Milk is difficult to store for extended periods because it spoils badly at ambient temperatures. Historically, one solution to this problem has been to make cheese, by ensuring that it spoils correctly.

I talk about various different kinds of spoiler, and explain how the wrong kind of spoiling can be avoided.

Hopefully to be followed by a cheese tasting...
