Cheese Wax is especially made for coating cheeses. It helps prevent unwanted mold growth while retaining moisture in the aging cheese. This wax is pliable and will not become brittle as will pure paraffin wax.CONTAINS: A formulation of paraffin and microcrystalline wax food grade coloringYIELD: One pound will wax approximately 12-20 cheeses when brushed on.DIRECTIONS: It is safest to melt wax in a double boiler so that it is not subject to direct flame. Never leave melting wax unattended. Wax can explode at high temperatures. Heat wax to 210F. Wax can be brushed onto a dried and chilled cheese with a natural bristle brush (anything synthetic will melt) or you can very carefully dip your cheese into the wax pot one side at a time (it can get very slippery). Two thin coats are preferable to one thick coat. Be sure to fill up any air spaces as mold needs air to grow.When you are ready to eat your cheese the wax is simply peeled off and can be strained through Butter Muslin to be reused over and over again.STORAGE: Store in cool place away from any high heat. Will keep indefinitely.WAXING STORE BOUGHT CHEESES: Wow wax is flying off the shelf here! Many people are trying to prepare for a different type of future. Here is our short explanation of waxing store bought cheese.Usually cheese bought in the grocery store is an already aged to perfection finished product. Waxing it in small pieces may cause some problems. If a cheese is not turned on a regular basis gravity will cause all the moisture to fall to the bottom causing a mushy mess under the wax. We would suggest you buy whole wheels or make your own cheeses and after waxing them turn over at least once a week to prevent problems. We also suggest you air dry your cheese for 2-3 days prior to waxing.After all cheese is a living breathing food ENJOY!
