Hello Everyone,
A couple days ago, I purchased an AMNPTS with the main intent of cold smoking. When the opportunity presented itself to try it out I figured I would give Cheese a go. It was a lovely cloudy 62 degree evening after an all day rain. I had an 8oz block of Mozzerella and an 8oz block of Sharp Cheddar. I chunked them into 4 pieces each, Fired up the AMNPTS with the Peach Pellet blend that came with my purchase. I used my Home made Mini-WSM for the smoking vessel. I rotated each block 1/4 turn every half hour or so. I took the cheese off after 2hrs and 45 minutes. I was pleased with how it looked and smelled. Now I have to be patient to let it mellow for 3-4 weeks. I will be vacu-sealing it tonight. I was a bit concerned as there was a bit more smoke from the tube than I was anticipating. Not sure if that was due to too much airflow? Thanks for checking in. Comments and Critiques are welcome.
