Gouda wheel - six months of aging

[LoydB]

Apparently I never did a "making of" thread for this. It is a perfect Gouda, creamy and slightly sweet. Six months in the cave.

Nice job on the Gouda, spiced Gouda is one of my favorite cheeses to make. I haven't made cheese in a while but picked up 40L of milk this morning 5.7% MF still deciding what to make.

Looks tasty! Are you going to smoke any if it?

Looks great, I almost got into cheese making but started brewing beer instead.

Beautiful! I love visiting the markets in the Netherlands and trying the different kinds of Gouda. We may visit Gouda in March when we visit our daughter and granddaughter.

Thanks! What kind of spices?

Thank you. If it every gets freaking cold enough to cold smoke here, yes :(

Thanks! I homebrewed for almost 20 years (at peak had 5 kegs on tap at any time). That was back when I regularly had dozens of people over to play games, watch the Cowboys, jam, or whatever. When we moved and that tapered off, I realized I was gonna weigh 300+ pounds if I kept at it so stopped.

Looks really gouda!

Reported. :)
