Beer Brewing Automation

Beer Brewing Automation is a multiple level skill from the School of Body allowing one to brew Beer without having to be near the beer kettle for every stage of the brewing.
One must first learn Beer Brewing Science, which is learned automatically upon barrelling a beer after the release of this skill.

Use

Scheduling Ingredient Addition

• Click the "Beer" button, and then click again to refresh the window and show the "Schedule" menu
• Each scheduled step requires 1 Candle and 1 Rope, plus the ingredients.
  • After entering in the ingredient and the quantity, you must set the time: "After how many seconds" Please note that the prompt should read "At how many 12 second ticks remaining". If you want the timer to add the finish ingredient 12 seconds from the end, enter 1.
    • Entering 100 will instruct it to add the ingredient when 100 ticks are remaining, or at 1200 seconds.
    • Entering 5 will instruct it to add the ingredients with 5 ticks remaining, at 60 seconds.
    • Entering 1 will instruct it to add the ingredients with 1 tick remaining, at 12 seconds.
    • For other timings, divide your desired number of seconds remaining by 12.
• Once the item is scheduled to be added, it is removed from your inventory. The schedule can be reviewed before the brewing process is started.
• Before brewing has started, there is also the option to "Reset" the schedule. Scheduled material is returned to the player's inventory (not candle and rope).

Scheduling Seal Times

• Requires a Sand Timer, made from an Hour Glass, and Level 4 Beer Brewing Automation
• The timer counts in seconds, from the beginning of the brewing process (1200 seconds)
• The fermentation stage lasts a total of 2400 seconds.
• If your desired seal time is at 2100 seconds remaining, you will need to do some math:
  • 2100 seconds is 300 seconds into the fermentation stage.
  • add together the 1200 seconds of the brewing stage plus the 300 seconds into the fermentation stage to get a total of 1500 seconds.
  • You need to instruct the sand timer to seal the kettle 1500 seconds after the batch of beer is started.
• The interface will show that the kettle seals as soon as the fermentation stage begins. This is to prevent the player from clicking the "Seal" button and confusing the microbes.

We are still collecting data on what quality of Hour Glass is needed to produce Sand Timers that are adequate. Please make note of your Hour Glass quality and the length of Sand Timer produced from it.
