I have a bradley digial smoker and would like to know the steps for cold smoking cheese.

1) What is the temp that you smoke it at? and how long?
2) also do you need to put ice cubes in the smoker all the pictures I see everybody has
   ice in the bottom of the smoker.
3) I am going to us the apple favor as that should be mild for the first time.

You should keep the cabinet at 80F or below otherwise you might end up with melted or deformed cheese.

I go for 2 hours with apple, maple, or alder.

You will need to put ice in the cabinet especially if you are not using a cold smoke adapter of some sort. The puck burner will raise the cabinet temp up to 150F by itself.

Apple will be fine. After the cheese is smoked wipe it dry then vac seal and place in the fridge for at least a month to mellow before trying.

I like to walk threw life on the path of least resistance. But sometimes the path needs a good kick in the ass.

I use the bradley cold smoke attachnment and do it on a cool night.  trying to keep temps around 70 F.  use a pan with ice in it if need be.
