good question, u can't make pizza without it
I'm wondering too.. I found some cheese cloth.. but don't seem to find any way to make it.. I read somewhere you should be able to make yogurt cheese at first but i don't seem to find neither option in crafting or a magazine for that.

Not yet.
Though for proper hard cheese (irl) you would need rennet and starter cultures and maybe another specific components like calcium chloride.
Milk+vinegar+cheesecloth can only make paneer.

Given that rennet traditionally is harvested from veal, and there are plenty of cheeses that use no cultures but what is in the raw milk (parmigiano reggiano comes to mind), I expect to see cheese by 42 stable. I fully expect someone to mod it in sooner. We have the cows and if people want to go as far as culturing existing cheeses in the world to get cultures for specific strains of cheese, I'm sure they could, with a good cheese magazine.

Come to think of it, rural Kentucky ought to have century-plus old family sourdough starters in a lot of homes. If we're going back to basics in crafting, then needing to loot yeast for bread ought not be the only way, and sourdough ought to be a thing.

I think parmigiano reggiano still use a starter with lactic acid bacteries.
It depends on Is the cheese "missing recipe" or "suggestions". It will not be added in 42 in second case since each major release is feature-locked.

I guess I haven't tried taking a fridge up a rope ladder yet.

Am strong though, so maybe climbing is easier?

The trouble is getting the generator up there. Can't climb while carrying it, those occupy the hands regardless of encumbrance. You have to build stairs, carry the genny up, then remove stairs. Leave the Gen on the ground below, you draw in ALL the zeds and can't refuel or do maintenance on it safely.

If basement expansions don't become vanilla I know the mod that's already made for it can only get better and will pick up that slack, and drawbridges would be wicked. Moats and bridges sounds cooler than floating rope dangles to me at this point, too.

I pray to God that people will come up with a way to make cheese and other dairy products! There was such a mod in build 41, and now I'm desperate because I can only make butter from milk. :Vata:

Guess a chemistry skill (strange there isn't one in the game) would be useful for making cheese. Or it could use the cooking skill.

Ricotta and other soft cheeses should be pretty easy to make. Hard cheese would be more difficult.
