This page is a work in progress. It will be updated as more recipes are determined.

The goal of this guide is to give brief descriptions of how to make alcoholic beverages.

This guide is for making alcoholic beverages only. There are other pages on the wiki for learning how to make affinity beverages. Affinity beverages do not require fermentation.

• Each grape produces 0.27kg of juice.
• Maple sap produces the same kg of maple syrup.
• A small wine barrel holds 45kg of liquid.
• It takes 83.33 grapes to make 22.5kg of juice.
• It takes 22.5kg maple sap to make 22.5kg maple syrup.
• The unfermented wine recipe requires equal parts juice and maple sap. Therefore, 22.5kg of juice and 22.5kg maple syrup become 45kg of unfermented wine.
• A fruit press can hold 2.0kg of juice max.
• Press 7 grapes at a time to produce 1.89kg of juice. If you press more than the fruit press can hold the extra liquid is lost.
  * The fruit press takes damage as you use it.
• QL of the fruit press appears to only affect success rate of making juice, which is a non-issue once you have some skill.
• Green grapes grow on the north half of the map, blue grapes grow on the south half of the map.
• Use tree planters for maple trees and bush planters for grape bushes to be able to harvest every few days.
• Bush planters default to green grapes. You must use source salt to flip a planter to blue grapes after it has been sown.
• Carry satchels to put grapes in so you can carry more. I keep satchels in my backpack for this purpose.
• Carry a barrel to offload sap.

Harvest green or blue grapes from grape bushes with a sickle. Harvest maple sap from maple trees with a small bucket.

Once you have grapes and sap, you're ready to begin processing them.

Press grapes (7 at a time) using a fruit press to make grape juice. Transfer the juice to a wine barrel after each pressing. Cook maple sap in a cauldron to make maple syrup.

Combine equal parts grape juice and maple syrup to make unfermented wine. Move the unfermented wine to a small wine barrel.

• Fruit wood scrap makes vinegar, not wine.

Get a wood scrap. Activate it in inventory by double clicking it. Right click the small wine barrel with the unfermented wine in it and Create, Fermenting Wine. This seals the barrel for fermentation.

Store the small wine barrel and check it periodically for completion of the fermentation process. Fermentation time takes approximately 5-7 real time days.

Brandy is made from red wine.

Cook red wine in a cauldron to make undistilled brandy.

Add undistilled brandy in the boiler of a still to make brandy, which starts to appear in the condenser. You will need to keep the still fueled for the process to complete. It will take many hours. If the still goes out, simply relight it to continue the process of distilling.
