Using the Brewing Barrel

If your Brewing Barrel is powered up, you can start brewing.

To make Malt Ale and Corn Ale, you need to fill the barrel with Purified Water. Open your Brewing Barrel menu. Place the Purified Water in the topmost row.

Put the ingredients for the recipe you're making in the second row of the Brewing Barrel menu. You can add up to four different ingredients if you want to brew multiple recipes.

Once you put the ingredients in the barrel, it will start brewing. Come back later to collect your freshly brewed item. It will be in the bottom row of the menu.

Ingredients can spoil while in the barrel, so don't leave too many inside.
