Sounds yummy....but.....that seems like a lot of rennet and culture. I use 3 drops of veal rennet in a four gallon batch of chevre, and stir for one minute. I use about 1/4 tsp of powdered culture (MA19 from www.dairyconnection.com) for the same four gallons. Let it sit for 24 hours at room temp, then strain for about 6-7 hours.

Maybe the higher amounts since you are pressing it?

It's also a liquid culture, and I might have actually gotten the amount of milk wrong...

Ah, yes, liquid culture you do need much more.

It's called rennet, and for this recipe make sure you get liquid culture. You can get it from multiple places such as http://hoeggerfarmyard.com/xcart/ and other cheese supply stores...
