Dutch Cheese Press
I haven't even used the cheese press yet and I am loving it. I have to work a music festival next week but afterwards I plan on hitting the cheese making hard just so I can put the cheese press to use. Very nice press.

Press some cheese
I didn't have a press before. I borrowed one with screws and how do you know what weight? So this new press is helpful. Lining up the lever in the slot for it is sort of tricky as it seems too short. Centering on the top of the mold with the small foot is not easy either. I underestimated how much real estate I would need to drain whey, but just about everything cheese related needs some kind of improvisation. The drain boards are kind of slippery, but whining aside, it seems like it will last a while and has pressed 3 cheeses so far, and that is what it is built for.

Excellent!
The leverage provided by thia cheese press makes it so much easier to use. No need to stack piles of weights onto a board or guess how much pressure turning screws is providing. I highly recommend it to anyone making hard cheeses.

Great Press!
This cheese press works very well! I’ve used it many times now with all type of pressing weights and times. Very happy.

Easy to use cheese press!
My wife had been using a fruit press, and saw this and wondered if it would be easier than hand cranking to get a pressure. Install was quick, provided bag (to fill with water for weight) holds 5-6 lbs easily. Multipliers were easy to understand. Overall better than the press. A couple of things would make it 5 stars- add another bag (or allow you to buy it separately) to allow heavier weights, and most importantly the small block on the end of the post needs to be bigger. My wife had a couple of molds that the block barely fit. Hard to distribute pressure over that small of an area. Maybe add another 1 or so in each direction is all it needs.

Great addition
Top quality construction. Easy to assemble and I did oil it as suggested. Great addition to my cheese making supplies.

Great press
I was able to find some dumbbells for added weight/pressure. I’m able to press any cheese now. Make sure you have space to store it when not in use.
