Why buy cheese when you can summon it into existence like a dairy wizard? This kit is like the Hogwarts acceptance letter for aspiring cheese magicians, ready to turn your kitchen into a cheese-making classroom. Expecto Cheesum! Upon receiving this kit, I felt a surge of culinary power. It's like Dumbledore himself handed me a wand and said, "Make cheese, young wizard, and the world shall taste your dairy magic." I half-expected my cat to turn into a cheese grater. Opening the kit is like uncovering the secret ingredients to a cheesy potion. "Eye of mozzarella, wing of ricotta, and a pinch of Hogwarts magic dust." I might have thrown in some extra flair, but hey, cheese-making is a serious business. The instructions are like a spellbook, guiding you through the mystical art of cheese creation. "Stir clockwise three times, say 'cheeseus createus,' and voilà - cheese shall appear!" It's like participating in a culinary incantation that even Merlin would envy. But let's not forget the curdling process. It's like witnessing a dairy-based alchemy. One moment, you have a pot of milky innocence, and the next, you're summoning curds like you're calling forth cheese spirits. "Ricotta spiritus, arise!" And then comes the stretching and shaping of the mozzarella. It's like sculpting with edible Play-Doh, except this Play-Doh is destined for pizza greatness. I may have shaped a cheese Gryffindor lion just for the fun of it. The best part is tasting the fruits of your cheese wizardry. It's like biting into a slice of pure enchantment. You'll be tempted to send Hogwarts an owl, declaring, "Move over, Bertie Bott, we've got Cheesy Beans now!" This Mozzarella & Ricotta Cheese Making Kit is not just a kit; it's a cheese-making adventure, a magical journey into the realm of dairy sorcery. So, don your cheese-making robes, brandish your cheese wand, and may your kitchen be forever filled with the aroma of enchanting curds!

It’s easy to make and really good!

This DIY cheese-making kit is awesome! It comes with everything you need to get started, and the instructions are super clear, even for beginners like us. I was happy with how easy and satisfying it was to make my own cheese at home. The ingredients provided are high-quality, and the process was a fun activity to do with friends or family. The cheese tasted and there was plenty to make. I also love that it is a variety, so we could try making different types of cheese. Highly recommend this for anyone who loves cheese or is looking for a unique and enjoyable hobby!

Has all the elements to make Mozzarella from Whole Milk. My first attempt, I ended up with cream cheese, second (different brand of milk), I got Mozzarella. I want to try the version using Vinegar instead of the tablets. Recommendations: Make sure milk is not "ultra pasteurized", would be better if not "homogenized" - but I couldn't find that - I don't recommend raw milk, but your choice. I don't know if it was just because I made it, but I swear it tasted better than store bought cheese! (creamier).

12 years ago, I tried making my first batch of Mozzarella with another cheesemaking kit. Cutting to the chase, that effort seemingly took a couple of hours as I simply couldn't get the cheese to come together properly, even through multiple rounds in the microwave. The final product was rather small, although I was able to serve it at a party as part of an appetizer. Fast forward to today (literally) and this kit is definitely several steps up - the final product is outstanding, a mozzarella I'd be thrilled to serve to family or friends, put on a pizza, or just snack on. It's firm (from a lot of kneading), so more braid-like than ball-like, but outstanding. From the very clear instructions, using Raw Milk (I used pasteurized last time) seems to facilitate the creation of a good final product with fewer chances of failure or overwork. I also purchased (separately) three small thin mesh colanders and very heat resistant gloves, and both of these strategies paid off - the colanders to better separate the curds from the whey, and the gloves to help you knead and stretch the hot cheese during microwave rounds. You'll get multiple cheese efforts from this product; the only real replaceables (which are cheap) are citric acid, rennet and cheese (kosher) salt, when they run out. But I like the packaging, the materials are solid, and the instructions very well laid out. Personally I'm using this to kickstart other cheese efforts, like brie and cheddar, but I'm really happy that this kit did what it was advertised to do, and did it well.

Just took a cheese making class and can't wait to give this as a gift

The directions could be better. They're not too detailed, and I had to go online and do additional research. But, it's nice that everything is included that you need to make cheese.

My BFF and I were looking for a rainy day project and decided to try cheese making. We bought expensive low processed whole milk in a bottle and got to work. The end product came out fine, a little too firm for our liking. Next time we won’t knead and pull so long but it is hard to gauge when it is your first try and the cheese is so darn hot! I ended up putting leftovers on homemade Margherita pizza that I did on the BBQ (It melted just fine). Was it worth the price of the milk and the kit, when we could have purchased store made fresh mozzarella …probably not, but it was fun
