@ brrag: Pasteurized milk is processed at a certain temp (Idk what it is) and it removes (kills) bacterial in the milk, good and bad. Ultra pasteurized milk is processed at an even higher temp killing all bacterial and most nutrition in the milk. Wonder why u can't even find pasteurized milk anymore :(
Not to mention the significant difference in size between a gallon jug of milk and the resultant 1lb of cheese that comes from it. It takes much less crude oil to transport the cheese to her local store than it does the milk needed to make that cheese.
It's cool to make cheese as a hobby or because it tastes better but there's no way you're saving energy or water doing this. You're using milk in a plastic bottle (basically the same if not more packaging your cheese would come in) and you're adding two hours on the stove plus the electricity and water to wash all those dishes. Sorry, but your carbon footprint here is way bigger than a larger scale operation. Make your own cheese because it's yummy- don't pretend its eco-friendly.
@MrSchpankme im interested now i think im going to get that book

@brrag .. get the book "The Milk of Human Kindness is Not Pasteurized".
Note: the pasteurization of milk, is a means to sell a filthy product.

I used the cheese I made in this video in a pan of enchiladas. How would you eat yours?
