To produce any variety of cheese, there are basic<br \/>\nfunctional properties of milk that need to be manipulated and<br \/>\ncontrolled by the cheesemaker. This program is designed to help<br \/>\nunderstand these processes. Understanding the functional role cultures<br \/>\nand enzymes play in your cheese make will allow you as a cheesemaker<br \/>\nto create a new style of cheese or improve on an existing recipe.<\/p>\n<p>Dave Potter has been involved in the food and dairy industry for the past<br \/>\n36 years. Dave grew up on a dairy farm in NE Iowa. He attended South<br \/>\nDakota State University and earned a BS degree in Dairy Science,<br \/>\nmajoring in Dairy Product Manufacturing. He spent his first 22 years<br \/>\nemployed with Nordica\/Rhodia with primary responsibilities in the<br \/>\ntechnical application of cultures and other ingredients used in the<br \/>\nmaking of fermented milks and cheeses. The past 14 years he has worked<br \/>\nwith his wife, Cathy, owner of Dairy Connection, Inc., Madison, WI, to<br \/>\nprovide cultures and enzymes as well as application support to<br \/>\nfarmstead and specialty cheesemakers.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop fee is $50 for members and $75 for non-members (this<br \/>\nincludes a guild membership at the cheese enthusiast level). We can<br \/>\nprobably fit as many people as would want to attend, but please sign<br \/>\nup soon so we know how many lunches to order.<\/p>\n<p>To sign up please mail your workshop payment to:<\/p>\n<p>Maine Cheese Guild<br \/>\nc\/o Mary Belding, Treasurer<br \/>\n250 Walker Mills Road,<br \/>\nHarrison ME 04040<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dave Potter from Dairy Connection will be teaching a cultures workshop on Sunday, February 19th, from 9am-4pm at the Governors Restaurant conference room in Waterville, Maine.
