I love your “from the kitchen” videos! Shows people there’s more to having goats than just chores and feeding and cleaning. 😍❤️
Crystal I would never have the patience for cheese making. You are a saint lol. I do love watching you make cheeses though. You have passion for everything about your farm and I love it.
Amen! Same here
🤗
Dog: barks
Goats: RUN!!!
Oooh I always click when I see your vids! I love you, your family, and your farm!
Hey crystal why is there it you always make everything look so easy. I hope all is well with your family and that sweet adorable 😍 grand baby 🍼 love you all take care and God Bless you all 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗. A few hugs never hurt anyone.
Little miss muffet sat in the corner eating her curds an whey along came a spider who sat down beside her and scared miss muffet away LOL. It made me thing of the nursery rhyme🕷🕸🕸🕸🕷🕷🕷
Been watching all your videos for a few years now as well as the kidos, just love you all. I am a 68 year old grandma living in central Maine. I don't miss a single video. Thank you for sharing your life with us all Crystal.
Thank you!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Crystal, I just love you! Thank you for the comment back the other day! It truly made my day to know that even though you are so busy you took the time to message me back. Maybe when COVID gets better you can offer your Fans a trip and visit to your ranch! I would love to lay down and just experience the cuteness of all the babies in the baby pen! And to feed a baby a bottle. It would be the best natural endorphin for someone like me with physical disabilities. A natural, God made source of pain relief! Thank you for posting your videos! Love to watch how you make cheese! Love from Iowa Forever and Always! Tammy Jo 🥰🥰🥰🥰🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
I used to do a lot of canning doing tomatoes used to kill my arm and neck was nice to have them all winter made awesome sauce it’s a lot of work to enjoy later
Imagine when cooking in the kitchen all day was a normal thing for most people. That would be insane I have even making a box cake mix. 😂 admire the patience.
I love watching you make the soap and cheese. How or when does the cheese get its color?
All cheese is naturally white. If you color the cheese it is in the early stages before rennet gets added in.
This is so much fun to make things like this
I love watching any of your vlogs but these are really interesting and today more so was admitted to the local hospital last evening with chest pain and with covid no visitors allowed waiting on a heart catherization tomorrow morning to see if I have a blockage could use a prayer 🙏 if you get a chance Love you guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Melissa Langford
I hope everything goes well, and it's not serious.
Sending virtual hugs from Fallbrook California 🌄♥️❤️❤️😷
Oh no!! I hope you get well soon!! Please keep us posted!
Prayers going up for you Melissa
Danielle Terry Thanks so much sitting here waiting to be taken down for the procedure just worried and scared and will be glad when it’s over
Laurie Estes Thank you so much just sitting here waiting on a time to open up on the schedule I’m just worried and scared and wish it was all over with.
I would love to see you pull out of the cave and try the cheeses. Taste test.
Probably the one cheese that was so stubborn will be the best cheese hands down. Your the best
Lol. Right?
I felt so bad for you when that terrible cloth was sticking. I'm glad it turned out OK after all!! I would love to see the wax process.
Looks like you need a step stool to stir the curds. It would help. I have the same problem. I currently have 3 pregnant does and a buck. I'm new to goats. I love making soap, cheeses, sour cream and butter. I'm so excited to have fresh raw milk in the near future. Everyone needs goats in their lives.
Learning something new everyday and to feed your family and to be proud of yourself to do something out of your box, mistakes can overcome.
Love, love, love your channel.....wish you would show the waxing process ❤️!
Breaks down buys every cheese thing crystal shows cause I love some cheese makin!
Bwahahaaa!!
I love YOUR hairstyle ,all OF YOUR GOATS. & learning how you make cheese fromthe GOAT milk. THANKYOU ! ...
LOVE watching you make cheese!!!
I am going to try this recipe thank you so much for sharing this with us.
Many thanks for the video. Wonderful.
It help to work on a shorter table . Not to short so your not bent over . But low enough so your arms aren't above your shoulders . For long stirring time stand on a stool so your a little above the pot . I have a bad back and shoulders it really does make a difference .
You are truly amazing Crystal. Thank you for the inspiration.
I really enjoy watching you make cheese, thank you.
How cool! Cheese making us so fascinating! I just love it! Great video 😄
Monterey Jack is one of my favorite cheese's. I was crying right along with you, don't worry I swore for you. Haha glad it came off ok at the end. Yummy. I always have to eat some cheese after watching you make it 😋
Haha!! Thank you for saying not nice words for me! 🤣🤗
@@BlueCactusDairyGoats I gotcha haha
Thank you for another great night of entertainment. It was good to hear Your son. I miss seeing the kids run with the goats. Your lil mini me is fabulous!
That is a beautiful cheese. I have loved watching your cheese making journey.
I LOVE THESE CHEESE MAKING VIDEOS. I NEVER GET TIRED OF GOATS AND CHEESE. WELL DONE!
The cheese cloth that you used is good for the initial pressing and the final pressing. Multiple layers is where the issue is. Too many layers and the cheese try to absorb it into the center.
Love it.
Yummy 😋 Looks good Crystal
That looks soo good!!
I REALLY ENJOY WATCHING ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS. BLESS YOU FOR YOUR CARE AND LOVE OF EACH OF YOUR NIGETIAN GOATS AND I AM ENJOYING HOW TO MAKE CHEESE FROM THE GOAT DAIRY. THXSO MUCH. !!!
Love everything you do….cheese, soap, meat, doing your mommy thing with your gorgeous goats……it’s so satisfying watching you makes all my stress go away…….thanks for your help! Love you girl🤙🥰❤️
You do such a wonderful job making videos of cheese making, soap making, etc. Love watching every video you make! So enjoy seeing you kids participating in the chores! Keep the videos coming! xo
Just wanted to share, I appreciate all your videos. It makes my day seeing a new one from you...kudos!
🤗🤗
We just bought two goats, and are so excited for them to start producing milk. I'm super eager to start making cheese and cajeta!
Looks like success to me 😌 Great job Crystal 🧀
I love it.. 10lbs you hear a squish second to 20lbs.. hears squish 10 lbs more= 20lbs...all that hard work.. my neighbor would was her cheese cloth by hand and reuse it.. she was an old Italian lady..only if a high quality cloth.
Have a good evening 🌻🌻🌻
Haha! The squishy sounds are my weight guessing. I hand wash my cloth as well and reuse. The junk one I tossed lol
31:39 “This cheese is already…”. Monterey Jacked up? 😏 Seriously though, beautiful job! I can’t wait to try making some!
I love this channel
Very interesting!
You are one patient lady. I would be going crazy. Tell Darin, a good job on the camera.
This looks amazing! Sorry I was late! 🙏♥️
Thank you for showing us this very informative I wouldn’t have known that there were diffrent cheese cloths and how you have to change them out to keep the cheese from sticking even when you do wet them with whey 😁
I like your cheese videos
THAMK YOU
Crystal I love you watching you. Wow that's good amount of milk from you're lovely goats your amazing. I saw the video of you making cheddar cheese and it didn't come out as well hope this is better. I LOVE CHEESE!!!!WOW that was a quick half in 1hr lol,wow you cut those square wicked than I could blink wow your fast🤣🤣🤣🤣it's funny seeing fast forward with you. Hey you stole my smiley face magnets on your fridge,I have them on my fridge.yummy. hope you guys didn't the storm of flooding!!! Stay safe great job.
Haha! I wish it only took 30 minutes!! I'd have a house of cheese wheels!! I just got your sweet card and gift in the mail yesterday. Thank you for thinking of us!
@@BlueCactusDairyGoats your welcome hope everything is well there and you guys are doing okay with the storms around I'm glad you got my mail I wasn't sure if you were going to get it have a great week I'll be looking again for your videos I love watching the old ones to now I'd love to donate but right now my funds are like"what funds?"Lol but I'm glad I have a job I've always loved and wanted to work with animals growing up my dad always wanted a pygmy goat my mom Said no her reason was because she would be the one taking care of it along with the other animals we had which was me I was the one bringing home the cats,rabbits,etc.. I'm sure if I brought a goat home then she would have taken it in 😁🤣🤣🤣lol
I love watching your chesse making videos- could we get a part 2 on these cheeses? All the way to finished product. My mom's directions for cheese making are haphazard at best and nonexistent at worst...you give such easy to follow instructions!
Bwhahaha!! I bet I'd like your mom. That's how I am with most of my recipes. How do you make it? Ummm. I just throw some stuff together, man. That's my response for most things I make.
Was the other cloth a butter muslin? That cheese looks so good. No matter the little imperfections. It’s rustic and handmade with love and passion instead of robotic mechanically factory produced. We’ve gotten so programmed to want only perfect looking food but the best oranges I eat come from the MaMaws orange trees in south Louisiana and don’t look perfect. 😋
Very nice good dear
My first time watching videos like this. Was just wondering how to make cheese with milk or goat milk.. I had no idea the amount of time and work invested in it.😮
But loved your videos.
You really amaze me. All that you do in one day.
Children, husband, grandmother, gardener, adorable goats, dogs, etc.
On top of all those responsibilities, you make your own cheese!
🤗👍🏻🌻💕🙏🏻🙏🏻
Best wishes to you and yours
Sue from S.M. CA
That cheese cloth sucks ! Not your fault!
Aww. You're so sweet! We make an awesome team and I couldn't do it without them! That cheese cloth did suck! 🤣
Very good information about cheese hmm you are awesome crystal hey wait I didn't see Emily around you. crystal where is she ?
Haha! She is lurking in the background 😁
Could you have put them both in one press and tried to use the good cheesecloth between them? It looked like a long piece. But, if not, I'm just happy you were able to salvage it. Thanks for sharing.
Yummy!!! Ugly or not, I’m sure it came out delicious! Great job!!
Love this video! So is the brine just water and salt?
use a long thin blade to separate cloth and cheese
I just subbed to you the other day. I just want to say I love how you do your hair. I know ...totally off topic.
Hello, greetings, I wish you luck and success. ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍👍👍👍😍
Oooo, that looks like it’s gonna be a great melter 🤤 bring on the grilled cheese sandwiches!! 🥪
Yes!! That was some springy curd! I can't wait to try it!
Blue Cactus Dairy Goats I may or may not have (definitely have) bought the things for making cheese and will be trying this one out.
Hahahha! Get it!
After the 2nd press I noticed some white dots on the cheese, I think maybe the cloth in the new press might actually be releasing more liquid then the other because it’s thinner, maybe hanging the cheese with the thinner cloth would be a better option. Iv never made cheese before though
Hi Crystal, Can you make ice cream with Goat milk? Love your vlogs! I don’t have goats but I like learning new things from you😊
Yes!! Go to our channel page and look at our recipe playlist. We have several ice cream videos :)
Awesome viewing cheers thanks for sharing your experience. Sorry about that pesky cheese cloth .
Haha! It turned out good in the end!
Love the ‘From the Kitchen’ videos. Pretty soon your going to know exactly how many turns to pounds ratio. Great job
Can you make butter or cottage cheese from goats milk?
Haha! Yes. Butter and cottage cheese can be made from goats milk, yes.
Lol your shirt..im from ormond beach fla ( daytona beach ) lol.
Hope both cheeses turn out well for you. That’s a lot of work.
What brand was the cheesecloth that stuck? What cheesecloth do you prefer?
hello I have a question this is probably a silly one but why not leave it whole and press it , instead of cutting them small , I know nothing about making cheese but what I watch you do I enjoy all your videos
There are many steps after the rennet coagulates the milk. Those other steps are what make each cheese different. Cutting the curds also allows the whey to release. Have to get the whey out and be left with the curd to make the chees :)
Can you save some of the whey back and sock the cheese cloth in it between pressings so it won’t stick like it did
You are one patient lady. I would be going crazy. Who is your cameraman?
This video was my boy 🤗
Love your cheese recipes. Quick question...is the amount of rennet, 1tsp per 3 gallons of milk or 1 tsp per 6 gallons? Thanks!
💕
That cheese looks so tasty... 🧀😋 Maybe the cheesecloth would work better single layered 🤔... Just a thought....
Yes. I think single layered would have been the ticket!
What do you do with the extra whey?
I have a question. Did you used iodized salt for the brine? thats what appeared to me?
I'm guessing less whey released is because this is a more creamy cheese??? I don't make cheese but sure love eating good cheese!!!! LOL Loving my Blue Cactus t-shirt!!!!!!
Love the videos!!! Be safe!!!!!!
Yay!! Email us a picture of you wearing your shirt and we can show you off! bluecactusgoats@hotmail.com
Which size press did you get? They have 2 different sizes? Thanks
Hi Crystal, Do you have a recommendation for cheese cloth? I would like to know about the good one :)
mmm...😋😊🤗
I have never had goat milk or cheese. How's it taste and where can you get either one? Have a great day!
I love this. I wanna make cheese if I get my own goats. I really don’t like the taste of goat milk thou lol. But it has a lot of good properties it’s easier on your stomach if you are lactose intolerant. I have a mild reaction to lactose I found it is better but it’s tastes so nasty. 😂❤️
You're driving king the wrong mill then!!
What brand of cheesecloth do you use
Hi Crystal ! I don’t make cheese but was thinking , could the clothe have dried out a little to much ? Does it take a certain type of cheese clothe? I do love cheese curds. Coming from the dairy state you can’t help not like them. I’m sure the taste will be delightful. Thank You for Sharing. 👍👍👍😊
The cloth was still wet though. I think it was the multiple layers. Either way, I ordered a bunch more of the good ones! Lol
Is you temperatures in farenhiet or in celcius??? Also what is the best product of cheese cloth, cause I ran into the same problem with the cheesecloth I bought for lunch meats making.
What makes the cheeses taste different?
I wonder if there is some sort of cheap beam style torque wrench that could be adapted to your cheese presses so you can tell how much pressure you're pressing?
I have no idea but maybe if you dipped the cheesecloths in the whey between pressings?
That would be awesome if there was! The cloth was already wet from the whey when I initially dipped it. I think it was the multiple layers that did it in.
What gives each cheese the different flavors? I've been watching you do your different cheeses. Is it the temperatures?
Many things. Temperatures, cultures, how you handle the curds.
Do you use the whey for any cooking?
I've honestly never used the whey to cook with. It usually goes to the pigs or chickens. It's great to make Ricotta cheese with too!
...hmm...it looks like the cheese cloth you like is (also known as) "flour sack cloth?" It's heavier and has a finer weave? Did that cloth come with the kit, or did you buy it separately?
Love your videos ... and your cheese, damn i would love to have one fresh goat cheese 😍
I have no experience in cheese making or with the use of cheese cloth, so i wondered, if it would do any good to use a little whey on the cloth when it sticks to the precious cheese in that way? Anyhow, im glad, that your second cheese seems to have gotten it self back together and doing actually fine. Fingers crossed!
The cloth was wet from the initial dipping in whey. In hind sight, I maybe should have wet it a little more when it was being difficult to peel off. Also, a single layer would have been better.
@@BlueCactusDairyGoats Thanks for answering. 🙂Ah, i couldn't tell from the video how wet it still was. Yes, one layer looked much better.
Oh my goodness three days of milking!! 😲 That’s only for a double batch?? Goodness those 6 girls are good producers.
Hmmmmm have you made cream cheese? Or did I miss that video. Does cream cheese made from goat milk taste the same from dairy milk cream cheese? Sorry random thought that popped out of my brain. Hahaha
Love the kitchen shows you added in I am learning a heck of a whole lot. Maybe once this hurricane Douglas passes Hawaii I will have to make a trip to the Surfing Dairy goat farm to get some goodies.
Yas gurl! Get some surfing goats milk!! I have never tried cream cheese but on my large list of have to's lol
Blue Cactus Dairy Goats alright I will!! 🤗🤗🤗 I hope you do a tutorial on Cream cheese goats milk cause I love cream cheese. The storm seems to be passing cause we hav sun peaking through but will have to see later today. Can’t wait for more goat products from your channel. Yay!!!
Where are you getting the recipes for your cheeses?
Hi from TX. I made Jack cheese today and I too managed to have the curds stick to my butter muslin. Not happy!! But an idea occurred to me...My press is not like yours, yet it is -- in that, I do not have weights either, just have to squeeze until I 'feel' like it is right. Wondering if we are squeezing too tight too quickly and causing the curds to be squished in the muslin. Any thoughts?? Cause those squished curds in the muslin is a real pain to clean!! Obviously, not my first.
Oh, Oh, Oh. Please link where you get your preferred cloths. Thanks.
Use a linen tea towel
Have you ever done Pepper Jack, Crystal?
Yes and it's so delicious! Love me some pepper anything!
Is there a less time consuming recipe, or method to cheese making?
Not for hard cheese. There are a lot of recipes we have videos on that are not so time consuming but none are a hard cheese. You have to put in the time and love for those bad boys :)
What size are those jars? Quarts?
Half gallon
