'''การหมักแอลกอฮอล์''' มีสองขั้นตอนที่ต่างกันชัดเจน คือการหมักที่ทำได้ค่อนข้างง่าย เมื่อเทียบกับการกลั่นที่ซับซ้อน

ควรสังเกตว่าหลังจากกลั่นแล้ว แอลกอฮอล์จะไม่เน่าเสียในขณะที่ยังคงให้ค่าความอิ่ม ดังนั้นการเปลี่ยนส่วนเกินของวัตถุดิบให้เป็นแอลกอฮอล์เพื่อการเก็บรักษาจึงเป็นวิธีการที่เหมาะสม ควรทราบว่าสำหรับผลไม้บางชนิดจะใช้ได้เฉพาะกับขั้นตอนการหมักแอลกอฮอล์ขั้นที่สอง "การกลั่น" แต่ "ไซเดอร์" จะยังคงเน่าเสียได้ตามปกติ (ชนิดอื่น ๆ ยังไม่ยืนยันว่าจะมีการเน่าเสียตามปกติหรือไม่)<br>

== Fermentation ==

Different kinds of base ingredients can be fermented to alcohol by sealing them in a barrel for a specified amount of time. These different base ingredients will result in different kinds of alcoholic beverages, each with their own type name:

* Mead - made from honey

* Cider and Wine - made from different kinds of fruit and berry juices

* Ale - made from different kinds of flour fermented with water

All fermentation processes require at least a {{ll|barrel|barrel}}, a {{ll|Wooden Bucket|bucket}} or {{ll|Clay Forming|bowl}}, as well as the above mentioned ingredients. Some of the these are harder to acquire then others, but generally speaking fermentation should not be attempted before entering the metal age - since barrels and buckets require a saw - and establishing a comfortably safe and well outfitted homestead.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

=== Mead ===

[[File:Honey-mead.PNG|200px|thumb|right|A full barrel of honey ready for fermentation]]

Apart from the barrel and bucket, the only ingredient required for mead is honey. Honey can be acquired from bee hives, to ensure a sufficient supply of honey for both brewing and other usage, it is recommended to follow the {{ll|Beekeeping|Beekeeping}} guide and build up a well developed beekeeping enclosure.<br><br>

To ferment honey into mead, it simply needs to be transferred into an empty barrel and sealed. The tooltip inside of the barrels UI will inform about the resulting amount as well as the duration the barrel will need to stay sealed. For mead, the conversion from base ingredient to alcohol is 1:1, meaning even just one litre of honey will turn into 1 litre of mead. The sealing duration however is exactly 14 days regardless of the sealed amount. Since honey doesn't spoil, there is therefore no reason to ferment in small increments, instead the player could wait until gathering a full barrel.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

=== Cider and Wine ===

[[File:Lychee-cider.PNG|200px|thumb|right|A full barrel of lychee juice ready for fermentation]]

Making cider and wine requires a bit more preparation before the fermentation process can start. Specifically, fruit can not be fermented in its raw state, it needs to be turned into juice first. This however requires a {{ll|Fruit Press|Fruit Press}}. Once fruit juice was procured from the raw fruit, the following process is much like the one for mead.<br>

To ferment fruit juice into cider or wine, it simply needs to be transferred into an empty barrel and sealed. The tooltip inside of the barrels UI will inform about the resulting amount as well as the duration the barrel will need to stay sealed. For cider or wine, the conversion from base ingredient to alcohol is 1:1, meaning even just one litre of juice will turn into 1 litre of cider or wine. The sealing duration however is exactly 14 days regardless of the sealed amount.

|To seal the barrel, the juice inside cannot have more then one decimal. For instance, a barrel with 1.13L cannot be sealed for fermentation, however a barrel with 1.1L can be sealed.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

=== Ale ===

[[File:Spelt-ale.PNG|200px|thumb|right|A full barrel of water with spelt flour, ready for fermentation]]

To brew ale, a barrel, a liquid container as well as an amount of flour is required. Only specific types of flour can be used for fermentation, specifically:

* spelt

* cassava

* rye

* rice

* amaranth

Flax and sunflower flour cannot be used to ferment ale.<br><br>

</div>

To craft flour, a {{ll|quern|quern}} is needed, which in turn requires full stone blocks and therefore a metal pickaxe. Since the quern can be powered by hand, automation is not required.<br>

To ferment flour into ale, a barrel needs to be filled with water and flour in a 1:1 ration, meaning 1 litre of water requires 1 flour. However, the ingredients will not be turned into alcohol with the same ratio, meaning unlike for mead and cider, it requires more base ingredients to acquire the same amount of alcohol. The actual ratio is 5:1, which means it requires 5 litres of water and 5 flour to make 1 litre of ale - therefore 1 litre of water and 1 flour results in 0.2 litres of alcohol. This process can be done in 1 litre steps, however due to the long shelf life of flour there is no urgent need to turn flour into alcohol immediately.<br>

The fermentation process takes 14 days regardless of the amount of ingredients.

|While breadfruit turns into an alcohol titled 'Ale', it does not actually follow the same mechanics of flour based ales and instead behaves like a fruit wine instead.

== Distillation ==

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

=== Requirements ===

The process of distillation first requires a boiler and condenser. Both of these are made from processed copper, tin and lead or silver - and therefore require the player to have at least reached the copper age, including a finished copper {{ll|anvil|anvil}}.<br>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

==== Shopping List ====

For one set of boiler and condenser, the player would need:

* 7 copper plates = 14 copper ingots

* 1 soldering iron = 1 stick and 1 copper chisel (= 1 copper ingot)

* 7 Solder Bars = 2 ingots of either lead or silver solder alloy, as well as a saw with enough remaining durability

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

==== Soldering Iron ====

A soldering iron is a tool used, for the moment, exclusively to craft the boiler and condenser. It requires a stick and a copper chisel - keep in mind that the durability left on the chisel will be carried over to the soldering iron. Given that one crafting process including the soldering iron only takes 3 durability - and only 2 processes are needed for a fully working distillery - it is almost advisable to use an already used chisel with only around 6 durability left over for this.

|Ingredients= 1x {{ll|Chisel|<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Copper chisel</span>}}<br>1x {{ll|Stick|<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Stick</span>}}

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

==== Solderbars ====

Solderbars are, for the moment, exclusively used to craft the boiler and condenser. They require a saw of any metal type, as well as ingots made from one of the two available solder alloys - Lead Solder or Silver Solder Ingots. These ingots can be created through {{ll|casting|casting}}, combining tin with either lead or silver in the correct amounts:

* Lead Solder: Lead (45% to 55%) and Tin (45% to 55%)

* Silver Solder: Silver (40% to 50%) and Tin (50% to 60%)

|Ingredients= 1x {{ll|Saw|<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Saw</span>}}<br>1x {{ll|Solder ingot|<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Solder ingot</span>}}

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

==== Boiler & Condenser ====

|Ingredients= 1x {{ll|Soldering iron|<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Soldering iron</span>}}<br>2x {{ll|Metal plate|<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Copper plate</span>}}<br>1x {{ll|Solder bar|<span lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">Solder bar</span>}}

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

=== Process ===

# The first object that should be placed is the boiler. Arrange it so there is at least one block space to one side of the boiler - this is where the condenser can be placed in the next step. Additionally, there needs to be room to access the boiler itself, since the third step of the setup needs a campfire to be placed below the boiler.

# The condenser can be {{SneakClick|placed}} while targetting one side of the boiler, and will then be put down on the block next to that side. It is technically possible to have more than one condenser attached to the same boiler, however only one condenser will be used at the same time.

# The next step requires a campfire to be set up under the condenser. {{Sprint|Press the sprint button}} while left clicking first the grass and then the firewood in place under the boiler. The campfire should only be ignited once the condensation process can start!

File:Face-boiler.PNG|When placing the condenser, make sure the side of the boiler is targeted correctly.

File:Condenser-placed.PNG|The condenser placed down directly in front of the boiler side that was targeted before.

File:Placed-grass.PNG|One grass needs to be placed directly under the boiler to start a campfire.

File:Boiler-campfire.PNG|Just like a regular campfire, it takes 4 firewood on top of the grass pile.

File:Boiler-in-usage.PNG|Once filled with alcohol and fired, the boiler will constantly display the progress and fuel needs.

File:Condenser-in-usage.PNG|Once a bucket is placed and the condenser is filled with water, it will constantly update the progress and water needs.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">

The boiler can be filled with up to 30 litres of the same alcohol, whereas the condenser can hold 10 litres of water at a time. The campfire below the boiler can take up to 4 pieces of firewood each time, which amounts to a burn time of 8 hours. At the moment, it is not possible to directly open the firepit GUI and input more than 4 pieces - however it is possible to restock fuel and alcohol during the process.<br>

A distillation can be started and then left to work on its own. The player only needs to return after 8 hours to restart the fire with new fuel - however, this will waste fuel, as explained below.<br>

Before the condensation process starts, the boiler temperature needs to reach about 78°C, this will take 0.2h of the initial fuel time. The temperature of the boiler will not rise above 100°C. After the fuel is consumed or the alcohol has been processed, the boiler will show as "cold" and the campfire will be extinguished automatically. However, if firewood or alcohol is restocked fast enough, the campfire will ignite again automatically. The temperature will sink during the time the campfire is out, and will rise up again to reach 100°C.<br>

Once the campfire has been fired through once, it does not require the full 4 pieces of firewood placed down to be started again, and therefore smaller amounts of alcohol can be processed without wasting too much fuel. Similarly, the remaining fuel time of a distillation process once all source alcohol is gone remains and can be used towards the next process.

Below is a table of required source alcohol, water and fuel to receive a certain amount of distilled alcohol. The time needed includes initial heating time and the firewood needed takes into consideration, that 4 pieces are needed to start the first fire - the second number in brackets displays the actual need.<br>
