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 Fruit Press. Once fruit juice was procured from the raw fruit, the following process is much like the one for mead.
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. Raw fruit itself will spoil rather quickly, the juice made from the fruits however does not. Therefore cider and wine are not specifically a method for preserving fruit nutrition and instead more of a prestige process.
