How to Make Double Brie Cheese at Home
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ส.ค. 2024
- This is my version of Double Brie. It is creamy, rich, and delicious once fully ripened. The use of Flora Danica as the starter culture ensures a buttery texture and feel in the mouth. I am looking forward to the taste test in two weeks time.
Ingredients for Double Brie
8 L (8 qt) Cows Milk 3.8% fat
200 mL (6.76 fl oz) Pure Cream 40-45% fat
1/4 teaspoon Flora Danica
1/16 teaspoon Penicillium Candidum
1/32 teaspoon Geotrichum Candidum
1.25 ml (1/4 tsp) Calcium Chloride in 1/4 cup water
1.25 ml (1/4 tsp) Liquid Rennet in 1/4 cup water
Cheese Salt

I just watched a guy make cheese for 40mins, and honestly, im not upset about it.
Good for you!

"you gotta allow the cheese to briethe"
Ha!
You have to cut the Australians a little slack. They have to go through life, standing upside down.
Love your videos, Gavin
Lol
I made a Brie 18 years ago.
She's off to be a vet nurse next year
🤣👍🏿🇦🇺
I'm a little allergic to brie, but it does not stop me from almost killing myself eating a whole wheel with cracker and jam 😂
Wait so you're allergic to specifically brie and not other types of cheese? I didn't know that was possible! I'm sorry to hear that though.
Mate have u ever tried Brie without the cracker (preservatives) & Jam (crappy sugars).
Many intolerance come from gluten.
Coz cheese gets fermented and loses most of its lactose anyway!!!
LOOL😂😂😂isnt that the BEST feeling ever? 😩🙌🏽🔥
@@akashtriz could be reacting to any of the other compounds in the cheese - my mom, for example, is sensitive to the casein proteins so any cows-milk cheese is out for her.

I just came by this video this was my grandmother's favorite cheese man thanks for helping me remind myself of her and everything she meant to me man
Very well explanation, I am an\ cheese making aficionado. Making cheese is NOT easy, every time there is some challenge, something different, especially when we ar using raw milk. The man explain very well how to make brie cheese. I am very excited to try it. Thanks Mister Cheese.
Did you guys hear about the explosion at the cheese factory
There was da Brie everywhere lol
I jsut found your Channel. I've been looking at MANY sites and everything but your channel is the most down to earth and well demonstrated process. I could troubleshoot some recipes. I'll keep checking more! thanks a lot! Fan from Canada ;)
That fire blanket in the kitchen is a good idea. Didn't know such a thing exists. Going to buy one for my kitchen.
As someone who grew up tasting too many cheeses to count from my grandmother I love ur channel. Hope u r well.
You're like the Straya Bob Ross of cheese.
You know what I thought to myself when I found your channel last week?
"I sure hope he does a brie soon."
Blessed are the cheesemakers.
My new favorite person. I am lactose intolerant and have IBS but this guy and his cheeses are soooooo awesome🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Suuuure you do. I bet you also have a need for attention? Maybe, just maybe only a need for attention? Well either way, good for you! Have a pat on the back for being so annoyingly aggressive with your disorders, I hope this attention is satisfactory!
Most adult humans are lactose intolerant - in fact it is the converse, lactase persistence in adulthood, that is a very interesting mutation that only occurs in the descendants of certain specific stone-age tribes. We are a privileged minority, and you are part of a completely valid majority.
IBS sucks. I live with that too - but I've found the raw A2 milk from my Dexter house cow keeps my symptoms under control.
I love how you can tell how much you care about the cheese, almost like they're babies XD when i saw the tiny tear in the surface i could tell how disappointed u were, and i was like D: but it turned out great anyway!
Yes! He loves his cheeses. Sign of a great cook. They pat their food....so much caring. Love what they are doing. It is "creating' every time! Satisfaction.
brie is probably one of my fav cheeses
Welcome to this episode of random thing in my recommended and I am now obsessed.
Thank you. That is all.
You would make a great cricket or golf commentator mate! Excellent videos
The dedication!! I'm wigless
I found out that wire racks are better than bamboo mats for maturation. They stick on bamboo and not at all on wire racks.
Thanks for the tip. I happen to have some wire racks!
Really cool to see home cheese making. We've made mozzarella and a cream cheese - both were nice - but never attempted anything more complex. Giving me some inspiration to give it a go 😋
from the way that gavin wrapped the cheese you can tell the only Christmas present he wraps is for his wife and she does the rest of it 😂
Indeed
Just realized why I love watching cheese making videos as much as soap making videos. they're both very similar. I told my husband how much I miss making things. His response, "Oh yeah? Go make yourself a drink." Lmfao!
Gavin, Thank you for these videos. They have helped give me more confidence to venture into more advanced cheeses. Just a thought -- to avoid any tearing or cracking in larger sized Brie, would not a couple of appropriately-sized wood followers permit easier flipping of the cheese before putting the mold back over the cheese? If there is any fragility in the cheese, the follower would help support it.
Yes, that would work, although I didn't have any at hand.
The cheesey family! I needed a nice relaxing cheese video to watch today, thank you.
These are great videos, I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm trying to move from the basic up a notch, but I can't go from basic to advanced yet. Your videos help me find my path. Thank you. I'm saving this for when I get to intermediate.
Am I the only one who believes that Brie SHOULD HAVE BULGING SIDES...?? I LOVE a good soft gooey Brie! 😍
I made really good Brie once.
She's an adult now
Penicillium Candidum sounds like both a disease and the cure
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for documenting this. I'm going to try making cheese for the first time in the next week or so and it helps to see it all put together.
Thanks Gavin, I've been looking forward to a good Brie video from you for awhile. I know you love all cheeses, but there is something truly magical about a good brie. Definitely my favorite.
It was a slog. This video took me over 3 weeks to make, so hope the cheese it freaking amazing!
Your effort is and will be greatly appreciated. Can't wait to see the final result / taste testing.
Can't wait to see the taste test video
blessed are the cheesemakers

By the way, I finally procured several blocks of Limburger (I had asked you about it on one of your youtube question sessions) and found it surprisingly pleasant. Yea, it has a bit of a stink to it, although not NEARLY as bad as one would be led to believe. Initially, the first block a couple of weeks before "best by date" was quite mild and tasted like a semi-soft combination of Swiss, Brie, and a hint of Cheddar.
I just had the second block just now (I'm partaking as I type), 5 days past "best by" and it has ripened nicely and almost has the consistency of a true, very soft brie at room temperature. The taste is like a gloriously more funky version of a good Brie (but not in a bad way). If you have ever had a great brie and followed it down with a swig of beer, you know the sweet-interplay between the two. The Limburger has that same quality at this stage. And yes, I am following with it a beer, for scientific purposes only. ;P
I'll try the third block in a couple of weeks. :)
I see you love what you do. Patting the brie.....so much caring.
It's so soothing listening to you and a eye treat to watch you make cheese
Craving Brie now. My favourite cheese
I am a soap maker and have always loved cheese! soap makes you feel like you are cutting cheese. My next venture will definitely have to be cheese. The videos are great. Love the music and your personality makes it very relaxing and enjoyable. Very detailed too.
You should check out one of my other channels where I have many soap making tutorials; th-cam.com/channels/PGPyGa_1gvKzHGAvnbKEQg.html
I will. I can't wait to make some cheese! I'm so hyped. I will keep watching your videos to learn the craft.
REally enjoyed the soap too. Great soaps. I like the fragrances. They sound good.
Another soap maker here! I’m also considering trying my hand at making cheese. Great video.
It’s so relaxing to watch
I love this channel, just found it today. I'm just really baffled by the comments... they're an even split of completely normal and absolutely insane. I've never seen anything like it for a food related channel. I guess something about cheese is just really divisive?
Beats me, I just keep putting up the videos
Cheese is a highly divisive topic, and has been so for quite a long time. Just read about the French-Spanish Cheese War of 1638.
my mouth is watering right now
I’ve made this cheese a few times, it’s temperamental , always nice but get it right it’s the best Brie you will eat
I would suggest, not knowing anything about cheesemaking, but as a microbiologist, wood and bamboo mats are never sterile tools to use in cheesemaking. They are very porous, and likely contain bacteria and mold spores, unlike stainless steel mats and tools.
They get sanitized. They can be boiled or sterilized with white vinegar.
Old World cheese operations all use wood for the most part, and it actually turns out to be a plus in aging, because the culture you want to cultivate populates the wood and muscles out microbial invaders. Centuries upon centuries of cheesemaking indicate that wood is fine when properly used.
@@anthonyatkinson4580 that only makes sense if a single type or variety of cheese is being manufactured. The reservoir of bacteria and mold is like a starter culture for each subsequent batch.
Our friend Gavin is cross contaminating various types and styles of cheese by using porous wood and bamboo mats.
And no, wood and bamboo cannot be sterilized with a 1 second spritz of vinegar.
@@texastrustedoralsurgeon6830 that is correct, yes. I think the "forest was missed for the trees", though. Wood has been successfully used in cheesemaking for a long time, which was the main point I was making. I think you are correct, however, when it comes to using pasteurized milk, which is what is in use here. Raw milk from a good source should already have sufficient microbial activity to protect itself, which is what has been used until recently.
I'm a new curd nerd and your videos are amazing.!!!
super video merci
Such thorough descriptions! You're a great teacher =)
hit like if you think gav got a little too cocky with that cheese mold
Love your channel so much I made my first cheese wheel because of you inspiring me
+CornyCobble thanks. Happy cheese making
Love the channel, because of you I will likely get involved with making my own cheese! One idea for your channel would be to link updated tasting videos to your cheeses. It would be awesome to see how they turned our after ripening.
Thanks for the suggestion
Wow, now I don't feel so bad about spending money at the supermarket for cheese. I ordered some equipment and I'm going to try making some Mozzarella using the microwave method. Thanks for sharing your hard work and I can't wait to see how your Brie comes out.
Well you got me, i just placed an order to make up my own kit from your website and look forward to giving cheese making a go, our family currently make wine and salami along with other cured meats so this just seems the logical next step. Even scored a decent bar fridge for $10 i plan on adding a thermostat to it so i can keep the temperature at 11.c
Hope these turn out well, Gavin! Looking forward to seeing how they turn out next fortnight!
I'm sorry for the amount I eat I will stick to buying it at the store but good video props to cheese makers out there👍
Give your cheese a good old rub.
He made a triple double brie! I used to work at Blythedale Farm in Corinth, Vermont, USA, making Brie, Camembert, Grana, and Gruyere. (and occasionally blue cheese!) My mother, brother, and sister still work there as well. We use Jersey milk for our Brie which gives it a really nice flavor.
Skellertom Jersey milk as in Jersey cows?
@@marksaggese6405 yep
Brilliantly done!
I truly enjoy your cheese making video so thank you. Could you show us how to make KASSERI Greece cheese, please.
Great videos, this Brie is on my list of things to try, Thank you!
You’re awesome 💯I love your channel ❤️😘💯
They shrank a lot more than I expected damn
Watching this so in the event of an apocalypse I can use any cows I find to make some great cheese
Bruh we're already in one
Hi Gavin! I'm so thrilled to be one of your students, I do make bread and other fine dine and now I would like to learn about making cheese, - I regard you as masterclass of cheese making and I really enjoy learning from you.
I've tried purchasing from your site and all went well but it seems there is problem with shipping to Israel although the country* is picked correctly.
Also I would love if there was an option to purchase separate items from the Camembert Kit as I already have some of the items (thermapen MK4). A nice way to implement this would be check boxes.
Thank you and looking to head on with the purchase. Thank you So very much. We love Australia! Take care at these hectic times, -Ofer from Israel.
Firm grip on the flip indeed. I made one about the size of your large basket. When I flipped, I loosened my grip taking my hand off the bottom and I lost some curds out the bottom. Lesson learned for next one.
Greeting from Scotland this is great!
Amazing Video !!!
6 weeks for cheese huh? I'll just take a flight over there for a taste 😂 definitely trying this method! Thanks for the video (and your time) :)
I found brie moulds to be too shallow. I use 2.5 ltr paint out with lids. Drill loads of holes in them and fill to the brim and put the lid on. Drill holes in the lid also. Just flip them over with the lids on and then back again. No spill and the brie comes out about 2" thick
Both Bries and Camemberts are easy to make (imo) and ripen pretty fast. Be vary of black mold when storing though.
hello Gavin, love your channel could you make a video of making cottage cheese, or cream cheese ?
Your cheese channel rocks!!
Maybe if you cut off the bottom of your 'Papa' mold... then treat Papa like you do with the Mama mold, but as the cheese shrinks, use the cut off piece (trimmed to fit just inside Papa) and a small plate, so when you flip it, you are holding the cheese in place at that end of the mold. Then you can gently settle it down to the other side while holding the plate and cut-off bit, so it never falls and risks cracking that way. Maybe make a similar flat holed bit to fit inside Mama too. I'd say use the bamboo mat, but the cheese seems to like to stick to it. Maybe a bit of cloth?
Anyways, good luck, and thanks for teaching us how this works, I can't wait to try!
G’day Gavin superb recipes, Ive just started to get into cheese making. I’m a microbiologist so find it hard to believe I haven’t attempted this before. too busy brewing 🍺 I guess?! Quick question, my cheese fridge only goes down to 10 C. I guess just slightly less time in the “cave” and keep an eye with the feel test?
Yes, 10C is okay, but watch the paste development
Hi
Good cheese
Thanks
big cheese energy
Hi, I just stumbled upon your channel and I've already binge-watched all your videos. Thank you so much. I have a few questions for you if you don't mind. My biggest concern about making cheese is milk, since raw milk is forbidden here in Canada, and non-homogenized is scarce, I was told that using 0% or 1% milk and adding 35% cream would do the job, do you agree with that? And also if I use calcium chloride with that combination, would it make it better? And finally when is it necessary to add calcium chloride, because you seem to add it in every recipe, even though you use non-homogenized milk. Thank you so much sir!
Awesome!
Thanks Gav.
Q: 1. What to do if it doesn't set? More rennet??
2. What to do if the pH is wrong: too high, do what? too low, do what?
Thanks again,
Forse in Hong Kong, trying my first Brie....
I enjoyed that video! I'll have to try it one day, look forward to how it turns out.
Thanks, Colum. Let me know how it turns out!
I love your recipes ..thank you 👍👍👍
Gostei muito, obrigado!
Love your Aussie accent. Kiwi here :)
Wow! That is a long process but cool that you can make it at home!
Imagine this guy walking into a store and filling up his cart with milk jugs.
I would say that was flippin amazing! I`m sure they turned out great. :)
Hey Gavin, thanks for the great videos, big fan. Can I request them, you include the anticipated yield for them. For example, if you start with 8 qts. of milk for a particular cheese, how large a cheese or cheeses can you expect to get out of that particular recipe. It would help in deciding what molds to use from the available stock. Thanks much.
Great suggestion!
In 'Home Cheese Making' by Ricki Carrol, Ricki says 2qts of whole milk should yield 12oz of brie. So, I assume 12qts should produce 48oz of brie.
I 'll try to make it !!!!
New curd nerd over in England ❤️
Great vids, now got me wanting to try making cheese. On the wrapping paper.... try scrunching the sheet then flatten, it will then be more flexible to wrap around the cheese.
So......origami is probably not going to be your strong suit. Great video
Cheesy locks and the three bries!!! Lol
Definitely make sure not to get a job as a gift wrapper in a store. But the Brie looks unbelievable. thank you.
There you go, you got it by the third one, it wrapped pretty well
What did you expect from a white wrapper ?
@@unixux A person that knows HOW to make this. YOU?
Gavin that's awesome. I'm trying out your recipe. I'm in the aging phase now. I've noticed the brie was starting to get some white mould after 8 hours from the second brining. Is that OK? Why do you want to slow down the riping?
maybe the temperature in your cheese cave is a bit high. But i see it has been 4 moths so, how did it turn out?
i want a SINY SHIDE DOWN T-shirt!😄
Went too cold after wrapping, shouldn't go below 6C otherwise the mould growth is stunted and you should only see proper bloom development after the 2nd week mark. Good to wrap since you're using a fridge but if you have a wine cooler, it should be left unwrapped for the whole maturation period.
I like mama Brie and papa Brie :) Thank for the video!
Can you make Gouda Cheese next ?
Hello Gavin. I have never yet made cheese but I had some white crumbly cheese, probably wensleydale under a crock with a bit of brie. This was forgotten for a fortnight or so and when I finally lifted the crock I found the brie mould had colonised the other cheese and turned it into something closely resembling brie. Perhaps the surface mould is more important than the details of the brie recipe?
crash58 you can make a cheap blue cheese for a blue cheese sauce the same way - dice up some cheap young cheese, mix it with a bit of blue cheese, and let it do its thing. The blue mould taste in your sauce will be identical to if you used a "real" blue cheese.
You should wait and post the videos when we can see the final product
With most cheeses, you will be waiting for up to a year, so no point delaying pleasure for thousands of you that could be using these recipes to make your own cheese.
Hi Gavin! Thanks for sharing. I can't figure out, what's the difference between making camembert and brie though. How do you know this will turn out as brie and not melt inside like camembert?
Yea, the difference between brie and camembert has been a mystery to me too, except that the Brie's I've have enjoyed have always been softer and better then the camemberts. But that is just my experience in my neck of the woods here in the states.
Can you make American singles? Thanks!
Very very good..thank you.ฃอบคุณคะ
