Keg formulas

Wine = fruit base price x 3. Juice = floor(vegetable base price x 2.25). Coffee is 150g per 5 beans and does not receive Artisan.

Best Keg items

Preserves Jar formulas

Jelly and Pickles use base price x 2 + 50. Crop quality does not change the finished jar value.

Best Jar items

Machine choice

Kegs usually win on high-value fruit. Jars are fast and often better for low-value crops or limited machine counts.
