Nice color Jim! They'll be good. I'm getting a tad low as well. About 10 or so pounds left. I'm getting to the cheese that is 2 years old now. Taste is incredible!

Looks good. But why do you lay your cheese flat instead of on the edge I have seen on here to do the edge and you get better smoke. I can't say either way as I have never smoked any cheese.

Yes it’s that time of year again I’ll be doing some soon.
Yeah, I've been waiting about 2 months for the weather to cool down some. Looks like it's going to get even cooler as the week goes on. Thanks for the like
 
Looks like your set for a while!

It should hold me for a bit, but by the time i give some to family and friends I'll probably be doing another batch soon. Thanks for the like Al.

No, just vacuum seal it in a good quality bag and leave it in the fridge. I've heard of some having cheese that is 5 years old. The flavor is beyond words.

thanks Warren, yeah i asked the same question a while back and the consensus was it really doesn't matter the only reason some people put them on the edge is if they are short on space or having trouble with grill marks. thanks for the like.
