NO NO NO
If you own a regular cheese making book this is all a rehash. Nothing new.
Great Resource
This book was very good about explaining the process of making cheese at home. I am looking forward to trying many of the recipes and hope to get some goats down the road to try several of the goat cheese recipes in the book. I would highly recomend this book.
too short
has feel of someone wanting to write a book for a sale, there are much better books with more information and better bang for your buck.
Guide to basics
This is a great little book,doesn't overwhelm you with too much variety yet shows you how to make butter and cheese for your kitchen. Very easy to follow and tastes are very nice for what I have made. The feeling of success led me to search out other information and continue acquiring skills.
OK primer, the full book is better
I see some reviewers who point out that the book is rather short on recipes for butter and yogurt, which merit mentions in the book's title, but only get one short recipe each in the book. This pamphlet is actually made of short excerpts from Ricki Carroll's book "Home Cheese Making". Carroll has one or two additional recipes in her full book for yogurt and butter, but her book is mostly focused on cheese (the words butter and yogurt don't appear anywhere on the front cover of her full book). So, if you're looking for lots of non-cheese dairy recipes, you should get something else.
And, in my opinion, if you're looking to get into making cheeses at home, Carroll's full book is a better deal. Sure, this pamphlet is cheap, but it's also only 32 pages. The full book costs more, but you get almost 300 pages of recipes and information.
