Average Customer Ratings:
This comprehensive guide to farmstead cheese explains the diversity of cheeses in terms of historical animal husbandry, pastures, climate, preservation, and transport— all of which still contribute to the uniqueness of farm cheeses today.
Discover the composition of milk (and its seasonal variations), starter cultures, and the chemistry of cheese. The book includes:
• A fully illustrated guide to basic cheesemaking
• Discussions on the effects of calcium, pH, salt, and moisture on the process
•Ways to ensure safety and quality through sampling and risk reduction
• Methods for analyzing the resulting composition
You will meet artisan cheesemaker Peter Dixon, who will remind you of the creative spirit of nature as he shares his own process for cheesemaking. Alison Hooper, cofounder of Vermont Butter & Cheese Company, shares her experience—both the mistakes and the successes—to guide you in your own business adventure with cheese. David and Cindy Major, owners of Vermont Shepherd, a sheep dairy and cheese business, tell the story of their farm and business from rocky beginning to successful end.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Invaluable For the Home Cheesemaker - 
This book is a very useful reference for the home cheesemaker for all stages from set up, fine tuning your recipes, troubleshooting problems, and insights into the business side, if you want to go that way. It contains enough chemistry and biology to allow you to adjust the your cheese recipes according to the individual batch parameters.
The discussion on Pasteurization is very helpful for understanding the raw milk dilemma, and the story of the problems the author encountered establishing his own business is inspiring.

A Book for a New Business -
Highly recommended. Undestand the basics on it to develop a succesful business in this area.
Lots of reading in this one! -
I have purchased 5 cheese making books before buying this one - and it was well worth the wait. We have made the cheeses and now are about to open our small factory. The American Farmstead Cheese book is explaining most of our questions, the how's, the why's. There aren't any recipes however the information is spot on. All I need to know now is how to make a creamy Danish type Feta - any suggestions?
Great overview of business and art -
We bought this book to get a better understanding of the business side of making farmstead cheeses. The book is well written and answered questions we hadn't even thought of yet. I recommend it as a must read for any one thinking of going into farmstead or artisan cheese making.

I bought this book as a gift for my brother, who owns a small raw-milk dairy in California & is working on making cheese from his guernseys' milk. He says it is exactly what is needed to understand the process: the chemistry of cheese.
