    First time watching you make cheese...damn, that's a lot of work.
    You really got my attention when you said you would use the whey to make ricotta. I'm part Italian and could pretty much live off of ricotta (that's why I don't keep it on hand a lot).
    Not sure if you have done a video on that, I'll check.
    Thank you

    Cheddar is usually a hard, less creamy cheese
