In this home cheesemaking tutorial, Mary Anne shows you how she made the Brie cheese that was voted "best tasting" in the previously published Brie Judging video, shown here: • Which Brie Recipe Made...
Using cows' milk, salt, and some bacterial & fungal cultures, Mary Anne shows you the recipe, tools and technique for making a delicious & authentic tasting Brie cheese at home that you can be proud of. The Brie recipe demonstrated here is a firmer-style Brie that has a fresh, mushroomy aroma and a delicious creamy, slightly salty, interior. (By making a firmer-style Brie cheese, each piece will hold its shape better when the wheel is cut into individual pieces.)
Mary Anne shows you all the steps to make Brie at home from stirring and inoculating the milk, to flipping & salting, and "affinage" cheese care. Finally, she does a cheese tasting and evaluates the taste and texture of her Brie cheese.
She also shares pictures submitted by other home cheesemakers of the Brie cheeses they made in order to show that many other people around the globe are undertaking this new and exciting hobby! Give it a try and join a growing group of home cheesemakers!
Making cheese at home is not as hard as you think. Mary Anne's RU-vid series @GiveCheeseaChance shows you that making cheese at home is easy if you follow some instructions with the right ingredients & tools. Other cheese recipes in this video series include how to make Labneh, Yogurt, Valencay, Crottin, Nabulsi, Ricotta, Mozzarella, Mascarpone, Boursin and Colby. C'mon, give home cheesemaking a chance!

Brie cheese is my guilty pleasure. I don’t think that makings an entire wheel would be a good idea for me but I am gonna do it anyway 😂. This was a wonderful tutorial thank you 😊.

I am glad you liked it! You may be interested in making smaller camembert-style cheeses if you find making a larger wheel of brie daunting. Here's how to make them (they are so delicious!): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eraErhNUdTA.html

@jacksprat429 9 месяцев назад

What an excellent tutorial. When you stored it to start maturing, it made so much sense for the cheese to be placed on a grid, to allow the Brie to breathe on both sides. In previous tutorials that I have watched, the Brie was just placed on the mat, which did not allow air circulation underneath, which didn’t make any sense to me, and then the cheese got stuck, and also didn’t make the mould as easily. So thank you for explaining this so well.

I really find your videos entertaining and informative and I think you have your format just right. Keep going! We need as many great cheesemakers as we can get on the Tube. I would also suggest that you not be afraid to make the same type of cheese more than once, using different takes on it. A lot of the cheese channels make one video per cheese and then run out of content. I could see 20 videos on cheddar alone, examining different aspects of the process and comparing varied process parameters. Imagination and experimentation is what is missing from the cheese video world.

@GiveCheeseaChance 2 года назад

Hello Bruno. What a lovely compliment to give. Thank you for taking the time to write it. One thing to watch for, since you are in Australia...not all homogenized milks around the globe are the same (I have learned). For example, in the USA, their homogenized milk behaves differently during the cheesemaking process than that sold in Canada. If you can find unhomogenized milk, the recipe works even better.

@GiveCheeseaChance 2 года назад

@@brunocords8766 Sorry for the delay in responding. What was the diameter of the mold you used? Was it not wide enough? Is that why the cheese is very thick perhaps? I think you should proceed with the recipe. It will continue to lose moisture while in the ripening box. Make sure there is enough air flow around the cheese to dry it up a little. Remove any liquid daily from the bottom of the ripening box especially the first few days because it will continue to drip. I think your cheese will be fine! This cheese tends to have a firmer paste but the flavour is amazing!

Thank you for all of your wonderful videos on cheese making. One of my favorite party treats is to bake (chilled) brie in croissant dough and then drizzle with a bourbon-apricot sauce. I think brie #1 might work best for this. I am wondering though, have you ever considered making a video of all the best methods to store different types of cheese once they have "ripened" or have been opened? You are so good at explaining. :-) Also, a video that lists all the tools necessary to make different types of cheeses would be nice. Ha, I am so greedy! Last thing, a submersible precision cooker works well to keep a water bath at a desired temperature.

I loved this video - thank you. I love the part where you taste it and swoon. I'm looking forward to that moment myself. I have my first wheel of brie sitting on my counter and can't believe it. It's so beautiful and was so easy to make. This could be my new favorite. I have a question - after that first 2 week period where the fuzz develops, do you HAVE to put it in a colder fridge, or can you let it continue to ripen up a bit more quickly in the cheese cave?

@GiveCheeseaChance 2 года назад

Hey MindoPod. That's fantastic that you have a brie cheese aging. The answer to your question is "No, you do not have to put the cheese in a 4C/40F fridge. You can let it ripen at a warmer temperature in your cheese cave." Personally, I don't like to hasten the ripening process because the sooner they ripen, the sooner they over-ripen. By slowing down the ripening process, the longer I can enjoy the cheese in the months ahead.

@willemdamper9718 6 месяцев назад

I like your explanation. it is clear and easy to use for home cheese makers. I just have some remarks for you, what can make life more easy in making cheese. )) Calcium- use 2.5ml per 5L of milk. not only past. milk, but also fresh milk in wintertime. Cheese salt- lol never knew they sold it like that. It is nothing else than salt without iodine. so buy cheap salt without iodine. Renet, you can use your tablets. i prefer liquid renet as it also gives a taste. 1 ml per 5L. Now the more cheesemaking part. I see you use Danisco. if you use strong professional cultures from Danisco or Hansen, 30 to 40 min is enough. Now the renet end time to set. This can be different for most people. So try to use a timetable. X3, this means when setting sets in at 15min, your curd will be set at 45min. Use a table spoon and look after 15 min when you gently touch the milk with the back of the spoon if it leaves a track. as soon as you can see the track you can calculate your setting time. Adding your cultures bacteria etc. Take a full cup of milk. (i always use 1L) warm it up to 34degrees Celcius and put in your culture and bacteria or fungus. leave your starter for the time you heat your milk. and add it when your milk has reached the wanted temp. Now some tips ))) Warm your milk tot 34 degrees celcius. The reason why is that you want your curd to set at minimum 29 degrees celcius. and from the moment you start adding your culture your milk is cooling down slowly. Now stirring.... when you add your renet, just stir gently for 10 sec.... we love the milk to be calm. ))) Trust me, it is enough. Keep making cheese))))

@stanleynelson5102 Год назад

Great presentation. You've laid out the steps in a manner that are easy to understand and have given me the confidence to give Brie a try. I do have a couple of questions though. How do you store your open packages of culture and mold? And since I have smaller molds, I assume my drain and flip time intervals will probably be shorter? That's something I'll have to figure out on my own.

@GiveCheeseaChance Год назад

Hello Stanley. I use long thin clamps to close my freeze-dried culture packages once I have opened them (I got these clamps from IKEA). I keep them all together in a zip lock bag in the freezer. If you are making this recipe in smaller sized molds, do not change the drain or flip times at all--they should stay the same. However, you will find your cheeses may ripen faster since there is more surface area (they ripen from the outside in). I hope this helps!

Hi Jean! You can add some cream to the recipe to make a higher fat Brie, but be careful what cream you buy. You don’t want a cream that has any additives or thickeners, because that will make the curds harder to drain.

@montana_garage 10 месяцев назад

You'd be surprised by the historical controversies surrounding cheese cutting. The Romans worked out how to properly cut Parmesano cheese over 2000 years ago in response to customer disputes over how much rind versus paste a cut of cheese had. As a result, it is well-entrenched in Italy what the proper ratio of rind to paste should look like and everyone understands this intuitively. There is method (and history) behind the madness of cheese cutting.,

Hello Gabriel, It's hard for me to know because I am not there to smell it, but yes cheeses give off various odours and brie is no different. Your cheese's ripening box should be opened at least once a day so that the gases given off by the cheeses can be removed and fresh air can come inside.

I am very interested in having a go - thank you so much for your videos. Can I ask what device you have to keep the milk at the right temperature while waiting for the curds to form?

@GiveCheeseaChance 9 месяцев назад

After I heat the milk to the target temperature, I don't do anything to keep the milk at that temperature. The mass of milk seems to keep its temperature very well. This ability of the milk to keep its temperature becomes quite apparent when you accidentally over-heat milk; to my annoyance, it doesn't cool down quickly at all! This being said, I still monitor the temperature of the milk periodically, but I rarely have to put on the stove for longer than a few seconds to bring it back up to the right temperature. My kitchen temperature is the standard 21C/72F so the temperature of the milk doesn't move much in a hour but if your kitchen's temperature is much cooler, you may have to add a little heat for a few seconds now and then.

Hello just found your channel and love all the different cheeses. One question. With all your recipes can goats milk be used. We have pure Nigerian goats which have a much richer milk than most. Thank you and good job with your videos.

@GiveCheeseaChance Год назад

Different milks behave differently. You can make cheeses with different milks but you will have to alter the recipe. For example, different milks will give you different yields of curd because of different amounts of fats and proteins in cow vs. sheep vs goat vs buffalo milk, etc. If you all salted them with the same amount of salt, they would all have differing salt levels (i.s. salt/volume). That is just one example to illustrate how you'd have to modify the recipe if you are substituting a different type of milk. Even the coagulation time would be different. You can go ahead and try and play with a recipe though.

Hello! If you have started to see the white mould growth, then it is just a matter of days for the whole thing to be covered. I would wait until the happens before it is wrapped.

I have seen small versions of brie (mini-camemberts actually) soaked in alcohol but the cheeses were made and aged as normal procedure and then soaked in alcohol only after they were matured.

@GiveCheeseaChance 10 месяцев назад

The next best thing to cheese paper would be to use wax paper and wrap it loosely and keep it in a small box with a lid, opening it daily. You still want to keep the cheese in a humid environment so it doesn't dry out. Alternatively, you don't have to wrap the cheese, however you will need to pat down the fungal coat now and then, and still keep it in a small plastic container to keep the humidity high so it doesn't dry out. Cheese paper really is the best, but if you don't have that, you just have to improvise with what you do have.

Your dedication and clear instructions are incredible! You are such a kind lovely person. Second, I'm wondering if I can get your insight on something. ☺️ I have been using the 8" mold just like yours, but now have wanted to make smaller sizes of Brie. I have 3 1/2" molds and 6" molds. Will the draining time, frequency of flipping and/or the maturation time in the fridge differ from from the original process of handling the larger cheese? Is the process the same? Or should I cut the timing down somewhere? No rush! Thank you ☺️🧀❤️

@GiveCheeseaChance Год назад

Hello Hannah, thank you so much for your complimentary feedback. Makes me feel wonderful. :-) To answer your question, you can easily adapt this brie recipe to make 6" camembert-sized (smaller) cheeses. Same timing and ingredients, etc, however as they are smaller cheeses, they will ripen faster--there is more surface area per weight of cheese so you'll be able to eat them sooner. In fact, it more presentable to serve smaller cheeses on a cheese board sometimes than a brie that is already cut into. I wouldn't use a 3" form though--it will result in a lot of rind for the amount of cheese. You could try though, just keep an eye on it, testing for ripeness/softness before the other cheeses. Hope this helps!

I've always thought that a ripe Brie is slightly runny in the middle. So would you leave it longer or for less time to achieve that, rather than have it firm all the way through? Thanks

Hello Dave, I cut into my brie too soon. It was too young so it was too firm. So I should have left it another couple of weeks. It would have become softer if I let it age more. Brie and camembert ripen from the outside in. You can see this is happening in my video for making camembert. There is a "cream line" under the rind that is runnier.

I made a Caerphilly a few days ago that had three ten-minute, pressings at 5kg each and it firmed up beautifully. I'm sure there's a reason for the lack of pressure, but I don't know what it might be.

@GiveCheeseaChance 3 месяца назад

Adding weight could push out too much whey and you could get a dense paste as a result, which you don't want. Try it without weight, like shown in the video and then look at the resulting cheese. On your next batch, if you really wanted to put a weight on top (perhaps just to smooth its shape), I would just use half a kilogram (1 lb) at most, if at all. But I think you will find it is not necessary.

Hi, Mary Anne. I am on my 8th make of this Brie. I just can't get enough! I have another question for you. When someone asked about the shelf life, you responded that you have kept some wedges for almost two months.I made that last batch on 8 April in hopes that it would be ready by 1 June. It is ready now! I made 2 wheels from 2.5 gal. raw milk. I have eaten almost 1/2 wheel in the past few days. I am just so i love with the flavor, the texture, the whole package!!! I your opinion, should I go ahead and cut into the other one (which I was saving to serve to some international guests next weekend) to stop the maturation? Or should I simply leave it wrapped in the container it is in and open it then? I really don't want it to become ammoniated. Thanks again for all your hard work!!

@maryannefarah4367 2 года назад

Hi Rebecca,I am glad you are enjoying it so much! I’d say don’t cut into it until you want to serve it. But store it in your regular fridge to slow down further maturation. With home cheesemaking, every batch can be a little different.

Firstly thank you for these amazing videos !! I've recently made this Brie and we live in Australia, our pantry is just too warm so we put our Brie (goats milk milked from our lovely Gloria) it's been in the fridge since January 1st and it's only got a very slight formation of mold on top and the bottom, not the sides. The fridge is way too cold at about 3 degrees Celsius, so I assume that is the issue and we've recently purchased a regulator so we can increase the temperature etc. Is this a lost cause now? what should we do ? not wanting to wrap in paper ? Would love your advice

@GiveCheeseaChance Год назад

Hello! Your 3 degree Celsius fridge is meant to slow down bacterial and fungal activity, right? That's why we keep our food in there--to slow down microbial activity--which is not desirable for cheesemaking where we want to encourage bacteria and molds to do their thing! If you bring your cheese out of the fridge, it still may allow the exterior white molds to grow, on the condition that it is in a humid environment which molds require for germination. However, by now, your cheese's rind may have dried out. Hard to say. Here's what I recommend... if you look at my cambozola-making video, you will see how I make a 50 ml solution of penicillium candidum and geotrichum candidum and I wipe this solution onto the surface of the cheeses to inoculate the surface. You may want to do this if you find after 1 week of putting the cheese at around 10-15C, there is still no mold growth. I hope this helps. Fingers crossed for you!

Thank you so much for your videos. I’ve made brie cheese three or four different times and Camembert once using your directions. Most of it has aged about a month and a half and is very tasty. It is wrapped in cheese paper and I’m keeping it in my normal refrigerator right now. can I or should I vacuum seal the cheese and either store it that way or freeze it that way. That’s my question. I don’t want to leave it just in the paper and have it possibly dry out overtime because I can’t eat it as fast as I’ve been making it.

@GiveCheeseaChance Год назад

That's an issue I understand. Unfortunately you can't freeze nor vac pack brie or camembert-style cheeses. I suggest you share with friends and family. However, the recipes in my brie/camembert videos have a good shelf life. The camembert style is semi-stabilized so it lasts longer than a traditional camembert but still has a degree of softness I like. Since I also have the issue in my home of having too much cheese to eat, I want recipes that will last a long time in the fridge. I have left these cheeses in the fridge in their white cheese papers for months and they are fine. They do change character quite a bit, but I love that.

Yes, the mold will travel through the air currents in the fridge. A ripening box should keep that to a minimum if you keep it mostly closed, however you'll have to watch that there is not too much humidity building up within the box. Wipe away any excess moisture within the box if you have to keep the box closed to prevent any contamination. I hope this helps.

The recipe in my video is for a cheese that has a stabilized paste so that the cheese lasts longer. It also helps to have a firmer paste when you cut the brie wheel into triangles, so it doesn't make too much of a mess and each triangle keeps its shape. That is why I prefer a firmer brie.
