Hard Cheese Mold (Small)
Description
This small hard cheese mold with follower will work with any of our presses and can be use to make up to a two pound cheese, from two gallons of milk. This sturdy mold can handle a pressing weight of up to 100 lbs.
The open bottom on this cheese mold provides ideal drainage. Since this mold does not need the amount of weight, for pressing, as larger cheese molds, it does not need a closed bottom to contain the curd mass.

United StatesThis was perfect for 2 gallons worth of goat milk cheese curds, minus a few curds for taste testing. Made hard Colby cheese, now off to rest for a few months. Sturdy mold and easy to clean.
United StatesThis mold worked perfectly for my 2 gallon farmhouse cheddar. It is very sturdy for the 50 pounds of pressure required.
United StatesI am a beginning cheese maker, and I made a lovely 2 pound "Goat Milk Tomme" with this mold, and also two 1.5 lb "Cabra Al Vino" cheeses. Pressed at 25 lb, could have easily handled more. My cheeses came out beautifully!
United StatesI have used my mold now 4 times. It is a nice size mold for making cheese at home. The follower fits nicely in the mold so you don’t get a weird ring on the outside of you cheese wheel. It is easy to clean and store.
United StatesI don't understand how this is supposed to work for two gallons, it wasn't even close to fitting. Also, the edges aren't smooth so it snags on the cheesecloth.
