  • Add the milk to a medium-large pot with a lid and slowly heat it on the stove to a degree of around 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Whisk in the buttermilk and remove the pot from the stove.
  • Put on the lid, leaving it slightly cracked, and place the pot in a warm place in your home for 24-36 hours. Don't move the pot again. During this time the milk should thicken noticeably. Depending on the milk you used and the temperature in your home, the milk might have already thickened after 24 hours - or it might take slightly longer. In our case (our place is never that warm) it usually takes closer to 36 hours.
  • Once the milk mixture has thickened, place a strainer over a bowl and place a clean dishtowel into the strainer.
  • Now pour the thickened milk into the dishtowel and loosely tie the ends of the dishtowel together. You can use an elastic band for this, for example. The clear liquid should drip out of the dishtowel into the bowl. Let it sit like this for around 1.5 hours. If you want your quark to be "drier" you can even let it sit for longer. Depending on the size of your catchment bowl, you may have to empty the liquid every once in a while.

  • Put the milk in a large sterilized pot over medium heat. Slowly heat it to 77 F. Don't try and speed up this process or the milk will not set properly. Stir the milk gently with a sterilized stainless steel spoon to prevent scorching. Remove the pot from the heat.
  • Sprinkle the mesophilic culture evenly over the surface of the milk and let it sit for 5 minutes to rehydrate. Use a sterilized stainless steel skimmer, moving it in a gentle up-and-down motion to draw down and mix in the culture, avoiding breaking the surface of the milk. Dilute the rennet in 1/4 cup of cool, non-chlorinated water. Give the milk a gentle stir and while it's swirling, add the diluted rennet to the milk. Immediately stir the milk with the skimmer using the same up-and-down motion. Do this for about 2 minutes, making sure the rennet is thoroughly mixed throughout the milk, otherwise the milk will not set properly.Cover the pot and let it sit in a draft-free location at room temperature for 24 hours (wrap the pot in a large towel if needed).After 24 hours check the milk. Tip the pot carefully to drain off the whey on the surface.
  • If the milk is properly set it will have pulled away from the sides. Use a long, sterilized knife to check for a clean break in the thickened milk (see pics in blog post). If you can cut through it and get a clean break the milk is properly set. If it isn't, let it continue to sit and check again after 30 minutes. Repeat if needed. Use a long, sterilized knife to cut 2-inch-wide strips from top to bottom through the curd. Then follow the same process to cut 2-inch strips horizontally from side to side. Now that you've used a long knife to cut the curd vertically, next use the skimmer to cut the curd horizontally into cubes.
  • Place the curds in a colander lined with cheesecloth. Depending on the size of your colander you may need to work in batches. Let the curds drain for about 4 hours (it may be less depending on the mesh size of your cheesecloth). Let the curds drain until you get a thick, spreadable consistency. Transfer the finished quark to a bowl, give it several good stirs to break up any lumps, cover and refrigerate until ready to use. It will keep in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
