I love this culture, it always turns out so well. Easy to make! You can use chevre for so many things.


Unfortunately, getting other than U.P. goat milk now-a-days is really hard. Even with the addition of Calcium chloride and a rennet dose..... you get a thickened sour cream texture. Nevertheless the flavor of the cheese, from the culture is fantastic!!!

The chevre starter culture makes cheesemaking magical. It takes minimal effort and the result is consistently fantastic. I have had goats for 15 years and have been using this culture for just about as long. A "goat" friend turned me on to this product and I have not deviated from New England Cheesemaking Supply's products. Thanks to you, people love the chevre I make!

I love this cheese and it's very easy to make with this culture.

I'm a big fan of goat cheese and was excited to try my first chevre. Method was easy, instructions clear, and the cheese was really good. Very creamy. 1 gallon of goats milk produced enough cheese (after draining) to make 4 different varieties. Can hardly wait to try with other brands of goat milk to see how the final product is effected.
