How well does it grate soft cheeses like mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese

I've grated cheddar on the coarse cylinder, and it was fine. But, since I slice rather than grate mozzarella, I have no experience with that to report.

Soft cheese presents more of a challenge. If I could give it a star rating for grating soft cheese, I'd give 3.5 out of 5 stars. Depending on the quantity of cheese, you may need to manually clear the drum. Sharp cheddar is easy. Mozzarella is more challenging. Still worth it. It grates a 2 pound block in seconds.

I do enjoy using this cheese grater. It is one of the easiest to clean and shred. I would recommend this product.

Not sure but the thing works well in my restaurant kitchen - though I do not do a lot of cheeses - I grate lots of carrots and shred lots of cabbage and I think it works great

We've been using it on Cooper sharp cheese and it works well. No problems at all.

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.

I use mine to shread bar soap, so I think hard cheeses would be fine. The handle turns very smoothly and easily, as well; very good grater.

I haven't used it on hard cheese; but, I would not see it as a problem using it for that type of cheese. Hope that helps.

I haven't tried to grate cheese, but I am sure it probably would grate hard cheese. I don't know about softer cheese, it might stick to blades. I use it instead of the food processor when I can. I sure hope I was a little help. I love it.

I am sure it will but I grate that type of cheese. It cuts all sold and hard cheeses I have tried

t,his grater works quite well with softer cheeses. realistically, no grater is perfect with soft cheeses. I use this grater almost everyday and I'm extremely pleased with it in fact more than any other I've used. Sharp easy to clean.

Yes, if it can go through hard veggies light potatoes and carrots I would. It might get sticky depending on the type of cheese I think would make neat patterns. SO go for it

It does veggies pretty well but it doesn't do hard cheeses very well my husband almost broke it pressing too hard in the blade. I would give it a 6 out of 10 for the shredding of hard cheese but veggies it's great!

I haven't tried it with mozzarella, but I have tried it with some slightly soft cheeses, and it did fine. I would suppose that if you had the mozzarella very cold so that it is as firm as possible, it would grate OK on this grater.

You might be okay with softer cheese, but make sure it's properly chilled, maybe even try partially freezing it. I could see it gumming up the works easily. In general, the blade kinda stinks.

I think that this would probably work better for hard cheeses than soft, to be honest with you. Soft cheeses tend to "catch" on the slicer & get pulled by the edges of the slicer. I love mine!

The spice grater would be the one you want for a nugget of nutmeg. The grates are smaller & sharp enough to finely grate nutmeg, ginsing etc. This larger one is lovely for Parmesean cheeses, zesting limes or lemons etc. Not for soft cheeses. I use mine all the time!

I have really had good luck with mine. I tried to grate all my "Italian" type cheeses like this. Hope it works out well for you.
