Ok, I'm new to chef. How the heck did you make such great bivoli? Do you have skill tapes? Or just great resources and additives? My best so far is 2 uses, +24.6, for 13mins.

Higher duration would depend on what you have to give up. I would stick with at least 3 uses. Its debateable whether you want more duration for the loss of a little buff. I have considered making a run of about +21 or so with a very high duration. Your going for 2 types of docs normally. One that buffs themselves and friends only, and those that buff for credits outside starports. The first type doesn't care a bit amount duration. The 2nd might, but with fixed buff numbers, +2525 looks better in advertising than the person sitting next to you advertising +2515. The difference is so minor, but again it is the perception of the customer that matters.

I made my first +25 Bivoli last night, "only" a 10-point chef. Got +25, qty 2, for 15+ minutes. The resources were using the Yavin Carnivore Meat that spawned for the last couple of weeks and the Wrathou Endorian Tubers. Both were about as high stat as you can get and I had to use all 10 experimentation points on nutrition to get it over 25. So it can be done with near-perfect resources.

What I wouldn't give to get my other 2 points! But I can't imagine I'll be able to do that as I have no combat skills to go find the tapes and even when I have 10 million plus credits, it all goes back into tissues and resources to keep the vendor stocked. This is NOT A COMPLAINT tho I L O V E being a chef and will continue as a +10 as long as my customers keep appreciating my menu. (Or maybe the force can will a couple of +10 food exp tapes to land in my soup....)

Your PE is too low in the meat, which is the most important stat for power when making bivoli.

Yes, but I can get to +25 and 3 uses with just 10 points. I usually have 2 extra points to put into duration.
