This was my first time culturing a cheese with leftover whey from another batch, and it worked beautifully!

Since starting to make cheese, I realize I have lived my life in “cheese poverty” only buying the mass-produced supermarket cheeses. So I have recently been going to specialty cheese stores and buying cheeses I’ve never tasted before. Manchego is one of those I only tasted for the first time a couple months ago. Loved it so much I will definitely try making it. So thank you for this video, it is very timely and helpful.

I've used whey numerous times to re-culture a batch of chevre. I would do one batch one day, hang the next am, and use the whey in the next mornings milk plus a little rennet. I just tried adding back some whey to my clabber culture to help jump start it in my colder house. It definitely helped set a curd, but the next day it was back to the usual slower rate of my clabber before I added whey.

Jennifer, you made my favorite cheese. This is the cheese that I made more often than any other since I learned to make cheese. I am using the same recipe for NewEngland cheese supplies and to me, it is the cheese that never fails me. I wish I could make it with sheep milk, but I could not find any in my area. From my research about this cheese, I learned that it is an alpine type cheese, and the sheep milk can be combined with caw or goat. Also, the caw milk version is called Iberico or Hispanico. I used to make whey cultured cheeses for a little while, but not having my own cow, my cheesemaking is more irregular than yours. I went by the principle" mesophilic cheese with whey from mesophilic cheese", and thermophilic... you got the idea. I could not see a difference between cultured cheeses and whey cultured cheeses, so it is nice to try and save some money on cultures. Also using raw milk that naturally has meso and thermo strains, I believe you have both anyway. Enjoy your Manchego.

Hi Jennifer...plz do a couple of vlogs on using only yogurt to make different cheeses. Also in smaller quantities like from 1 or 2 litre milk. Also can you explain how can one measure fat and protein content in home made cheese like we make cottage using only yogurt and then I blend cottage with whey to creat a smooth cream like smooth cheese. Thank you

When I was making yogurt on a more regular basis, I would inoculate with whey all the time (and not be able to tell the difference). Same with wine, I would occasionally use a little bit of the dormant yeast from the wine going into secondary fermentation to inoculate the new wine going into primary fermentation. I haven't made cheeses back-to-back enough to use the whey. I have enough other variables going that I'm not sure I would be able to say "this was caused by using whey versus 'new' freeze-dried culture."

@stacybradt6793 3 месяца назад

You are such and energetic, adventurous free spirit and I love it! I will have to try a Manchego some time. Is it completely necessary for flavor to foster a natural rind or could I vac pack it after 4 weeks or so?

@jmilkslinger 3 месяца назад

You can absolutely vac pack it!

@nharmonynlibertyfarms577 3 месяца назад

I have been making cheese with the whey of previous batches. I was told it is called backsplash whey. I have used it to make different mesophilic culture cheeses. Mine are all still aging so not sure of the final outcome but they all look good.

@jmilkslinger 3 месяца назад

Yes, it's called backsplash! (Which always makes me think of kitchen wall tile, ha)

@karenesposito488 3 месяца назад

You can use the rind in soup.

@jmilkslinger 3 месяца назад

Yes, except the lardy basement flavor isn't one I particularly enjoy....😂

was the whey an acid whey in the granular one? It doesn't incorporate or melt as well.

@jmilkslinger 3 месяца назад

No, that was a regular sweet whey cheese.

Freeze it for culturing another cheese? I'm not sure, but I think so!

@amandaw30 3 месяца назад

All my cheeses get that gritty texture. Its mostly on the outside but then every cut surface will develop it too. I don't know if its an issue I have or if its just my cows milk? It has happened with all different varieties and when using different starter bacterias.

@jmilkslinger 3 месяца назад

Does the paste of your cheeses have a slight grainy texture? I'm trying to puzzle this one out...

@amandaw30 3 месяца назад

@@jmilkslinger It is in the paste too but much less. The edges are definitely the worst and then everywhere I cut they reform. From what I found they are likely calcium lactate crystals but I can't find any great advice about how to get rid of them. Apparently a lot of fancy cheese people like crystals in their cheese but I'd prefer to make cheese without them....then again I still like velveeta so I surely don't have a refined palette ;-)
