Well, decided I could put the canned ham/beans into the pantry, off the table. I always "watch" meats a little longer than veg. Now there's room for something else. Deciding for today -- can some milk or make cheese 🤔 gotta "do" some milk for frig space.

5 qt of milk. Looks pretty 😁

Prev try I was told bring to pressure, 10# for 10 min
Wasn't good. Too "cooked" & separated similar to curds/whey. Did I wipe rims with vinegar??? Habit.

Oh well, chickens didn't care.

This time, room temp milk & canner water. Bring to steam, bring to pressure and immediately turn off. Cool to zero pressure, remove. For certain, I wiped water on rims😁 will test one in a month or so. 🤷

Milk in pan to make cheese. Taking a break, just got dry clothes off line & folded. I need a break :old
