How to Make Butterkase
Have you heard of Butter cheese? When you try it, you will wonder, "where has this been all my life?" Butterkase is a delightful German cheese - soft, creamy and buttery. It’s a great everyday cheese and is sure to be a crowd pleaser! Give this one a try. It really does live up to its name! It has a short aging time- just 4 weeks, so you won’t have to wait long to enjoy it.
Happy cheese making!

Hi. No i did not except for one thing. My milk was raw and the buttermilk was from the store aswel was the cream. Both were at room temp before i added it. I cut it open and the white was not on the inside. It actually looked like cooked white from scrambled eggs. It smells fine and is fine on the inside. I vacsealed it. Ill try it in 4 weeks time and let you know.

It could be butterfat from the cream that didn't get absorbed into the cheese. It's hard to tell without a pic, but I think you were right to carry on. Fingers crossed for a great outcome in 4 weeks! Lisa

@followme8238 3 года назад

Nice recipe and helpful video! One suggestion - the holes in the top plate of your press could be drilled a lot larger. That will make it easier to slide the plate on the threaded rods. Plus it will ensure that the plate “free floats” and isn’t bound up on any of the threads - meaning all downward pressure is applied to the cheese.

@Cheese52 3 года назад

Good suggestions. Thanks!

@susanp.collins7834 Год назад

I was thinking the same thing myself. As long as those weights are on top there's no need to hold the top plate down with butterfly nuts.

@jonl.garton4616 5 месяцев назад

The cat is such a nice addition, and the voice for your cat is perfect. I mentioned to you earlier that I wanted to wine soak this cheese in Port wine. I want to do this next week. Would the wine soaking take place immediately after the brining?

@Cheese52 5 месяцев назад

Hello! Thank you! My niece has the sweetest little voice, and she was perfect for the role :) She tells me I made her famous :) I would wait a day or two for it to dry after the brining step, then soak the cheese using the wine soak method I outline in the Wine Soaked Tuscan recipe. I don't think that soaking it immediately after the brine step is the end of the world, but I do think developing a bit of a rind before the wine step is a good idea. Have fun with the recipe and happy cheesemaking! Lisa

@Cheese52 3 года назад

Hi Pam, Goof question. Yes, the half and half is ultra pasteurized. Here in the states, pretty much all of the cream sold in grocery stores is. Too much ultra pasteurized milk/cream doesn't work in cheese recipes, but 1/2 cup of cream in 3 gallons of milk is ok, it's pretty diluted. (For those who may be unaware, UHT milk isn't suitable for cheesemaking because all of the good bacteria needed to make cheese is killed off.) So glad you enjoy the channel! Thanks for watching!

@samhouston5217 2 года назад

Hi again, Great video, as usual. Thank you for posting these for us novices. I'm considering making this Butterkase. looks good and less cave time, lol. I've seen other recipes with just themo. you're using meso (Butter milk) and using 1/1 and 1/2 cream (I assume for fat which is a great idea). Why meso at all? more creamy? IDK I'm still learning.

@Cheese52 2 года назад

Hi Sam, It's a great question. Recipe writers use time, temperature, cultures, rennet types amounts, aging style etc. to approximate what, in their mind a cheese should be. That means recipes may differ, but may achieve a similar, or at least comparable result, assuming they are trying to replicate a similar product. I use both meso and thermo. The meso starts the acidity sooner, while the thermo takes over later. I like the flavor profile of both meso and thermo combined in this cheese, and the texture, for me it spot on. Much more goes into flavor aroma and texture development, but the use of two cultures is part of the strategy. I made a wheel for Carl's family for Christmas, and they tell me I nailed this recipe. It reminded them of home🇩🇪. Hope that helps! Lisa

Hi Mimi, Buttermilk can be used as a replacement for mesophilic culture at the rate of 1/4 cup per gallon. Yogurt can be used as a replacement for thermophilic culture at the rate of 1/4 cup per gallon. Typically, I use 1/8 tsp of culture per gallon of milk in my recipes, although some of my recipes do deviate from that , depending on the flavor profile and acidity I am trying to build in the recipe. I hope that helps! Lisa

Dear Lisa The only fresh milk available to me is the homogenized milk. What difference will it make in the taste?. Do I have to change something in the process?.

@Cheese52 3 года назад

It will not be as flavorful as farm fresh, but many people use it with reports of great success! Pasteurized is fine, just not ultra pasteurized or UHT. Check the label carefully. During the coagulating phase you may need to wait an extra 10 minutes or so to get a firmer curd. Other than that, everything else stays the same. Hope that helps, and happy cheesemaking!

Did I miss the place where you said which thermophilic culture you used?

@Cheese52 7 дней назад

Hi Gina! This is a great question. Any thermophilic culture can be used in this recipe. Different species blends/commercial brands may result in a different taste, but any one out there will do the job! I like the flavor this one provides: cheesemaking.com/products/thermophilic-starter-culture-for-cheese-making?aff=35 (affiliate link). The cultures in this blend are: Streptococcus thermophilus Lactobacillus helveticus Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. lactis NECM ships to many countries, but sometimes the overseas shipping can be very expensive. You can use this list of bacteria to help you find something similar in any cheesemaking store. Each company has its own proprietary blend of strains of bacteria, but this should get you close.

@glenncochran4619 Год назад

I love the taste of this cheese but mine turned out very crumbly. Could not slice it. Any idea what happened????

@Cheese52 Год назад

Hi Glenn, It is possible too much moisture may have been driven out from the curds or cheese. Here are some moisture control points to consider for your next make: 1. The curd mass was set up well. If it is a little slushy, or there wasn't a clean break, too moisture can be lost from the curd mass at the cutting stage 2. Temperature control during the cooking stage. Heating the curds too quickly or overshooting the temperature can cause a skin to form on the outer surface of the curd, which would trap whey and could cause the cheese over- acidify (could cause a crumbly texture). Overshooting the target temperature could drive out moisture and shrink the curds prematurely. 3. Curds cooked too long at the cook stage. The cook time is an estimate. Try to cook the curds to the point that they have the texture of fluffy scrambled eggs. 4. Pressing too heavily, too quickly can drive out too much moisture. Be sure the pressing schedule starts very lightly, and gradually moves up (all recipes can benefit from this) 5. Salting drives out moisture. If the brine percentage was too high, and/or the cheese was in the brine too long, it can affect the texture. 6. Excessive drying before aging. The cheese should be dry enough to vac pack or wax, but not so dry that it cracks before it is aged. Press a paper towel with your hand on the surface of the cheese for 20- 30 seconds. If no moisture was absorbed into the paper towel, it is dry enough to the touch. Have a look at this list, see which ones you think may have affected your texture, and try again. Keep good notes and happy cheesemaking! Lisa

When making a cheese that requires an extended period of stirring, I use a StirMate device. I would like to get your opinion of the device

@Cheese52 2 года назад

Hi Bob, I haven't used one, so I cannot speak from experience. But from those I know who do use one, the reviews are mixed. Some report having a hard time stabilizing the device in the pot, and others report that it doesn't stir as evenly as they would like. I prefer an up/down stirring motion to ensure all of the curds are cooking evenly, and this device stirs around and around, so I am not sure it would do the job. That's my 2 cents. Lisa

@bobalbers8666 2 года назад

@@Cheese52 Sorry for not getting back sooner. I have never had a problem with stability. Hearing that from you makes me wonder about the geometry of the pot. As for stirring in circular motion rather than up & down, the paddles seem to generate enough turbulence in the whey so as to prevent the curds from settling on the bottom. Isn't that the real objective of stirring? I find your videos entertaining & educational. Between you & Gavin Webber, its hard to pick a favorite

@Cheese52 2 года назад

@@bobalbers8666 Mhmm. About the stability of the pot- that is a good point. Perhaps those that do not appreciate the device have some issues with that. The manner in which the paddles move the whey would seem to be able to churn the bottom to the top, in the way you are describing seems like it would do the job!

@blockchaineducationmanager5808 Год назад

I just heard something that was very confusing. You said in the video that this was the first time you added the rennet after you heated the milk? But adding the rennet is the last step in the cheesemaking, so everything else has to be done before the curds start to form. AFTER all the other things have been added. The milk HAS to be heated before you add the rennet, otherwise, when would you add your culture? To cold milk?? No - the milk is ALWAYS heated first, then the culture(s) are added to acidify the warm (102-105 F milk), then calcium choride, then rennet. After that, curds form and you are starting to make cheese. The thermofilic cultures are named that, before they work at certain temperatures. If you added thermo culture to cold or room temp milk, what would you have? Probably just some cultured milk.

@Cheese52 Год назад

Hello, I'm sorry you were confused! Of course, the milk is heated at the acidification stage (in this video it was to 86F). Typically, the coagulation stage is done at the same temperature as that of the acidification stage. In this recipe, the milk is heated to the cooking temperature first, then the rennet is added. This is somewhat unusual as rennet does it's best work at between 86 and 90F. To be clear, there are 2 target temperatures in this recipe. The first is 86F for the acidification step and the second is 105F for the cooking stage. Thermophilic cultures can withstand temperatures much higher than that of mesophilic. Mesophilic cultures stop multiplying at 102F, and die at 113F. So the buttermilk cultures (which are mesophilic) passed the baton to the thermophilic cultures at about 102F. The thermophilic then began to multiply as the temperature rose. Regarding the comment about the cultures and cold milk- It would take them a very long time to pass through the lag phase of bacterial growth at cold temperatures, but they would eventually move to the logarithmic phase, even if they remained at colder temperatures. Time and/or temperature change is what the need to begin the logarithmic growth snowball. Most recipes assist the transition from the lag to logarithmic phase with a temperature change at the cook stage. This recipe is solid. Give a try! You won't be disappointed. Thanks for watching:) Lisa

For a buttery taste you need a special culture that leaves diacetyl behind. But even in Germany the cheese today hasn't a really buttery taste. On the other hand diacetyl is somewhat in bad reputation today because studies found some negative effects on humans. Can't remember if its toxicity or cancerogenic. But in these small amounts I wouldn't care at all.
