Cheese-making is one of the signature crafting systems in Yeast ‘n Feast. You use the Cheese Press block to produce cheese wheels from milk and rennet, then place the wheel block in the world and right-click it to take individual slices — exactly like cake. Four cheese varieties are available, each with a distinct potion effect when sliced and eaten.Documentation Index

The Cheese Press
The Cheese Press is a functional block crafted from planks and other materials at a crafting table. Place it in your base, then interact with it to open its inventory.Gather ingredients
You need a Milk Bottle and Rennet as the core ingredients for every cheese variety. Rennet is crafted from thistle, and the Milk Bottle is filled from a cow. Additional ingredients (herbs, mushrooms, spices) vary by cheese type.
Load the Cheese Press
Place your ingredients into the Cheese Press. The press processes them over time, similar to a furnace or brewing stand.
Collect your cheese wheel
Once processing is complete, retrieve the cheese wheel item. It stacks to only 1, and placing it in the world creates the cheese wheel block.
Cheese wheel items stack to 1. Plan your storage accordingly if you are producing cheese in bulk.
Cheese varieties
All cheese slices share nutrition 3 and saturation 0.6. The difference between varieties is entirely in their potion effects. There are two block sizes: L (Large, likeLCheeseWheelBlock) and M (Medium, like MCheeseWheelBlock), which may affect how many slices a wheel provides.
Cheese Wheel
Slice: Cheese SliceNutrition: 3 | Saturation: 0.6 | Effect: NoneThe plain cheese wheel. No special effects — just a reliable, low-nutrition snack you can take one slice at a time. Good for replenishing hunger without wasting a full food item.
Freshwheel
Slice: Freshwheel SliceNutrition: 3 | Saturation: 0.6Effect: Regeneration I for 4 seconds (100% chance)A fresh, soft cheese. Each slice grants a short burst of regeneration — useful for topping off health passively while exploring or building.
Duskwheel
Slice: Duskwheel SliceNutrition: 3 | Saturation: 0.6Effect: Night Vision for 10 seconds (100% chance)An aged, dark-rind cheese. Each slice grants 10 seconds of night vision. Keep a duskwheel placed near your mine entrance and grab a slice before descending.
Sharpwheel
Slice: Sharpwheel SliceNutrition: 3 | Saturation: 0.6Effect: Strength I for 6 seconds (100% chance)A sharp, aged variety. Each slice gives a brief Strength I boost. Taking a slice before a fight adds meaningful burst damage, especially with a sword.

Key ingredients
Milk Bottle
Milk Bottle
The Milk Bottle is a crafting ingredient for the Cheese Press and returns a glass bottle as a crafting remainder when used in recipes. It stacks to 16. When consumed directly, it removes one random harmful (non-beneficial) effect.
Rennet
Rennet
Rennet is crafted from thistle — a renewable plant found in the world or grown. Like the Milk Bottle, it returns a glass bottle as a crafting remainder. You will need a steady supply of both for large-scale cheese production.
