I heard an interesting episode of the 'food programme' a couple of weeks ago where they were investigating problems with some big cheese makers who'd spent a fortune upgrading and modernising their cheese making buildings, and the cheese had changed to something horrible that they couldn't sell. Apparently it was due to subtle differences in temperature, humidity, and the natural bacteria in the atmosphere.  so it sounds like it's quite an art to make a good cheese, and to then keep it consistent! _________________ Be the change you want to see in the world Back to top Ina Neepster Joined: 03 Jul 2007 Posts: 4435 Location: Kincardineshire Posted: Fri Mar 20, 2009 1:06 pm    Post subject: annepan001 wrote: yes, a missed opportunity there!  £1 million project ... wow - they must be hoping to sell a heck of a lot of cheese!!   They are. Definitely big business, and not just local. annepan001 wrote: so not the Crannach bread folk then ... or any mention of Craigmyle.   It's opposite the Crannach bakery, and they will, no doubt, be doing something with them - if only using their shop/cafe as an outlet! The connection with Craigmyle is that they will be using those premises to start off, while the new place is being built. _________________ Ina Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         NEEPS Forum Index -> Scottish Producers All times are GMT Page Previous  1, 2 Page 2 of 2   Jump to: Select a forum Welcome to Neeps----------------Say HelloSite Stuff What's in the area----------------What's on TV/RadioWhat's on?Meet Up DetailsNeeps Food Co-opScottish ProducersLocal Links The Green bit----------------Views on the newsGreen BuildingRRRR - refuse, Reduce, Reuse, RecyclePermaculture & TransitionGreen ParentingGlobal Warming, Climate Change etcGreen Health & BeautyThe Debating Chamber The Great Outdoors----------------GardeningWeather 2006 - archiveGo Wild In The CountryPetsSheep, Goats, Pigs and Horses etcPoultryweather 2007 - archiveWeather Diary 2009Weather Diary 2008 ArchiveBee Keeping Make, Do and Mend----------------The North Eats........The GarageGadgets, Gizmos and Techie StuffThe Frugal FoodieBetter Than Bought Arts & Crafts----------------Crafty StuffPhotographyPoetry & WritingsArt & HistoryDressmaking The Fun Bit----------------A Wee BletherUnder The Hammer - The Neeps Auction RoomThe Neeps EmporiumReviewsFun & GamesThe Neeps Arms  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Card File  Gallery  Forum Archive Powered by phpBB © 2001, 2005 phpBB Group
