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]]s 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}}.

Processing time calculates differently while you sleep than while you are awake. 1 hour = 60 minutes when awake but = 100 minutes when sleeping. So if you sleep a whole day, a preserves jar would record 2400 minutes (100 × 24) of processing. If you work from 6:00AM till 12:00AM and sleep 6 hours, it will process 1680 minutes a day (60 × 18 + 100 × 6). If you work from 6:00AM till 2:00AM and faint 4 hours, it will process 1600 mins a day (60 × 20 + 100 × 4).

This article is marked as a stub for the following reason:

  • Need more details about Caviar and Aged Roe
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.

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 more profitable than 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.

Preserves Jar vs. Keg

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.

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

*Both 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 will outpace the keg regardless of the base value of the item (in every case) since the preserve 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 version 1.4.

History

  • 1.4: Added ability to make Caviar and Aged Roe. Adjusted processing time so that machines process 100 minutes from 2am to 6am, not every hour the player is asleep.
