I made a cheddar, my first attempt in January of 2016 and waxed it. I had bought a small apartment fridge to age it in, but I had a problem getting the temp to steady where I wanted it. I had bought a temp/humidity gauge that was cheap and didn't work worth a toot. Temps went to 60-something, maybe 70 even before I caught it and the wax split. It looked ok, and smelled ok, but had only been aging for a short time, then it grew mold. I kept forgetting to see if I could find how to recycle the wax, and now I am ready to make a new batch, but wonder what to do to re-use the old wax. How is it to be cleaned, sterilized etc?
