Casks can be placed anywhere, however they will only accept goods to refine if they are actually in the [[Farmhouse#Upgrades|cellar]].

It's worth noting that even with high-value goods such as Starfruit wine, the value gained from casks is comparatively low as an iridium-quality product is only double the original value, so maturing a bottle of starfruit wine will yield 2250g in 56 days, yielding only 40g per day per cask. The lack of maintenance however, means you can fill the cellar and forget about it for two seasons to get that little extra value.

The cellar comes with 33 Casks.  It's possible to fill the cellar with 125 casks and still leave paths to reach all of them without displacing any of them.

It's also possible to completely fill the cellar with Casks.  This requires 189 casks, made of 156 [[Hardwood]] and 3120 [[Wood]]. In order to use all 189 casks, the player must fill the casks all at once, placing additional casks as they move towards the exit. In order to harvest the finished product the player will need to remove the empty casks as they go, carving a path to the furthest casks. This can be time-consuming so it may be a desirable option for only the most valuable products (''e.g.'', [[Starfruit]] or [[Ancient Fruit]] wine).

In order to use all 189 casks, the player must fill the casks all at once, placing additional casks while moving towards the exit. In order to harvest the finished product the player must reverse the process, removing empty casks while carving a path to the furthest ones. This can be time-consuming, so it may be a desirable option for only the most valuable products (''e.g.'', [[Starfruit]] or [[Ancient Fruit]] wine).
