That gouda looks great. Did you paint the wax on or dip it (if dipped, that is a LOT of wax!). I waxed one cheese and gave it up and went with vacuum bagging.
I have gone through 3 presses. The one I use now is the "original", from the following site. The plans are there for you if you want to build it yourself. I've also used the "foldaway", which is nice, but the original is a tank and I like that.

I love Gavin Webber's videos. I watch every new cheese video he uploads. I made a gouda using his recipe a few months ago and it was wonderful. The whole round was gone in a week or two!
There is an Amish community not far from me so whenever I want to make cheese I can buy raw milk from them and I always get a great curd set without having to add CaCl2. If you can get your hands on some raw milk I would highly recommend it.
I think i got fatter by just looking at that cheese.
Do you plan on smoking any of it?
It looks great.
I feel hungry all of a sudden.
MRE. I always loved the Chicken ala King. nom nom.
I can't say that I love any MRE, but some of them are edible, lol.
