New Society Publishers Mastering Basic Cheesemaking: The Fun and Fundamentals of Making Cheese at Home

This book is an absolute MUST for anyone interested in the process, science, and skill behind cheesemaking. Gianaclis is extremely talented at making the complex process of cheese making approachable and understandable. In her recipes, she anticipates and explains questions the reader may have. She also troubleshoots and problem solves for the readers at the end of each recipe. Furthermore, Gianaclis is incredibly kind. When I came across a problem I couldn't solve using the books, I reached out to her and she answered me promptly and respectfully. She is truly a teacher at heart and desires to see the art of cheese making grow and thrive in young homesteaders and homemakers.

I bought this book but I didn't find so much important imformation in this book,stop selling this book to not decieve people

It is an absolute delight to read a book where the author, Gianaclis Caldwell, passes on so much knowledge and in such a logical structure! I very highly recommend this book.

2 months ago, I found instructions on-line on how to make "farmer" cheese. I made it a couple of times without really understanding what I was doing. I just received Ms. Caldwell's book last week and WOW! There are all sorts of little tidbits that are filling in my knowledge gap, with easy to follow instructions and great color photos, too. The book is organized in a series of lessons, starting with the most simple cheese (Ricotta), onto to buttermilk, kefir and yogurt (and others), graduating with the final lesson on Parmesan. I couldn't be more thrilled! If you're wondering where to start, get this book.
