blah, mine is +22. can't remember the filling, but I do remember putting points in filling.
I find using my +22 with the entertainer buff and the Research Center gives me a high enough chance of getting an amazing success
At first I was putting all my points in nutrition (got +24 I think) but I got frustrated by the filling. When I craft I usually craft a couple of shem then run the factories, so the filling is important to me.
I <3 Aye!

Unlike the Assembly stage which no longer has Critical Failures, the Experimentation stage of crafting still has a Critical Failure cycle which will pop up sooner or later, regardless if you are a 13 point Artisan or a Novice. It's hard to track that cycle. For the most part, I use my schematics and factories to mass produce my tools, vehicles etc. But I still do quite a bit of piece work. The only time that I use Bespin Port is when I make an AV21, especially if I make it for someone else. I drink it before I fill in any experimentation slots and then in-between as well. My greatest success has been to fill in 3 slots at a time until I run out of bars. Makes for a tipsy Artisan but a happy one when it's possible to jack the durability up to 99% without failures. So far so good, don't know if the wine did it or it wasn't time for my Critical Failure cycle.

Made a +25 / 21 fill last night. Didn't go all out for amazings, think ill look at a couple of other tat resources and see if I can get +25 / 20 fill. Then i'll be very happy.

Thanks to a recent spawn of amazing Tat tubers and berries and some fruit from way back I can now hit +25 Bespin with 20 Fill. I'm pretty sure that 25 is the maximum because that was experimented to 97-98% if I remember correctly.

I can make +24 with 20 filling, that's made with the best ever resources and +117 Nutrients. Just made a full run actually, 17 crates. It doesn't get any better than that on Sunrunner.

uh...i beg to differ but the critical failure is back. i cannot document it but i got a critical failure when crafting and it set me back on my experimentations. i think i have even gotten a critical failure on assembly...again i do not have any documentation but i am sure i have seen them but gave them no more attention then SOE fixing the game.

Been making +25/ 20fill for a while now, but have finally ran out of good tat berries to continue making it so am now stuck with +24 / 20fill.
Have been keeping a close eye on berries and tuber spawns.
