Alpine Dairy Cheesemaking Classes of St. Louis, MO Cheese Making Classes with Merryl Winstein

By: kathleen sneider (Jan 25, 2010)
I've attended three of Merryl's classes now - the basic cheese making and two of the all day classes. Not only was each class packed with highly useful information, it was also fun and tasty too! I highly recommend these classes to anyone interested in entering the cheese making fraternity.

Merryl is an excellent teacher - relaxed with students and her enthusiasm and interest in each of her students makes for a homey and secure atmosphere. Everyone feels comfortable to bring up any questions and share their own triumphs or disasters in their cheesemaking efforts.

These classes are not just demonstrations - each student receives hands on experience in each phase of the cheese making process. Cheeses are tasted and reviewed along the way. Classes are usually filled with a diverse group of interesting folks from as far away as Georgia and New York. I know for me some new friendships were forged during the classes and look forward to a future of cheese making.

Merryl is a treasure and the St. Louis area is lucky to have her.
