David Bleckmann

David Bleckmann is an obsessed home cheesemaker. Before cheese, he worked his way through other domestic culinary crafts including making beer and wine, making jam and other preserves, pickling, curing meat, and roasting coffee. An interest in learning how food is created and a fascination with food science naturally led to a desire to learn all about the art of turning liquid milk into solid cheese.

David teaches classes and writes freelance home cheese making articles, some of which can be found in the national magazine Culture: The Word on Cheese. David maintains a blog and hosts a hobby cheese making podcast at his website, joyofcheesemaking.com.
