Cheese is an Artisan Good made from the Cheese Press, taking 3.3 hours. Using Milk will produce normal quality Cheese, while Large Milk will produce gold quality Cheese.
Cheese can be placed inside casks to age which increases quality and value. While inside a cask cheese can go above "gold star" quality to reach "iridium star" quality. Iridium star level quality doubles the base level value of an item.
Aged Values
Cheese can be placed inside a Cask to age from normal quality to silver, gold, and eventually iridium quality. Iridium quality doubles the base sell price of Cheese.
Normal, silver, and gold quality Cheese can be prematurely removed from a cask at any time by striking the cask with an Axe, Hoe, or Pickaxe. As of PC v1.11, striking a cask that is ready to harvest (with iridium quality Cheese) with an Axe or Pickaxe will crash the game.
