      She's sat in a plastic box in the corner of the kitchen, not sure temp in there....18/20c???

      I've just bought one of these..

      https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-24V-110V-220V-Digital-Air-Humidity-Control-Controller-WH8040-Range-1-99-CV/264016133348?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=563548195155&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

      I'm going to wire this into the old chiller I've had for years to make a cave.

      Hi Guys....sorry not been around much since chrimbo as we are getting ready to move in 15 days....what with the packing??? ye gods.

      Can't wait any longer....this Stilton is only about 9 weeks old, so decided to cut it last night and taste....WOW...creamy will defo do another sometime soon. We had a Stilton over chrimbo and I have to say mine was way better....the thing is you don't know how old the cheese is when you buy it??.and Stilton is best around the 10/12 weeks stage.
      So where are your photos, Garfield?????

      Is this the recipe??..........https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5C8taIodYo

      I cocked it up on my Stilton as I used my Cheddar mould it was the only one I had at that time, which has a bottom to it. A Stilton mould is a tube which I now have ready for my next go at a blue. Moulds are easy to find on the WWW.....

      I've looked into making my own, the problem is finding a food-grade plastic pipe at the correct size.
