LGC 018 – A Chat with Ian Treuer

Today I had the pleasure of talking to an experienced home cheesemaker, Ian Treuer.  He lives in Edmonton, Alberta Canada.

Ian has a successful cheese making blog called Much To Do About Cheese, and it what I really like about it is that he documents not only his excellent successes, but he also shows everyone what can and does go wrong.  Just brilliant.

During the podcast we mentioned a few links that I said I would list in the show notes;

• Ian’s Little Squirrel cheese,
• The link to the “Introduction to Artisan Cheesemaking” course that he is running in March 2014,
• and the link to Gürkan Yeniçeri’s Camembert method and recipe.  You may remember Gürkan when he was a guest on Episode #4 of the podcast.

Don’t forget that if you have any questions or comments about anything to do with home cheese making, then you can leave me a voicemail using the tab on the right hand side of the blog.

Also, if you think you have a cheese making story to tell, drop me an email. I would love to have you on the show as my next guest.

So, until next time curd nerds remember to Keep Calm and Make Cheese!
