What kind of cheese? Cheese is delicious imo but I would be scared to make my own 
From scratch (i.e. start with milk and rennet)
Two kinds:
queso fresco and mozzarella (more like string cheese)
Gonna give a stab at some cheddar maybe 
mozzarella or more of a oaxaca? would love to make cheese. where do you buy milk? do you need (prefer to use) expensive equipment?
i would like to make a brie or camembert type. not sure if i will need a cave. also a torta de casar.
closer to a oaxaca than an italian mozzarella.
Bought the milk from Call Hall (NOT ultra-pastuerized!)
The only fancy equipment I used was a 9 qt stock pot to cook the milk in. You will also need some rennet (easy to find) for the mozz.
Takes about 30 min to make mozzarella (1 Gal of milk = 12 oz of cheese)
