But what do I do with the whey?
Whe we did out cheese making course, they suggested using it as stock for soups and the like.
It will also freeze.

What actually happened was that it lurked in the bottom of our freezer for ages, then got thrown away.  :-\

In milk news so far I have made ricotta, or something like that.

Also made faux buttermilk to soak some chicken in.

But what do I do with the whey?
Use the whey to make scones, I don't often have access to whey, but when I make scones with it they are exceptionally good.

So I used the whey to make béchamel sauce, heated with onion, cloves and bay leaf.  Then I added the false buttermilk that some chicken was soaking it.   

It was lush over butter fried leeks.

Honestly, I'm struggling to respond to this thread in any way that won't fall foul of your employers' internet filters.

I also use buttermilk for scones. Is whey not prized by body builders & athletic types for protein?
Do not clench. It only makes it worse.

I make my scones with manky milk. It doesn't take much though, 16 pints is a lot. I'd probably do a reverse walk of shame and doorstop deliver it to some neighbours.
