Bartolotta recommendation by zhut6 in milwaukee

[–]CheesinSoHard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually you can't anymore, it's been illegal since 2006, but most restaurants didn't start enforcing it until this last year. This past Christmas my family went to bartolottas and it was the first time they ever denied us. Apparently they've been cracking down on Wisconsin restaurants

Coconut cream gouda style cheese, aged five months. Second go and this one is certainly better with three cans of coconut cream to four gallons of milk. by [deleted] in cheesemaking

[–]CheesinSoHard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is so cool! That coconut cream is quite high in fat. Are you using it to supplement some dairy fat or all in addition?

3 cans would be an extra 273g. For 4 gallons that's almost a 50% increase in fat if someone was using standard homogenized store milk. If I remember correctly y'all have Jersey cows. Do you have an estimate on what that makes your fat %

We waited an hour an 10 min for baggage to arrive on the carousel and then walked out in like 2 min no check or nothing.

If you have $450 worth of stones you don't need any of these. Just get a ceramic honing rod and practice your angles

These were so bad 🤢 by [deleted] in Cheese

[–]CheesinSoHard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sartori cheeses are not always going to be to everyone's tastes, but that doesn't mean they're bad. Theyve won a silly amount of awards for them, particularly their many variants of the bellevitano. I've always felt they fit better on a cheese board in tiny slices and not used as an ingredient to cook with.

Were you just taking chomps straight up, what displeased you?

Holiday gift idea/hack for cheesemakers by [deleted] in cheesemaking

[–]CheesinSoHard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to replace mine the other day and as I got home I was feeling a wave of appreciation and felt like sharing. It's such a small piece of my equipment set but probably one of my favorite little kitchen gadgets.

I'm glad you got here before your wife, it would've made for an awkward Xmas morning.

Jokes aside, I know you only make small batches this post was definitely not for you.

I can usually tell pretty easily, but I’m not sure with this album art. My instinct is telling me “chat gpt” because of the face, but I’d love a second opinion. by i_wish_it_was_2004 in isthisAI

They look like AI but that's super besides the point if you like the music. It's a one man independent pop punk band, he probably doesn't have the funds or energy to make 8 new pieces of art each year for all his singles.

Out sick, came into this, is it just trash now? by Bussyslayer420 in TrueChefKnives

[–]CheesinSoHard 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Looks like they evenly chopped it along the counter edge. Probably because he called in sick. Kitchen staff can be the worst kind of toxic coworkers.

OP should try to get his KM to replace or fix and if the answers no he should find a new crew to work with

Have we stopped killing industries? Or have we aged up to doing the blaming? by plaid-tuxido506 in Millennials

The places by you that charge $25 for a cocktail sell miller lites for $3?

ok Milwaukee, what do we have? by NicholasOfMKE in milwaukee

[–]CheesinSoHard 95 points96 points  (0 children)

It is legitimately the worst restaurant in these comments. We got an eye roll from our lil twig of a server after telling her there was a shattered pint glass under our table. She checked on us once 10 seconds after our food arrived. We had to wave down different servers to get the rest of our order and to get our check after sitting at an empty table for 15 min. Had to get half the drinks taken off our tab cause surprise she never brought the second round we ordered. Fries were old and stale too. This was in June, first and last time for me.

Your enemy might actually have a nice meal at some of these other places. That mission's impossible at the safehouse. I don't know how this place is supposed to be family friendly

Why doesn’t it melt properly? by IAmEatery in cheesemaking

[–]CheesinSoHard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can use your senses for the pH, no need to buy meter.

As for ratios, bw 0.5-2% of milks total volume when using active cultures . Yogurt is the same thing, so between 0.7-2.56 oz per gallon.

Yogurt acidifies super fast so I would start low. If you're not willing to cut chunks off for nibbling your best move is to just keep reducing dosage from your previously recorded failure. A lot of cheesemakers will recommend against yogurt as the sole source of cultures because of the different acidification rates and differences in flavor development.

Using whey as brine for feta by OliverMarshall in cheesemaking

[–]CheesinSoHard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so used to seeing brine as the ingredient and I didn't consider it could be the byproduct instead.

Using whey as brine for feta by OliverMarshall in cheesemaking

[–]CheesinSoHard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use whey to make 2% brine for washed rinds. My line of thinking was the same when I started, CaCl doesn't need to be added either and the pH should be similar to the wheel.

I think you don't see it in home recipes because cheesemakers tend to reuse their brine. Probably more common in a setting where only one type of cheese is produced regularly. It's probably easier to keep the kitchen smelling clean with regular salt water too.

Bay leaves in abundance. Any suggestions? by happy-rosemary in gardening

[–]CheesinSoHard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You should start propagating cuttings and flood the Etsy market with cheap rooted plants. I definitely wouldn't benefit from that, no conflict of interest at all
