This can take from 3-12 hours depending on the final texture you want. It should then be hung for several hours to allow the whey to drain off. Once the curd is transferred you can bring the corners of the cheese cloth together and tie them off. Transfer the curds into the lined colander using a ladle or slotted spoon, allow the whey to drain off. If you would like to save the whey for cooking or other uses simply place the colander over a large bowl or pot to catch the whey. Begin by lining a sanitized colander with cheese cloth. Switch off the oven and allow the cheesecake to totally cool in the oven with the door slightly open.Now it's time to separate the solids (Curds) from the liquid (Whey).

There is also a method to make it with buttermilk starter (I haven't tried it out, yet): The next morning, pour clotted buttermilk through a cheese cloth lined strainer, tie ends into a knot, and place (bowl with sieve) for several hours in the fridge, until drained (you can use the whey instead of water for bread baking).
