Aging Barrel Artisan Goods
Finish compatible artisan products in an Aging Barrel when you want aged goods for a goal or sale.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Aging Barrel Artisan Goods
Farm artisan area; place the Aging Barrel indoors in a shed or cellar to receive its indoor speed bonus.
Before you go
- Farming progression to the Aging Barrel unlock
- A compatible finished artisan product
- Storage for goods waiting to be aged and collected
Farming steps
- Advance Farming until the Aging Barrel is available, then craft or place it using the recipe you have unlocked.
- Check the machine’s accepted inputs and select one of the compatible artisan goods.
- Compare the selected item with active offerings, requests, and collection needs before using it.
- Place the reserved surplus into the barrel.
- Put the machine indoors in a shed or cellar if you want the indoor production speed bonus.
- Check the barrel and collect the aged item when it is ready.
- Store the output for its goal or ship it if it is surplus.
- Keep goods intended for aging separate from raw inputs and items reserved for progression.
- Use the in-game accepted-input list; being an artisan good does not automatically make an item ageable.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat for compatible inputs while you have machine access and a supply of finished goods. The barrel is unlocked through progression, and it does not accept every artisan product.
Common mistakes
- Loading an unsupported product: confirm that the barrel accepts the item first.
- Aging the last copy needed for a bundle or request: reserve that copy before processing.
- Expecting the indoor speed bonus outdoors: place the barrel inside a shed or cellar.
When to stop or switch
Stop aging when your target stock is ready or when a compatible product is needed in its current form for another goal.
