AMAZING is an understatement
April 21, 2013
I bought this kit because my boyfriend and I wanted to go to a cheese making class but they were always extremely expensive! So i found this kit on the website and we just made our first batch of mozzarella and it came out delicious! It was extremely easy to follow directions and took us only about an hour tops. We used a local whole milk *from WI of course* that they sell in the normal grocery store. Next time we are going to try and add our own herbs and spices, but for our first cheese i think we did quite well! Also make sure that you have a slotted spoon you will need it! Oh yeah, and it makes a lot of cheese which one batch (about a pound) lasts up to one week in your fridge!
Pros: good cheese, easy to understand directions, easy and quick

Smaller than what I expected.

Packages were smaller than what I expected but overall a great product. I am glad I ordered two kits because my children have already used up one.

Motz/ricotta cheese kit
March 13, 2013
My wife is lactose intolerant so I tried making these two cheeses with Lactaid milk. The ricotta turned out great. Much better than store bought...a very fresh taste. The Mozzerella was not as good, however it was probably because I had to use ultr pasturized milk which they recommend not using. It was ok, but not the same as what you buy at the store. Overal, I will use this again and would recommend it .

Great fresh mozzarella
January 26, 2013
Followed directions and turned out perfectly. Recommend first time having a partner to help - there are several detailed oriented steps which are time sensitive. I made a batch of plain mozzarella and it was delicious - especially when immediately finished.

Missing Components
December 26, 2012
I was so excited to receive this as a gift, but the tablets needed for making mozzarella are not in the box. Since I can't exchange it in the store (internet only item) and wasn't given the packing slip, I went ahead and used it for ricotta which turned out great.

also missing the rennet
I too was given this kit as a gift and was surprised to find the rennet tabs missing! Too bad. I called WS and they are sending me a new kit. Hopefully this one will have the rennet!
