Cheese wheel

A Cheese wheel is created by churning pats of butter or buckets of milk. A Cooking level of 48 is required. It has replaced the cheese that was made before the update. The same amount of experience is received as making cheese but the wheels are untradeable unless sliced.

Slicing cheese results in 4 experience per slice and one can obtain a random number of cheeses (5 or over) from one wheel. In order to slice a cheese wheel players must have either a bronze wire or a knife in their inventory. The higher the player's Cooking level, the greater the number of cheese they will get. A person with 99 Cooking may get over 30 cheese from a single cheese wheel. 4 cheese wheels weigh 1 kg, therefore cheese wheels weigh a 1/4 of a kilogram each.

Each piece of cheese it creates heals 20 life points, so in theory each cheese wheel could heal between 100-600 life points depending on your cooking level. So, in theory, an inventory with the maximum amount of cheese that can be held and cut (26 cheese wheels, 1 knife or wire, and an open inventory space to hold the cheese) could give you 780 pieces of cheese and heal 15,600 life points, making it possible to be very useful for money-making or training combat. It should, however, be noted that, even at level 99 Cooking, obtaining 30 cheeses from one wheel is very rare; based on the limited sample below, an average of 670 per 26-wheel inventory at level 99 would be more accurate. A cheese wheel is an excellent addition to your Temple Trekking inventory, in case of the Campsite event.

Cutting Strategy
When cutting Cheese wheels, it is recommended you have the following inventory: Use your Knife or Bronze wire on the cheese and select 'Cut all' or right-click the wheel and select Slice-all.
 * 1 Knife or Bronze wire
 * 2-4 Cheese wheels (The amount will vary on your Cooking level because you will obtain more cheese if you have a higher level.)

Always stand near a bank to deposit your cheese, and to withdraw more Cheese wheels.

Using Cheese Wheels to Make Money
The best place to make money using cheese wheels is Zanaris.

- Obtain Buckets of milk from the cow east of Puro-Puro.

- Churn into Cheese Wheels at Zanaris mill.

- Bank and Repeat.

Wearing light armour, or none at all is recommended to maintain a 'run' the whole process. After the desired amount of Cheese Wheels are obtained, begin to cut them using the recommended inventory above. Since each wheel has an average of about 9 slices each, and the Grand Exchange Price for a Cheese Slice is gp each, each wheel is worth approximately gp. Cheese is also in high demand, so it sells almost immediately.

Trivia

 * Before the Cheese Wheel was introduced, players who churned milk produced Cheese instead.
