No, I have tried it once for making my milk chocolate (I am a chocolatier making chocolate without refined sugar but with Honey, dried dates, maple syrup...). Everybody is using skimmed milk. I wanted to try how different it was with whole milk. It is better but importing whole milk powder in canada seems to be crazy, so i stopped.

I have not but would be interested in knowing how to make my own cheese from this milk. I use this milk to make my homemade yogurt thicker like Greek style yogurt.

Yes, this is an awesome product for intended use.. I really use it more than any other knife to slice cheddar type cheese.

Yes, not bad, but I'd make sure the cheese was firm and cold. You would need to use the large-hole grater. This gadget works well, cleans easily, holds a good sized piece of cheese but the handle is a little awkward.

No, I haven't made cheese with it. However, if cheese can be made with powdered milk, then cheese made with Anchor Full Cream milk powder will be substantially better than cheese made with products available in American stores. Anchor milk is just richer and oddly fresher tasting than locally available brands. Ask the Chinese; they buy Anchor brand milk, not the sometimes poisonous stuff produced in their country.

How does goat cheese compare to the consistency of butter or soft cream cheese? I have used it on soft cream cheese, NOT THE WHIPPED variety, the kind in a brick. It does work spreading out a layer of cream cheese... it has some limited success on spreading creamy peanut butter.. but it works for that too. I've had this or different versions of this product for years and I swear by it.

I don't really think so for a large quantity. Its great for smaller things like zesting limes and lemons also garlic and ginger. Ive never used it for cheeses.

I haven't tried it on soft cheese, but I don't think it would work very well because the opening is fairly small. I think it would make a mushy mess out of soft cheese, but it does a stellar job on the harder cheeses!

I've tried it with my cheese straw recipe and it worked well, although I used it to make cheese crackers.

I haven't tried it out on cheese. I have used it on zucchini, apples, and sweet potatoes so far. It has worked great on those items.

I did, but I used dairy yogurt as the starter. (About 1 tbsp per pint jar) I used a carton of west soy organic unsweetened plain. The only ingredients are soybeans and water. I did not scald it, just poured into jars, stirred in yogurt and set for 9 hours. It was super thick and tasted great! I would like it a little tart-er next time, so I will go to 10 or 11 hours.

I don't now about recipes other than Google it but I made a bunch of Mac and cheese with it because we had so much pasta in our cupboard to use up. I just used it as you would on the directions to making Kraft Mac and cheese. (Boil your pasta and set aside after draining then make your sauce which consists of butter or margarine, milk and the Cheddar Cheese Powder) It came out great!!!

Yes! I have used it for cream cheese and no overheating! This is a powerful little mixer! It always helps to have your cream cheese out of the fridge for a bit also.

I've used it once and it cleaned the oven very well. I often make pizza right on the rack so I often get cheese spilled over. All was cleaned.

I have before, but found it wasn't as filling as milk. I actually use almond milk- which makes it a thicker consistency without using ice in a blender like they suggest.

I have and they turned out great! I put them in the cooker when I went to bed and set the timer to be ready when I woke up. They were fully cooked but not mushy. One note is that you aren't supposed to use any dairy if you are setting the timer, so I made mine only with water and added a touch of cream when I ate them.

I have only used it on soft cheese but don't see why it wouldn't work on hard cheese.
