Use all cream for the richest tasting cream cheese. If you're looking to make a lower fat cream cheese, we suggest using all whole milk. **Q: How much cream cheese does this culture make?** A: Each of the 4 packets can culture between 1 qt and 1 gal of milk/cream. Yield will vary depending on the amount of milk fat, how long you strain the curds from the whey, etc., but generally you can expect ~3 cups/1.5 lbs. cream cheese from a gallon. **Q: How long will it take to make a batch of cream cheese?** A: Before adding the culture, you need to heat the milk/cream to 86°F no faster than 1°F/min, which can take 30–40 mins for a gallon. Once you've stirred in the starter, it needs to culture for 12 hours. Then, it will take 6–12 hours to drain the whey. **Q: Do I need any special equipment?** A: Nope! Everything you need is probably already lying around your kitchen: a large stainless steel pot with lid, a non-aluminum mixing utensil, a thermometer, a cheesecloth or butter muslin, a colander, and a bowl. Cheese salt optional. **Q: What should I do with the leftover whey?** A: Don't just throw it out! Whey can be used as cooking liquid for potatoes, rice, grits, pasta and grains; as a starter culture for fermenting vegetables; as a nutrient boost in smoothies or drinks; to make whey cheese; or added to compost. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cultures for Health Cream Cheese Starter | 4 Packets Non-GMO Direct-Set Culture | DIY Spreadable Cheese, Perfect for Bagels, Appetizers, Cheese Dip, Cupcake Frosting & More | Vegetable Rennet Included - Cultures for Health Mesophilic Cheese Starter | 4 Packets Direct-Set Culture + 2 Rennet Tablets for Cheese Making | DIY Semi-Soft Fresh Cheese, Like Cheddar, Quark, Colby, Feta, Cottage Cheese, & More - Cultures for Health Thermophilic Cheese Starter | 4 Packets Gluten Free Direct-Set Culture + 2 Vegetable Rennet Tablets | DIY Hard Cheese, Parmesan, Mozzarella, Asiago, Romano, Swiss Cheese, & More --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/612075932-cream-cheese-starter-culture](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/612075932-cream-cheese-starter-culture) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
