I've ...I didn't have a good slotted spoon. I've never had a slotted spoon and never really needed one. I guess I do now. I work at Wassertrom so you would think I would have one. I didn't take the instructions seriously when it stated that the water needs to be chlorine free until 5 minutes before I wanted to make it. So I ran to the gas station and bought a bottle of water.<br />But my biggest mistake is that when I was heating the milk I turned the heat up instead of down. I realized this before it was too late, but the milk heated up very fast. I didn't get as much cheese as I thought I would. I wonder if the curds didn't have time to develop as fully because of this?<br />If you want to borrow a thermometer let me know. I scraped the candy thermometer that is in the picture and used my digital one. I love it, but it doesn't clip to the side. And like I said, I work at Wasserstrom...I sell thermometers all day long. The Source at the North Market is a Wassertrom store. If you need something they might have something there or could get you something. The manager, Roxane is very helpful.Amy Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07607879872725895653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3280523405492695937.post-50277552985192600242011-11-23T23:14:39.998-05:002011-11-23T23:14:39.998-05:00ooh, that looks SO good!

I have the rennet and the citric acid, need to get myself a decent thermometer and just get it done!<br />So what would you have done differently?Lorencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16772599126511191814noreply@blogger.com
