I am trying the NE cheesemaking CamBlu. This cheese has one spray PC and GC on the cheese. I have read comments in which people say they have never had success with spray inoculation. SO, I was wondering what tips those of you who've done this successfully have to offer so that I might be equally as successful.
Thanks!
I've used it and it worked very well. I believe I made a 1% brine solution and added a small amount of PC and geotrichum to it. Then I put it in a very fine mister. It's not a spray bottle really. It makes a very fine mist. I waited a few days before using it. Stored in the fridge, it seemed to work for several months, which was nice.
Thanks! Hopefully the mister I ordered will be fine enough.
I've done both adding to milk and spraying/rubbing the cheese with it and they all work. I don't tend to spray inoculate now because the cultures are big enough that I rarely finish one before I should replace it. The exception is blue (P. Roqueforti) which I culture from a commercial cheese although I'm sure I could figure out a way to direct inoculate that also.
Thanks!
