Still thinking on this, thinking probably crazily on a radiant cooling for at least my natural rind, mould-based cheeses (primarily, tommes). I'd thought about this with brewing, building an A/C DIY cooling loop for insertion into a home-based "Yorkshire square" fermentor. That's relatively easy, however, as I'm not building a network of pipes, and in addition, this would be for smaller "caves." The dehumidifying with each compressor cycle still bugs me (though my cave in the pic below did achieve 97% RH, fine), but more the air flow over the cheeses is a sticking point. Maybe some kind of linen or cheesecloth over the cool air inlet? Anyway, yes, late, and yes, monomaniacal is long my nature, lol.
Realized I never posted this pic, Travis. I think it might be in the vein you mentioned? OVC duct up to a horizontal duct, covered by....yes, ridiculous - a literal sock. The horizontal piece had several holes in it, and this sock diffused the incoming air more. My thought was that by mounting this on the ceiling, and using a distribution piece like this, I had a better chance to air issues to work (it was very oversized, the A/C).
At any rate, as it was. First one is hard to make out as it's really foggy, but you can see the vertical piece coming from the A/C. The Crane Teardrop US humidifiers were in place first, before I went with John's/Perfect Cheese's fogging system (which rocked - happy for his retirement but bummed I can't work with him now). The last one better shows the ceiling piece. And the awesome, sanitized, em, "cheese cave sock":
