T,
Thanks for the comments. Glad you think I'm heading in the right direction. Pulled the cheese at about 4 1/2 hours. No sweat and dry to the touch.
Pepperjack from Sam's. I'm the only one who appreciates it in my house, so I don't smoke too much at a time. Hopefully this will last a...
Mr T,
I live in Florida so cold smoking cheese is a challenge. We might get 5-7 days of cold weather to play with. I also work so those days need to land on a Saturday to boot. Today was one of those days, but I got a late start that I won't even try to explain. Needless to say by the time...
I might offend some with what I'm about to state, but so be it.

I've heard you can make ricotta cheese from whey as well. But I never have enough to bother with it. Besides I get free eggs which is whey more important. Pun.
If you have an electric smoker you might try using it. I set the temp on the MES at 110 and let it rip for 9 hours. I used my "Smoke" to monitor the temps. Yogurt mix was rock steady at 110 the entire time. Air temp obviously fluctuated between 105 and 117. I used the timer on the MES at 9...
In addition to smoking bacon, cheese, and making Canadian Bacon I make my own yogurt every two weeks. Normally after heating the milk to 160 degrees and letting it cool to 110, I would use my warming drawer to keep it at 110 degrees for 9 hours. That worked well but I could not get two large...
