Great starter!
I've used others, but this one tends to be more consistent! I'd really recommend it

watch the expiration date
Very disappointing order. I recently placed an order for several items. Everything that came in will be expiring within the next few months The best by date on the Annatto coloring is March 2023, the Calcium Chloride is May 2023. Along with the fact the website says that the Thermophilic and Mesophilic culture have a shelf life of 2 years they both showed up with a best by date of August 2023. As some one that is a very casual cheese maker (maybe one block every two months). Most of this is going to be well expired before I will make it through it and defiantly does not have a 2 year shelf life as stated in the description.

Will reorder!
So grateful to have this quality product to aid me on my cheesemaking journey! Definitely going to have to buy the larger quantity next time because I'm making so much cheese!


Thermophilic
I received it and made Swiss cheese and it did its job well. Thanks
