Cheese PressWell, my mystery purchase is a cheesepress. I've been hankering after one for many a year and have finally succumbed to a moment of frivolity 
Can't remember the last time I got so naughty with an order, I don't tend to do shopping so when the parcel arrived today Lloyd was FORBIDDEN to go near it because I WANTED TO OPEN IT MYSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, the kitchen table is now covered in cheesemaking equipment and mystery packets along with a book. But where is the idiots step by step guide to get me going???? Do I have a clue where to start?
Um no.
So if anyone has any ideas at all, answers on a postcard please.
Nansters, once you have a cheesepress it makes sense to have goats doesn't it............

either anglo nubs, or saanens......both give really creamy milk too

Very envious down here in this household but I keep saying to myself, "would I actually use it?"
I have allowed myself the ice cream attachment for my Kenwood and have yet to use that so don't think I would get away with sneaking anything else in just yet.

So ... if I also buy a cheese press, do you think DH will let me have my dream goats too?

I don't need permission, I just need enough land........

Same here Most of the farms around here are rented from Swindon BC, which means the farmers are not allowed to sublet a field to me 
Still one day I will find a bit of land close enough to home, so that even in bad weather I can still get to the field and all at a sensible price.
Have you put the cheese press together and had a fiddle yet?
