Which one do you prefer and why?  LR, SR-3, ARN, PLA, FR22

It depends on what you want it to do. Here is where I buy mine and a description of the differences.  I tend to lean toward SR3 for Taleggio and Epoisses but have used the PLA for Muenster. 

Here are two pictures of the results of the two.

I've used PLA in a lot of my semi-soft, semi-hard, and hard cheeses. I like the protection and results it gives to the cheese. Very consistent. Also, instead of trying to guess what combination of rind & paste development cultures will work, PLA is "one stop shopping" that provides a proven solution.
