Two more days until my batch is ready. If anybody else tries this, I would be interested to hear what kind of cheese you chose and how it turned out.

Nick - If your cheese was too smoky for you, definitely let it sit for 3 weeks. The smoke generator I use only puts out a little smoke and they are designed for this sort of thing. And the price is right too! You can borrow mine if you want to give it a try. I see your just down the road from me. You can see it sitting in the bottom of the big chief in the first picture.
