How to Make Cheese with Basins and Culture Bottles

Set up a basin

Place a Basin block. Variants include Andesite Basin, Basalt Basin, Blackstone Basin, Copper Basin, Diorite Basin, and Granite Basin. Copper Basins weather over time into Exposed Copper Basin, Weathered Copper Basin, and Oxidized Copper Basin. You can lock a stage with Waxed Copper Basin, Waxed Exposed Copper Basin, Waxed Weathered Copper Basin, or Waxed Oxidized Copper Basin.

Add a culture bottle

Cheese starts from a culture. The culture bottles are Regular Cheese Culture Bottle, Creamy Cheese Culture Bottle, Sour Cheese Culture Bottle, Candescent Cheese Culture Bottle, Intoxicating Cheese Culture Bottle, and Warped Bleu Cheese Culture Bottle. Add the culture to your basin along with the required base ingredient to begin culturing.

Collect and use your cheese

Once the culture finishes, collect the cheese from the basin. Use it as a filling at the Sandwich Table, or combine it with other prepared ingredients. If you want a specific cheese flavor, match the culture bottle to the result you want. Keep a Bottle Crate nearby to store empty and filled bottles so your basin area stays organized.
