Comment on Curious about making cheese

I only make paneer, Finnish juustoleipää, and the occasional mozzarella. All of which are very quick cheeses, and they require no climate control.
For my paneer I gave up on my fancy cheese press and put weights on top of the molds, I can fit two molds in a baking pan (to catch the whey) on my counter.
I know the most common climate control used in novice cheese making is a wine fridge.
wine fridge
I find this out mere days after seeing a wine fridge sitting by the curb and thinking “ah what would I use a wine fridge for”
For making cheese!! Argh if only I knew
Chances are it was broken I guess, and it wouldve needed a thorough sanitizing which is never fun

Thank you for excellent tips, I guess I have to figure out what to cook with paneer next ;)
The two dishes I make the most with it are shahi paneer (I almost always add a cup or three of frozen peas) and buffalo ranch paneer wraps.. The first dish I made with paneer though was saag paneer.
