Anyone interested in making home-made cheese?

Eric_Belgium

I am making home made cheese, mainly Gouda type cheese, purely as a hobby. Is anyone interested in joining me? No financial participation is needed: I have all the equipment and ingredients. I just think it would be more fun to do it together than alone. Currently I'm making wheels of 2 and 4.5 Kg.

If interested in other projects, such as PhotoVoltaic solar energy and Geothermal cooling, then that would be perfect. These are projects in the planning.

I speak English, Dutch, French, German and Thai. I am living in Najomtien, Pattaya.

If interested, pls let me know.

Eric.

Hi Eric,

We are neighbors- I live in Jomtien Beach. Cheese is one of my very favorite foods and the thought of learning how to make it is most interesting. I am from the States and have lived in Thailand for 24 years. My mobile # is xxxx and I would really like to hear from you.

Hi Eric, sounds good to me, i loved cheese Gouda one of a kind. Every time I visited my family in Belgium they always make sure I have all the different kinds of cheese and of course a bottle of wine on the table. Actually I discovered in the Philippines cheese ice cream, my favorite now.
Let me know when are you planning to start cheese making. I just joined the °µÍø½ûÇø few days ago and wanted to go back to thailand again in Jan, I was there last sept and I really liked the place.
Beside cheese making maybe you can give more info about  living in thailand.
Merci,
atenene

And I lived in Bristol UK (near Cheddar) the HOME of all things west-country Cheddar.  Also Bristol is home to "Wallace & Gromit" the cheese loving plasticine characters - So its in my blood!

Irrespective of health/hygiene regulations, Thai food licences and what-not, you could make a fortune on starting a black market cheese emporium! The cost of cheese in Thailand has never ceased to astonish me... 

Unfortunately I have no time with my business to join-in, but it sounds really interesting and if you have any 'surplus' I would buy it to help towards your ongoing costs - And I know many other ferrangs who would too!

Good luck.  Great idea Eric.

Hi Eric,

This sounds great! I have wanted to learn how to make cheese for years, and would love to come learn from you and help out in any way.  I am mostly free on evenings and Sundays because I work, but I'm sure we can work something out.

I recently moved to Pattaya for work as and Engineer.  In my previous job I was directing R&D at a small Solar PV company in California, and in general I am very passionate about alternative energy.  I look forward to meeting up and some good discussions!

I know this is an older post, but even if you're not making cheese right now, please give me a ring and we can be in touch.

Dag Eric,

Ik ben net terug van Pattaya en ben al een tijdje opzoek naar een job daar in de buurt!
De bedoeling is dan ook om definitief te verblijven in Pattaya!
Stuur eens een mailtje wat het juist allemaal inhoud Eric. zodat we mischien verdere plannen kunnen bespreken.
Ik zelf ben chefkok van beroep dus ik weet nog enkele dingen van de kazen!

Alvast badankt,

Hi Eric,

Your post sounds really interesting...do you have a new project coming up we would love to attend.

Cheers!

Eric_Belgium

Hi Mosaicjourney,

I'm in Phuket right now until the end of the week. maipenarai.com for some more info about me and my latest project: curing meat and making French-style dried sausages. You will find a link there to my Flicker account with more pics. Since I use FaceBook, my website is not well maintained, so you can find me on FB under "ericvercauteren" and send me an invite if you wish.

Take care and talk to you soon,

Eric.

is this activity still active?

Eric_Belgium

Haven't been making cheese for quite a while. Made several cured meat products instead like salami, French style dried sausages and even a whole ham, which tasted excellent after curing for 6 months. Here is a link to some pics:

Lately I've been playing around with solar projects, including converting a Yamaha outboard motor to electric, on which I'm currently working.
Just having fun.

Hallo Eric,  Ik woon in Khon Kaen, kom uit Nederland, maar woonde 12 jaar nabij Antwerpen.
Ben gister begonnen met kaas maken.


Lijkt me leuk om kaas met je te maken en ook je andere interesses lijken me wel wat.

Mijn verleden kn je zien op Wikipedia - Han Meijer, manager. Daar staat wat ik in vroeger jaren deed.
Stilzitten , valt me moeiljk vanr mijn interesse.  groet van Han

Eric_Belgium

Hi Han,
Ik woon al lang niet meer in Pattaya. Sinds eind 2013 woon ik in Phuket. Ik maak nu vooral Franse stijl gedroogde worsten, salami en dergelijke. Kaas maken is hier een probleem omwille van het feit dat ik hier geen rauwe melk kan vinden.
Je kan me op Facebook onder "xxx" of "xxx" vinden (denk ik, met een foto van mij, met gitaar, in 1976 als avatar). Daar kan je wel een paar foto's vinden.
Mijn email adres is xxx. Als je je email adres doorstuurt kan ik je wat foto's doorsturen, ook van de kazen die ik maakte.
Ik kijk er naar uit een email van jou te ontvangen.
Tot dan,
Eric.
