How do I sour milk?

[BecketsGD]

leaving it food storage doesnt help cause the villagers drink it

Go into the last tab in the management menu and disallow villagers from using milk (it's in both the food and water sections, so uncheck it in both places). Also, if they are using milk that suggests they either don't have enough water or don't have any higher-quality food (milk is fairly low on the food desirability list), so you might want to check on what else is being produced.

that is definitely not the case. They have buckets of water, soups, stews, potage and more. They have plenty of water. they are just greedy...lol and thank you

I'm wondering also because i've drop on the floor a bucket of milk 10/10. And the next season, it give a bucket of soured milk 0/10. Nothing on wiki yet. Can someone explain ?

I'm looking for how to do end up with sour milk also!

If you it is stored out of an inventory, then it turns into 0/10 soured milk. If you leave it in an inventory (personal, box, or food storage) then a random number of them seem to spoil. I've reloaded a save several times and each time 0 - 2 of them spoil. I haven't been able to get more than that to spoil. Which sucks, because I've got around 10 buckets of them that I wanted to turn into cheese once my cows gave me more milk in the next season.

You mean than you keep 8/10 Milk and 2/10 Soured Milk ? Do you need an empty bucket in your inventory to allow the game to create Soured Milk ?

No, I mean I have around 10 buckets (it was actually 11 buckets that I had) of 10/10 Milk, and on season change up to 2 of them were changing to 10/10 Soured Milk. On my latest test, however, I got a lot more to sour. I put 5 buckets in resource storage, 3 buckets in the food storage, and kept 3 buckets on me. On season change, 2 buckets that were on me soured, 1 of the buckets in the food storage soured, and all 5 buckets in the resource storage soured.

Edit: and my last test was stranger still. Of my 11 buckets of milk, 5 are grouped together, 2 are grouped together, and 4 are separated by themselves. I put the group of 5 in the resource storage, kept the group of 2 on me, and put 1 in each of the food storage, kitchen chest, smith chest, and workshop chest. When season changed, the milk in the kitchen, smith, and workshop chests had disappeared, and I was wondering what the hell happened. The 2 that were on me had soured, the 5 in the resource storage soured. What was crazy was that the food storage had all 4 of the remaining buckets, and they had all soured (and were now grouped).

That´s because a new item was create, the sour milk, and like all new produce item, it goes to the correct storage.

That makes sense. I would never have considered that.
