So my waxed cheddar looked good and was air dried for a few days before being waxed.
It looked good for a week but then the wax slowly started inflating. A small pin hole then appeared, thankfully it didn't explode, and some whey leaked out. The whey smells fine. Just like fresh whey, so I don't think anything too nasty is going on.
Should I just leave it to do its thing and continue to mature it or should I cut the wax off and re wax it? Or is it spoiled and I throw it out?
Advice appreciated
