This page lists the productivity of processing Wine, Cheese, Goat Cheese, Pale Ale, Mead, and Beer in a Cask.

With the exception of the two highest-value wines, cheeses give the best value compared to the processing time required to age them to iridium quality. The best value wines are included in the table below along with all unique cask products.

Name	Processing Time (Iridium)	Value Increase (Reg. to Iridium)	Gold/Day	Value Increase (Reg. to Iridium) (Artisan Prof.)	Gold/Day (Artisan Prof.)
Starfruit Wine	56 Days	2250g	40.2	3150g	56.3
Ancient Fruit Wine	56 Days	1650g	29.5	2310g	41.3
Goat Cheese	14 Days	400g	28.6	560g	40.0

Followed by all other wines in descending order of fruit/wine price.

Note that although the large milks make gold quality cheeses directly, the final aging step is both 50% of the total value increase and 50% of the required time, so the g/day remains the same. The prices above assume no relevant skills. Choosing Artisan raises the base prices of all cask-aged products by the same percentage, so while the overall values will increase, the relative order of g/day stays the same. Choosing Rancher, however, will only increase the price of the cheeses, raising Cheese to ~19.7 g/day and Goat Cheese to ~34.3 g/day, making it better than Ancient Fruit Wine in this case.
