Off the Wall Cheese Press Plans
365-Day Happiness Guarantee
Helping Cheese Makers Since 1978
Description
Our press plans will help you make your own lever-style press. You will be able to accurately measure your pressure and use any type and size of mold. With a little time and some simple woodworking, you will have a very convenient and easy to use cheese press.
Note: If you are unable to locate the metal bracket specified in the plans, our tech guy, Jim, recommends using a butt hinge with pin, mounted horizontal on the wall. You will be able to pull the pin to remove the weight bearing lever arm for storage.

Easy Peasy!
I'm so pleased with my press! I don't have a wall that would work, so I really appreciate other posters' photos and descriptions for making a free- standing unit. The base board is 3/4" oak. I noticed it began to flex/pull upward when I exceeded 100 pounds. It was still...read more

Easy To Use Cheese Press Plans
In one simple, easy to follow sheet. Everything you need to know to build your own press. I adapted the plans - with a slight change (no wall attachment) - no problem at all. What I needed to know was there. The price is right too. Thanks!
