Use buttermilk 1part to 15parts. Suppliers will tell you theirs a taste difference & maybe their is in industrial cheese but not in soft or farmhouse cheese. Iv been using it before kits & prefer it as it makes a stronger curd
Valerie Lugonja says
Thanks Jo
Could you elaborate? Not exactly sure what you are saying. You use 1/15th buttermilk for every cheese recipe? What kind of buttermilk?

Please can you tell me too .
Where and which milk I should be buying ? Thank you
Valerie Lugonja says
Leva
Are you in Edmonton? We buy the Vital Greens whole milk from Planet Organic. It is the best out there and makes a gorgeous cheese – the best cheese possible, next to raw milk.

Nessa Subrata says
Hi Valerie,
Would you kindly let me know where I can buy unpasteurized milk in Toronto? Been trying to make mozzarella using pasteurized milk + calcium chloride but some websites mention that it is not recommended to use calcium chloride when making mozzarella.
Also, Glengarry is far from Toronto. Do you know any stores in Toronto that sell cheese making supplies?
Any info is appreciated! Thanks!
Valerie Lugonja says
HI, Nessa,
You will not be able to buy unpasteurized milk legally anywhere in Canada. Pasteurized milk will work for mozza – done it. As I am from Edmonton, I really don’t have that kind of specific knowledge for out there. I hope someone reading this will add to the information. If you use twitter, I would tweet out the question and you will get answers, for sure. Call your local cheesemakers, if there are any, or your local health food stores. They should be able to help you get a good quality of milk to work with.
🙂

Janine says
From what I have read, as long as you don’t use ultra-pasteurized milk it should be okay. Add 1/4 tsp of calcium chloride per gallon of milk. (Except for mozzarella–I think it interferes with the stretching–maybe Valerie can elaborate on that)

For anyone looking for cheese making supplies in Ontario, I can also recommend the following site. I am not sure of proximity to your poster, and I hope it works out for you.
I live in Langley BC and find it very frustrating that there is NOT a single distributor of cheese making supplies in this province. Great opportunity for someone to start up a shop!

Good Luck
Cheryl says
Bosogrape in Burnaby carries mad Millie cheese making supplies. Mad millie is a company out of New Zealand. Wish there was a closer supplier.
Valerie Lugonja says
Yes! Making cheese at home is such a fun hobby and more and more people are embracing it with their friends and families. This would be a great little niche market for any locale. Thank you so much for the information, Cheryl!

Katie says
Do you know of a place to buy cheese making supplies in Victoria BC?
Valerie Lugonja says
Katie
Not in Victoria proper, but I do know that the artisan cheese makers in the area can help you. There are a few famous ones on the island. Do you know who they are, or do you want me to look them up for you? If you shoot them a message, they can either order what you need with their orders, most likely – or sell you what you need from their own supply. I believe on of the places does have a little shop, holds classes and sells supplies.

Hi there
Love this site its been so helpful for a beginner like myself I was wondering if you know of any suppliers in BC for cheese making supplies, if I have too Ill order from the ones above in alberta but lol if I can save on shipping and shop closer to home Id be stoked 🙂
thank you 🙂
Valerie Lugonja says
Dear Scott,
Most small artisan cheesemakers will sell you what you need. If you connect with a small company in your area, and there are several excellent artisan cheesemakers in BC, and have a chat about what you want to do and make they can either order your items with theirs, or sell you some of their on product on hand.
Cheesemakers are a welcoming lot!
Let me know how it goes!

Hi,
I am looking for a good place to get supplies in Calgary. Any ideas, i found Chinook cheese company but they only sell the vegetable tablet rennet, and that’s about it.
Thanks
Valerie Lugonja says
HI, Florin
I really don’t know of any place in Calgary. Hopefully someone else will chime in to assist.
🙂
Valerie
florin says
I actually found one. 🙂
it is called make cheese, and their office is here in calgary and its related to Danlac company. You only have the option to order online, or over the phone, not a physical store, but that works too.
Thanks anyway.
Now all i need to find is a better source for milk. “beatrice” brand works …but not the best.
Valerie Lugonja says
The best milk is Vital Greens – Planet Organic sells it.

what about a place to buy cheese making supplies or ingredients in Manitoba?? IT seems this province is always left out of everything…
Valerie Lugonja says
Hi Cher,
I bought mine online from Toronto and live in Edmonton. I guess not too many people make cheese at home.

Hi Valerie
We have a new store for beginner Cheese makers. Cheeseneeds.com. We are not showing up on google yet but have a large clientele due to our Learn to make cheese page on Facebook. Yoav’s store is down now and I hope one day he opens again. As of now he is busy into great things with milk and cheese and hangs out helping us on the learn to make cheese page. We would love you to check out our store in BC and we’d love to be on the list. Thanks so much.
Chera ( owner/ operator) You can also reach me at cheeselady@telus.net. We cater to the beginner because its what we do 🙂
Valerie Lugonja says
Thank you for letting us know, Chera!!
heather squires says
Hi Valerie! I’m @thecurdgirl out here in Nova Scotia and I’ve been teaching cheese making and selling supplies and kits since around 2014 (around or just before our fun together with Cheespalooza!). I ship around the country and I also do some mobile teaching in different locations. My website is being rebuilt over the winter – partly to link to our 1780s heritage farm where we also have a licensed micro dairy producing small batch cheese commercially). Folks are welcome to connect on Instagram or Facebook or email. Thanks for the opportunity to share.
Valerie Lugonja says
Lovely to hear from you again, Heather, and that you are well and thriving in all things cheese! 🙂

Sorry.
