=== Climate === | === Climate === | ||
The climate in which the food is stored affects the rate of food spoilage. Hot climates can increase the decay rate to 2.5x (250%), while very cold climates can reduce the decay rate to 0.1x (10%). Only the climate at sea level is considered, so placing your food high up in the mountains will have no effect if the mountain is in a hot climate. | The climate in which the food is stored affects the rate of food spoilage.

You can however completely negate the impact of climate by building a cellar. | |||

=== Crocks === | === Crocks === | ||
Up to 4 portions of meal or pickled vegetables can be stored in crocks providing a slight reduction in food decay, which is a good option for short term food storage. For long term storage, '''sealing the crocks''' with a lump of [[fat]] or [[beekeeping|beeswax]] above the crock in the crafting grid reduces decay by a factor of 10. Filled crocks may be carried in player inventories.<br> | |||
For convenience you can build shelves that can hold up to 8 crocks at a time. | |||
=== Storage Vessels === | === Storage Vessels === | ||
Any | Any food item can be stored in vessels, which provide storage benefits to preserved foods as well as raw foods. These vessels are good options for short and long term food storage as they reduce decay 75% for veggies and 50% for grains. | ||

Food preservation benefits from methods, containers, and locations stack, so it is best to combine as many preservation solutions as possible. Generally, all food should be stored in a cellar. | Food preservation benefits from methods, containers, and locations stack, so it is best to combine as many preservation solutions as possible.
