm down another rabbit hole...cheesemaking!

    Ne Neither do I, but my love of blue cheese is stronger than my impatience. Let me re-phrase that...my love of GOOD blue cheese is stronger than my impatience. HOWEVER, if this turns out tasting like feet, I will be SORELY vexed!

    Yes, I'm down another rabbit hole...cheesemaking!

    Just thought I'd add a few more pics of the blue's progression... Day 7 Day 8 Day 9 Day 10 I stopped taking pics at Day 10 as I cannot see much of a difference afterward. Gavin says to turn them once a week from here on out, but I'm still turning them daily (I'm scared to death I'm...

    DIY Dutch-style cheese press

    My HIGHLY-simplified Dutch-style cheese press. At 30" from the fulcrum, I tested it with 25lbs of hanging weight and I got almost 150lbs at the load arm (which what I was aiming for in the test) and it didn't bend/snap, so it appears to be accurate and that's all that matters (and it cost me...

    Yes, I'm down another rabbit hole...cheesemaking!

    Thanks! Cross your fingers with me that it doesn't turn out tasting like feet because I didn't use "proper" mold spores! I'm telling you now, this whole waiting-thing is gonna be a challenge for me...I am not known for my patience! :emoji_rolling_eyes:

    Yes, I'm down another rabbit hole...cheesemaking!

    I made a small batch of large curd cottage cheese (with culture/rennet) and it turned out surprisingly good, so I'm like WTH, let's do this! Using Gavin Webber's SIMILAR to Gorgonzola Dulce recipe (nod to the EU Cheese Police!), I made a 1 gal batch. I harvested my blue mold from a store-bought...

    God help me...

    Down another rabbit hole... I made the mistake of making homemade cottage cheese, which led to paneer, and queso blanco...next up, Bel Paese (can age in a regular fridge). Is there a cheese cave in my future? I think most of you already know the answer to that...

    My house smells like an Italian Grandma moved in...

    I just discovered pecorino romano...it was store-bought Cacio e Pepe (Bertolli) , but it was VERY good! Next time I go to Kroger, I'm gonna grab a wedge/block (how ever it's sold...I prefer to grate my own) and make it from scratch.
