Crafting[]
Step one of the cheese crafting process is outlined on the Cheese Vat page. Once the cheese is ready, you remove it from the cheese vat with a cheese cloth.
Next, the curds must be dried. Right click while facing the underside of a block to place the hang the cheese curds to dry. If you have a pancheon beneath it, it will catch the drops of whey that fall from the drying cheese curd.
Once the curd is dried, you can right click it to pick it up. Then you can place it in the cheese press to press it into an unaged wheel of cheese.
After the cheese has been pressed in the cheese press it must be placed and aged. If it's cheddar, monterey, or provolone then it must be waxed to start the aging process. Right click the placed cheese wheel with the appropriate wax brick to coat it in wax so that it can age. There are currently ten types of cheese wheels and slices. (Also see ricotta cheese).
