Every cheese making experiment is such an adventure, I love it! I'm so glad you got the “200 Easy Homemade Cheese Recipes” book. It really has become my consistent go-to. Also thanks for the Berkeley tips, they are noted! :-) Anne - I would highly recommend buying this book: http://www.amazon.com/200-Easy-Homemade-Cheese-Recipes/dp/0778802183 But one tip about making Crottin, is to really fill the molds more than you think can fit. Not by squishing the curds down into the molds, but by waiting for them to drain for a few minutes and then re-filling. Happy Holidays, ladies! Thanks Kim!

Your cheeses really look professional! If you have a chance and are in Berkeley, do check out "The Cheeseboard," which has all sorts of amazing cheeses (next to Cheeseboard Pizza, also a must try!) and La Farine Bakery (yummy desserts) I bought the book "200 Easy Homemade Cheese Recipes" after reading your blog, and am anxiously waiting for it in the mail. yay!

(also got a nice stinky cheese there) Mini Goat Camembert sounds (and looks) pretty good to me! :) I remembered this posting when I was the SF Ferry Building on Thursday and picked up a Cowgirl Creamery Crottin because of it.
