Lancashire (Beacon Fell PDO)Beacon Fell Traditional Lancashire Cheese
Cow milk is set with starter and rennet, and the curd is broken and drained on tables until it is acid enough. Some curd is held for one or two days, then mixed with fresh curd, milled, salted at about 2.5 % and lightly pressed. The cheese is matured at least 3–4 weeks and sold mild (creamy) or mature (tasty). Made in 7 steps over 22 days – 23 days. The longest step, mature, takes at least 21 days (Defra 2023) and runs at 16 °C (Sanders G.P. 1953). Salt is 2.5 % (Defra 2023). Lactic starter culture does most of the fermenting.
Amounts from a sourceThe specification gives the salt rate but no batch size. Cheese is made in traditional cylinders or blocks of any size, bandaged, waxed, buttered or vacuum packed.

What makes this one different
Lancashire mixes curds of different ages. Curd held one or two days is blended with the day's curd at milling, which gives the loose, buttery body that a single-day cheddared curd does not have.
Milk
Full-fat cow milk from Lancashire
Ripening
At least 3–4 weeks; sold from 1 month; fully mature at about 6 months
Composition
At least 48 % fat in dry matter; at most 48 % moisture
Preston received its first royal charter for fairs in 1179, where north Lancashire farm cheese was sold. In the late 1800s Joseph Gornall of Garstang toured farms for the county council to teach one method; it was followed in the 1956 Ministry handbook. Before the Second World War over 200 farms made it; by 1948 only 22 did.
