Product Information

If it’s a waxed rind and it’s flipped in your cellar a couple of times per month, you can maintain even aging of the cheese and could potentially age it for months or years! Since the weave of the material is pretty tight (it has to be to keep the grounds out of your coffee), you’ll find it does a beautiful job of straining other foods. At Cheese Grotto, our mission is to help cheese lovers enjoy their wheels and wedges to the fullest. It’s still teeming with the beneficial microbes—bacteria, yeasts, and molds—that transformed it from pale, flavorless curd into rich, aromatic cheese. Use a rubber band to secure the fabric over a bowl so it’s held taut while you pour and be sure to pour liquids through the fabric slowly so they have time to work their way through.

It won’t catch quite as many of the fine particles as cheesecloth, so you need to choose the sieve that makes sense for the recipe.Those don’t need to come up to room temperature before eating, since you’re getting ready to melt them anyway. This means it can’t release gases like ammonia, which can build up and create unpleasant flavors and aromas in your cheese. If you’ve ever worked with cheesecloth before, you know just how quickly it wears out and how difficult it can be to clean. Whether you have disposable coffee filters or a reusable one, either will work in place of cheesecloth when straining.

The French are renowned for their love of cheese, so it's no wonder they've developed the ultimate cheese preserver. It uses natural materials like wood—the same materials cheesemakers use to age cheese in their caves. It creates the humidity your cheese needs to taste its best and extend its shelf life, and it looks great while doing it.For example, if perfectly clear, seed-free jelly is important to you, using a fine wire sieve won't bring you the results you want. Cheese paper—and cheese storage bags, which are pre-folded pouches made from cheese paper—is a good option for all the reasons plastic isn’t. Plastic wrap is fine for commodity cheddar cheese, which actually ages in big, vacuum-sealed blocks, and fresh mozzarella wrapped in plastic for consumption in a day or two is no big deal.
