Looks like I am going to sand and hand paint the press to remove ant sharp edges and then use regular net curtain fabric.
The press worked well enough even though it seemed to not press the pomace totally dry. More patience next year and more/bigger cheeses.
What paint should I use for the press, basket and base? Also what about the thick ply racks/discs?
Thanks,
Dean.
Hi guys,Learnt a lot in my first year of proper pressing.I have a home made basket type press that holds approx 20 litres. To increase yield instead of filling it in one go I made several 'cheeses' from fine straining bags from my local home brew store. These are alternated with thick circular discs of plywood as the 'rack'. All of which sit inside a removeable slatted cylindrical barrel ontop a metal base.I am not sure if they burst under pressure or if they tore on my equipment but either way one by one they failed, only just got through the session.Where can I buy fabric cheaply to use for making these cheeses. I need about half a dozen or so.
