l33tmaan Posted May 19, 2021 Report Posted May 19, 2021 Another way to phrase this is "let me seal liquids in barrels to extend their preservation time in a manner similar to sealing crocks". Right now there's not really a good form of long-term liquid preservation. Not that there needs to be at this moment, but it's going to be very welcome if/when alcohol and other drinks are added.
Maelstrom Posted May 19, 2021 Report Posted May 19, 2021 Or possibly add the ability for milk to spoil and subsequently sealed in a barrel to extend it's shelf life?
l33tmaan Posted May 19, 2021 Author Report Posted May 19, 2021 I'm confused. Doesn't milk already spoil into curdled milk?
Maelstrom Posted May 19, 2021 Report Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) Not sure. To be honest I don't have direct experience with milk yet, and commenting only from watching youtubers/streamers show that there isn't spoilage of milk in their game play. [edit] - Is curdled milk the precursor for "converting" it to cheese? Edited May 19, 2021 by Maelstrom
l33tmaan Posted May 19, 2021 Author Report Posted May 19, 2021 Ah, maybe. I've only ever cheated cheese in. Cheesed it in, if you would. 1
Jessica O. Posted May 19, 2021 Report Posted May 19, 2021 I've made cheese! So milk does indeed spoil over time, but that's not how you make cheese. I've never let milk spoil, but presumably it'll just become rot or something. Notably, milk in buckets does not spoil, only milk in barrels, if you liter your base with bucket you can store immortal milk. (or, at least, I assume this because a bucket of milk does not show a spoil timer) To make cheese you seal a full barrel of milk (5 buckets) with 2 pickled veggies for 5 days and THAT makes curdled milk. Then you add some salt and seal for a day and that makes cottage cheese. Then you gather the cheese in a linen square (twice from a full barrel) and put it on the ground, and use a stick to squeeze it into a cheese wheel. (NOTE: the in-game guide doesn't tell you this step, I had to read the wiki. a Proper cheese guide really should be patched in...) Then you salt the cheese wheel with R-click THEN you put the cheese on a shelf to ripen, it takes like, 3 months. And THATS how you get cheese. 2
l33tmaan Posted May 19, 2021 Author Report Posted May 19, 2021 Milk should still spoil in buckets, even if it doesn't show a timer. Looks like it turns to rot, not curdled milk. Good to know making yogurt isn't as easy as I thought. 1
Jessica O. Posted May 19, 2021 Report Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) The expanded foods mod just added yogurt yesterday! I'm excited. [Edit] Oh wait, it's you! thankyou so much for the amazing mod! Out of the 30+ I play with, expanded foods is what really MAKES the game for me. Edited May 19, 2021 by Jessica O. 1
Maelstrom Posted May 19, 2021 Report Posted May 19, 2021 Lesson learned - store milk in buckets until ready to craft or consume. Got it!

Maelstrom Posted May 20, 2021 Report Posted May 20, 2021 Is it 3 months or does it use a set number of in-game days that adds to three months given default settings?
