Cheesemaking kits are optional; the basic kit includes all the specialty ingredients and equipment you'll need (except milk and salt) to make up to 8 batches of Gouda cheese. The standard kit also includes a mould for pressing your Gouda, and you can choose between a small or medium food-grade polypropylene mould and follower. The small mould is the perfect size for making cheese using 4 litres/quarts of milk, while the medium mould is for 8 litres/quarts of milk.
