Capri Artisan Cheese Press Kit
Complete With Cultures and Cheesecloth
Easy to Use and Easy to Clean
The Capri Artisan Cheese Press Kit will start you on the wonderful journey of making delicious, healthy cheese for you and your family. The cheese press is made from quality drinking water PVC pipe, USDA approved HDPE food grade plastic, and a strong steel pressure spring. It is very simple and easy to use, and even easier to clean with everyday dish washing soap. The Capri Cheese Press uses a hoop that is approximately a 8" tall and 6" in diameter, so you can make large, medium, or small size cheeses, depending on how much milk you want to use.
The HDPE pressure plates are guaranteed to NEVER BREAK! Other press makers may claim that only metal pressure plates will never break, but that simply is not true. I've made cheese with my own exact same press for over ten years, and the pressure plates are still going strong.
The 6" circular disk can press the curds from about 5 gal (18.9 liters) of milk. The Capri Cheese Press is strong, durable, and will give you many, many years of service. Both the bottom press plate and the 6" press disk are guaranteed not to break under pressure. The bottom press plate also has rubber bumper feet, so it will not scratch the surface on which it is placed.
While most hard cheese recipes call for a final pressing pressure of 50 lbs, the regulated spring in this press is rated at 75 lbs of pressure,
so you do not need to fully compress the spring to achieve the desired pressure. The instructions that come with the press describes how to turn the handle to regulate the amount of pressure.
The cross beam-handle is made of attractive, solid red oak and will not bend or break. It has three coats of polyurethane finish and can
be safely washed in regular dish washing soap. A very small amount of assembly is required, and the easy assembly and how to use instructions are included in the kit.
