Fall & Winter Classes & Events

I teach public cheese making and and private wine & cheese classes all over the Bay Area! (I no longer teach private cheesemaking classes- just pairings!) Find out more about my private classes here, or email kirstin@itsnotyouitsbrie.com with questions. As a friendly reminder, these classes fill up fast. If they’re listed but sold out, get on the school’s waiting list- sometimes spots open up. 

  • Besides my June Cheese & Wine Pairing 101 class, this summer is booked with private classes, new projects, and vacation! I am not teaching any public classes beyond this until fall.

  • Fall events will be listed as soon as planned. Thank you for your interest!

Hot & Melted: An Exploration into Cheese

  • 18 Reasons 3674 18th Street San Francisco, CA, 94110 United States (map)

Have you ever tried to make mac and cheese from a fantastic farmhouse cheddar just to have it turn out lumpy and curdled? What about the time the aged gouda cheese in your grilled cheese didn't melt? Cooking with and melting cheese has rules. In this class, we'll break down the chemistry to find out what works and why, and learn about cheese flavor pairing, so you can dream up your next cheese-tastic meal!
