A guide in making cheese and setting price...

Definitive Cheese Making Guide - added 4/02/2012

What you need:
A cheese curdle - (see The forgery for how to make and costs)
Milk - from cows (see ranch - cow)
Stamina - 500 less decreasing amount due to skill increase (see skills increase section here).

Milk to cheese ratio:
For every level of your cheese curdle, the requirements of milk increase and the gains in cheese increase.

Cheap Curdle = 30 milk/3 = 10 cheese
Normal Curdle = 33/3 = 11
Advanced Curdle = 36/3 = 12
Mastser Curdle = 39/3 = 13
Grand Master = 42/3 = 14
Grail Master = 45/3 = 15

For every 20% skill level increase you have the chance of getting an extra cheese per level.

Skills increase:
to be added

How the proccess works:
1. First you must equip your cheese curdle, warning: once equipped you cannot un-equip
2. Pour in your milk - you will find this in your home, in the same section where you make meals.
3. Use 500 stamina to churn your cheese - however, even your first batch will cost less stamina than this (see skills increase section).
4. You will need to wait 7 days once your cheese in churned for your cheese to mature, unless you use a cheese potion (see guide on herb gathering and alchemy - post 2).
5. Once your cheese is matured you can sell it on the market, or turn it into meals to eat or sell.

Benefits of eating a cheese meal:
You gain .02 in your luck skill for each cheese eaten.

How to work out the costs of selling your cheese:
1. Cost of curdle devided by amount of cheese (as a guide: you use/will use your cheese curdle 10x so: cheap curdle x 10 x 10 cheese per time = 100 cheese):
2. Cost of each item produced from the cow: Cost per milk (considering there are 103 items produced by the cow: 92 milk, 8 meat and 3 hides): add 2a to 2d together)/103 items =
2a. Cost of cow
2.b Stamina used milking your cow (20 stamina x 23 milking devided by the amount of milk gained per cow 92: (20 x 23): 460 stamina x .005 bronze =
2c. cost of stamina to slaughter = **stamina x .005 bronze =
2d. Cost of knife durability = cost of knife devided by total durability points =
3. Stamina used to churn your cheese: *** stamina x .005 bronze =
4. Cost of potion: =

Piece of Cheese costs: adding steps 1 to 4 together and deviding by amount of cheese made.

How to work out the cost of selling your cheese meal:
Stamina used x cost of cheese.

***There is an alternative way to work out the per milk price in the cow guide.
