I design kits, write books and teach cheese making classes all for beginners. It's hard to believe but I now have 15 years of professional cheesemaking and instruction experience! Watch the video Etsy filmed with me back in 2010 shortly after I launched my shop in my About tab.
Since 2009, my kits are truly the original DIY Cheese Kits here on Etsy and my experience translates into your success. In fact, Williams Sonoma tested 5 other brands and chose several of mine to launch on their site in 2012. They still carry my newest Deluxe Cheese Kit in 2024! My kits have also been featured by Anthropologie, Nordstrom, Macy's, Whole Foods Market, Uncommon Goods and even Good Morning America. My books have been featured on NPR's All Things Considered, AM Northwest and several magazines.
My experience means excellent product quality, success for you and access to expert troubleshooting help with me if necessary (it rarely is!).
My goal is to make cheesemaking kits that do not overwhelm beginners AND make delicious cheese. Anyone can do it with my kits! Check out reviews and items sold. Newbies have success the first time so they make fun gifts.
Thank you for supporting a true small business and BIPOC cheesemaker here on Etsy. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. Claudia

4 out of 5 starsI only tried to make the mozzarella and must have done something wrong because it just crumbled. Had to through it away
Claudia Lucero responded on Apr 1, 2024
Oh no! The good news is that it sounds like you made cheese, just not quite mozzarella :). If it crumbled it likely got overheated and dried out at some point. I offer ongoing support with your purchase and my email is in every kit so you can reach out with more details. We can figure out what went wrong and get you making tasty cheese soon!

5 out of 5 starsItem exactly as described. Fast shipping. Instructions seem very clear and helpful. I can’t wait to actually use it as soon as I can remember to bring home some milk lol
Claudia Lucero responded on Apr 2, 2024
Thanks Shannon! We're halfway there lol. Remember that you'll get the best results with whole milk that is not ultra pasteurized. Look for pasteurized or raw on the label. Have fun with it!

So glad to hear you received it fast Melissa. I hope you have a ton of fun with your Instant Pot. Since I created this easy method, it's been my preferred way to make cheese!

That's right Susan, four batches total and you choose your favorite to repeat. That's at least 6lb of delicious fresh cheese! Enjoy
