Cheese Fridge
Making hard cheese is just that...hard. It takes several days to make
the cheese wheels and the ripening conditions are very specific. I
hooked up my fermenter controller to this little yard sale dorm fridge
we picked up for $5. Now the fridge can run at 53F (ideal temperature
for cheese ripening) rather than it's usual 35F that most
refrigerators run at. Our latest raw romano cheese will need to sit in
the dorm/cheese fridge for three months (minimum) before we can start
munching on it.
