About this Mod
This project adds simple cheesemaking to Minecraft that attempts to reflect traditional cheesemaking practices without adding complex mechanics or machines.
This mod adds:
- The Cask, a machine used to age cheese wheels
- Cheese Curds, a light snack for impatient cheesemakers
- Cheese Wedges, a fulfilling food made from cheese wheels
- Rennet & Salt for turning milk into curds
Use this mod if:
- You're interested in learning about cheesemaking through Minecraft
- You want a simple vanilla+ food mod
Don't use this mod if:
- You want more technical/complex cheesemaking
- You want heavy integration with other food/tech mods
To Make Cheese:
- Start by gathering milk from a cow, salt from crafting a water bucket, and rennet from cow stomachs (obtained by killing cows)
- Combine those three ingredients to make cheese curds
- If you're willing to wait, craft those curds into a fresh cheese wheel
- This fresh cheese wheel then can be put into a cask to age
- Going from fresh to regular cheese takes one in-game day of aging, and going from regular to aged takes seven in-game days. Cheesemaking requires patience!

Cheesecraft server crashes on startup – what to do?

Server lagging with Cheesecraft – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Cheesecraft consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
