I tried it but the recipe calls for too much condensed milk and lemon juice (6 oz?). The cake taste like the Keg's but it was too liquid, it was almost like pudding.
If you over beat cream cheese you can literally whip the water right out of it causing it to be too runny, I've done it before with frosting and it never re-sets to the semi-firm state you want.

far too soft - unsure what to decrease ... the condensed milk?

Anyone who uses Philadephia cream cheese and says this tastes exactly like the cheesecake at The Keg, they have no sense of taste whatsoever. Please specify what kind of cheese you use because with Philly, this tastes nowhere close to the one at The Keg.
I used Philly and it was perfect! Only tip I would give it to make it days (at least 4) in advance, as it sets it tastes more and more like the keg cheesecake.

We found the only reason it wouldn't set is we did not put enough lemon juice in thinking it would taste too lemony. Boo boo. It;s the lemon that makes it set. Excellent since then.

Best Cheesecake I’ve ever made! Everyone in my family loved it. If it’s not firm enough, leave it in the fridge for 24 hours. That’s what I did!
