The Lekue Cheese Maker consists of three main parts:

1. Base Container: A white, heat-resistant container used for heating milk and mixing ingredients.
2. Colander/Strainer: A green, perforated basket that fits inside the base container, used for straining the cheese curds from the whey.
3. Капкак: A green lid that covers the colander and base container. It features two convenient measurement lines for precise acid measurement (lemon or vinegar).

Follow these steps to make fresh cheese using your Lekue Cheese Maker:

Step 1: Heat the Milk

1. Remove the lid and the green colander from the white base container.
2. Pour 4 cups (1 liter) of fresh milk (cow's milk, goat's milk, or soy milk) into the white base container.
3. Place the base container with milk into the microwave. Heat for approximately 14 minutes at 800W, or until the milk reaches the desired temperature (without the lid).

Step 2: Add Acid

4. Once the milk is heated, remove the base container from the microwave.
5. Use the green lid to measure your chosen acid. The lid has two lines: one for lemon juice and one for vinegar. Fill to the appropriate line.
6. Pour the measured acid into the hot milk in the base container.
7. Stir the mixture gently with a spoon. You will observe the milk immediately beginning to separate into curds and whey.

Step 3: Add Flavorings (Optional)

8. If making plain cheese, skip this step. For flavored cheese, add desired ingredients such as 1 teaspoon of salt, crushed garlic, or sautéed spinach (as demonstrated in the video).
9. Stir the flavorings into the curd mixture.

Step 4: Rest

10. Allow the mixture to sit uncovered on your countertop for 30 minutes. This allows the curds to fully form and separate from the whey.

Step 5: Strain the Cheese

11. Place the green colander over a sink.
12. Carefully pour the curd and whey mixture from the white base container into the colander. The whey will drain through the perforations, leaving the cheese curds behind.
13. Use a spoon to gently flatten the top of the cheese curds in the colander.

Step 6: Mold and Chill

14. Insert the colander containing the cheese curds directly back into the white base container.
15. Place the green lid on top of the assembled cheese maker.
16. Refrigerate for at least one hour to allow the cheese to firm up and set its shape.
