User:My hat stinks/Drafts/Dehydrator Productivity - Tiller

Warning: Spoilers   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.

This page lists the productivity of processing Fruits and Mushrooms into Artisan Goods in a Dehydrator.

The products produced usually sell for more than the raw input items, so using a Dehydrator is almost always profitable. Items that lose gold are highlighted in red, and items whose net increase in value is zero are highlighted in orange. The profit made from processing items is lowest when using iridium quality and highest when using regular quality items.

This table shows the profitability of processing items when the player has chosen the Tiller Profession (but not the Artisan Profession). To view the profitability for no profession or the Artisan Profession, use the links at the top of the page.

Note that you may click on a column header to sort the table by that column, then Shift+Click on a second column to perform a secondary sort.

Input Item	Quality	Input Sell Price (5p)	Processed Sell Price (1p)	Increase in Value ()	Resulting Item
Ancient Fruit	Regular	3025	4150	1125	Dried Fruit
Ancient Fruit	Silver	3778	4150	372	Dried Fruit
Ancient Fruit	Gold	4537	4150	-387	Dried Fruit
Ancient Fruit	Iridium	6050	4150	-1900	Dried Fruit
Apple	Regular	550	775	225	Dried Fruit
Apple	Silver	687	775	88	Dried Fruit
Apple	Gold	825	775	-50	Dried Fruit
Apple	Iridium	1100	775	-325	Dried Fruit

Notes

1. Each day has 1600 minutes of processing time. From 2am to 6am, machines process at 100 minutes per hour. For the rest of the day, machines process at 60 minutes per hour.
   So, (4 × 100) + (20 × 60) = 1600 minutes of processing time per day.
2. Foraged item that does not benefit from the Tiller Profession.
