The '''Preserves Jar''' is a piece of [[equipment]] used to make [[Artisan Goods]]. It takes a single [[fruit]] or [[vegetable]] and converts them into [[Jellies and Pickles]], respectively. <br>

Preserves Jars consume less time than [[Keg]]s, but will usually yield less profit. However, low-value, high-yield crops like [[blackberry|blackberries]], [[Green Bean|green beans]] and [[corn]] are actually more profitable in the preserves jar than in the keg, as well as being much faster to process. As an example, corn [[juice]], which is made in the keg, is worth {{price|113}}, but corn pickles, which are made in the preserves jar, are worth {{price|150}}. Salmonberry wine, which is made in the keg, is only worth {{price|15}}, but Salmonberry jelly, which is made in the preserves jar, is worth {{price|60}}.

[[Fruits|Fruit]] makes [[Jellies and Pickles|Jelly]], [[Vegetables]] make [[Jellies and Pickles|Pickles]], [[Sturgeon]] [[Roe]] makes [[Caviar]], and other fish [[Roe]] make their respective [[Aged Roe]].
Jellies and Pickles are common villager favorites. See [[Social]] for more information.

Quality of ingredients makes no difference to the finished product. The value of the finished product is determined using the base value (''i.e.,'' with no silver or gold star) of the item.

Note that processing times are approximate, since time passes differently from 2am to 6am. One hour = 60 minutes from 6am to 2am, but 1 hour = 100 minutes from 2am to 6am. One full day is 1600 minutes, where day is 1200 minutes and night is 400 minutes.

It should be noted that these calculations only involve the value gained in terms of max profit; if looking at profit per day based on the time required, the preserves jar outpaces the keg regardless of the base value of the item (in ''every'' case except for Hops and Wheat) since the preserves jar has a much faster processing time.

For a detailed analysis of profit using the Preserves Jar, see Preserves Jar Productivity.

The Preserves Jar is a type of Artisan Equipment used to make Artisan Goods. Fruit makes Jelly, Vegetables make Pickles, Sturgeon Roe makes Caviar, and other fish Roe make their respective Aged Roe.

A Preserves Jar is the reward for completing the Bundle Teal.png Quality Crops Bundle in the Pantry or the Bundle Teal.png Rare Crops Bundle in the Pantry (Remixed).

Products

Quality of ingredients makes no difference to the finished product. The value of the finished product is determined using the base value (i.e., with no silver or gold star) of the item. However, the preserved version is always at least as profitable as even gold star produce, although the profit margin is lower compared to normal produce.

Note that processing times are approximate, since time passes differently from 2am to 6am. One hour = 60 minutes from 6am to 2am, but 1 hour = 100 minutes from 2am to 6am. One full day is 1600 minutes, where day is 1200 minutes and night is 400 minutes.

Notes

  • Items that have a 4000m processing time starting at 6:00am are done at 7:20pm two days later. Items starting between 12:40pm and 7:20pm are done at 6:00am three days later.

Preserves Jar vs. Keg

Rotten Plant.png  Warning: Spoilers  Rotten Plant 2.png

This page or section contains unmarked spoilers from update 1.6 of Stardew Valley. Players may want to avoid or be cautious toward reading this article/section.

See also: Preserves Jar Productivity, Keg Productivity

The Preserves Jar increases the profit of a crop using the following equation: (2 × Base Crop Value + 50); while the Keg multiplies the base value of Fruits by 3, and Vegetables by 2.25. Because of this, low-value, high-yield crops like Corn or Tomatoes are more valuable in the preserves jar. The keg, on the other hand, favors crops with a much higher base value, such as Ancient Fruit or Melons. The breakpoint is data-sort-value="50">Gold.png50g for fruits and data-sort-value="200">Gold.png200g for vegetables.

Below is a list of crops that are more beneficial to be put in the preserves jar, along with their raw base sell price.

Vegetables Fruits

*Wine and jelly each sell for data-sort-value="150">Gold.png150g, but jelly processes faster than wine.

It should be noted that these calculations only involve the value gained in terms of max profit; if looking at profit per day based on the time required, the preserves jar outpaces the keg regardless of the base value of the item (in every case except for Hops and Wheat) since the preserves jar has a much faster processing time.

Storage Options

See also: Keg storage options, Crafted goods outside the farm

While Preserves Jars can be stored anywhere on the farm, it is more space efficient to store them inside farm buildings or outside the farm altogether.

Trivia

  • The description of the Preserves Jar states that it makes Jam, but it actually produces Jelly.
  • The description of the Preserves Jar was not updated to include fish roe or caviar in v1.4.
