the first ingredient, cheese culture, is added to the milk.\u00a0 Cheese culture, which activates the milk and turns the milk sugars into lactic acid, is also a key ingredient to identifying the cheese\u2019s character after aging.\u00a0 The next ingredient added is rennet.\u00a0 This ingredient is an enzyme that causes the milk to coagulate, a very fascinating part of cheese making, as the cheese sets up like custard in approximately twenty minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is then time to cut the curd.\u00a0 This is done by placing curd knives into the vat.\u00a0 These curd knives are basically sets of wires that run horizontally and vertically and cut the entire vat from top to bottom into quarter inch cubes.\u00a0 These cubes are very soft and fragile at first but as they cook, they firm up and continue to release more whey.\u00a0 Cooking the curd is a very delicate process as we heat the vat with steam from ninety degrees to 102 degrees only allowing it to rise two degrees every five minutes.\u00a0 When the curd is completely cooked we will have 600 pounds of curds from 6000 pounds of milk.\u00a0 Approximately ten percent becomes cheese.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the curds are cooked and have reached the correct consistency, we push them to the back of the vat and drain off the whey.\u00a0 The whey that has been drained is eventually spread on neighboring farm fields as fertilizer.\u00a0 Whey is a byproduct of cheese making but when processed, can be found in other foods we eat as well as some animal feeds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The curds will knit together in the bottom of the vat.\u00a0 Using a large knife, we will cut them to form large slabs of cheese.\u00a0 These slabs are rotated and stacked every fifteen minutes as they continue to release more whey, firming up and consolidating.\u00a0 This is called the cheddaring process.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-875985573 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 0px 16px 0px 16px;\n}\n@media (min-width:550px) {\n  #col-875985573 > .col-inner {\n

this by feeding the slabs through a curd mill, which cuts the slabs into finger-sized pieces called cheddar cheese curds.\u00a0 The curds are salted and sometimes find customers waiting for them, warm and fresh, straight from the vat.\u00a0 The curds that are not packed up fresh, are packed into 40 pound hoops.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The hoops are lined with cheesecloth, and once filled are all ready to go into the press.\u00a0 When put under pressure, the curds knit together to form perfect blocks of cheese.\u00a0 More whey will be expelled from the blocks while under pressure.\u00a0 The next day the cheese will be removed from the press. It is then packed air tight and placed into aging.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.septemberfarmcheese.com\/cat\/country-market\/cheeses\/cheddar\/\">Cheddar cheese<\/a> is aged from three months to three years with longer aging time producing sharper cheeses.\u00a0 All of our cheddar cheese is packed by hand, taking forty pound blocks out of aging and cutting them into eight ounce bars.\u00a0 Much time and attention is given to the cheese at this time.\u00a0 We enjoy making homemade cheese balls and spreads with our cheddar cheese that is trimmed.\u00a0 These trimmed \u201cends\u201d are also available in our retail store at a discounted price.\u00a0 Cheddar cheese then moves into the waxing area where every bar of cheese is coated in clear wax and then two coats of a colored wax.\u00a0 Each colored wax identifies a different type of cheddar cheese.\u00a0 The wax dries very quickly, the bars are labeled, and ready to go for sale.\u00a0 Our Smoked Cheddar Cheese is waxed in a brown wax.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-2043587777 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 0px 16px 0px 16px;\n}\n@media (min-width:550px)
