Excellent reference book for cheesemakers
To me the best book on cheese making. As a novice cheese maker I have read many books on cheese making. This book answered all my questions in a concise, informative and uncomplicated manner. A great reference for both amateur and experienced cheese makers.

Just what I needed
The book is very different as compared to what I expected. It is also very different as compared to a number of other books that focus on different recipes without giving the reader a better understanding of the science behind cheese making. The book is very well organized and covers a lot of the basics, including what happens at the different stages of cheese making including acidity levels, etc. Also, the unique feature of the book is that it does not focus on specific recipes for each cheese, but divides into categories of cheeses based on identifiable characteristics, such as washed curds, etc. It helps a beginner like me to understand what makes certain cheeses similar to others. Also, one of the things I have got from the book is that you need not be tied down to a specific recipe and it encourages the reader to experiment and learn by trying out different approaches. I think this gives a much more fuller understanding which I have not seen in several other resources. My biggest takeaway from the book is that when making cheese, the details, such as acidity levels, size and uniformity of the curd, the rate of heating, etc. are vary important and need to be fully understood to be able to make consistent, good cheeses.

Das beste Buch bisher!
Mit SEHR weitem Abstand das beste Buch zum Thema Käseherstellung, was ich bisher gefunden habe! --- Alle deutschen Bücher waren mehr oder minder ne schlechte Sammlung von "Rezepten" aus dem Internet. Teils mit fehlenden Mengenangaben und unterirdisch übersetzt. Dort wurden auch teilweise 130 Rezepte angepriesen, wobei sie fast identisch waren. Frischkäse mit Schnittlauch, dann wieder mit Knoblauch, dann Pfeffer (3 Rezepte)... Oder es gab Bücher die sehr allgemein über Käseherstellung sprachen oder Rezepte von Käse, von dem noch nie einer gehört hat umd die üblichen fehlten. Meist komplett ohne Bilder und mit riesengroßer Schrift, um die Seiten voll zu machen. Nun zu diesem Buch: Es ist leider auch keine Rezeptsammlung wie ich gehofft habe, sondern auch recht allgemein gehalten, dabei aber SEHR gut gemacht im Gegensatz zu dem deutschen Schrott. Sehr gute Erklärungen, hochwertige Bilder und viele Seiten mit normaler Schrift. Also wirklich INHALT! Es werden die einzelnen Schritte bei der Herstellung der verschiedenen Arten von Käsen detailliert beschrieben, inklusive PH Werte, falls die jemand wissen möchte. Allerdings wird mehr die Art der Käsesorte beschrieben. Also statt "Parmesan macht man so und so" Wird beschrieben, wie man Hartkäse macht und wie sich die verschiedenen Kulturen etc. auf das Endergebnis auswirken. Zwar nicht exakt, was ich gesucht habe, aber so gut, dass ich es als einziges Buch bisher nicht komplett enttäuscht zurückschicken werde!

This book is a must!
This book is a must for any home cheese maker. This is an amazing teaching tool for how milk can be turned into something as lovely as cheese. It reads more like a textbook rather than just a recipe book. The author takes the time to explain the how and why types of milk, temperatures, cultures and methods all affect the final outcome. The recipes and guidelines are clear and detailed. We have made several batches of cheese using her book and have had great results. Even when we had epic failures, we at least learned why. It has helped us gain more knowledge and certainly more confidence. We have found the author to be extremely approachable, if after reading and researching her book we still needed some clarification. So glad we found this book!
