Got my cold smoke adapter in the mail, so went to Costco and got 2lbs of extra sharp cheddar and white cheddar.

White Cheddar

Got the cheese cut up and onto the rack with frogmat

Then into the smoke with cold smoke adapter with a tray of ice cubes at the bottom of the cabinet.

I rolled two hours of apple and the cabinet temp never got above 79, it was low 60's outside.
Here is the final product

vacuum packed and ready for 4 weeks in the back of my refrigerator

Can't wait to try it. ;D

Zeuth you are going to love that Tillamook Special Reserve! I smoked that Vintage White before with Applewood and it was delicious. After a few weeks you will see it take on a darker color of the smoke and mellow out. At least wait four weeks before tasting. A little longer is even better ;)
