plus, if a chef had 14 points they would probably try to make brandy with 33 filling or less so it can be triple stacked!

You spelt grammar wrong

He's fighting a two front war with grammar and spelling. I often find myself on the front lines against these two myself. :-(

1) Extra experimentation points won't help get past the maximum percentages set by the resource quality, so a chef is maxing Nutrition to hit that +420,he/she won't get any higher with more points (although they can be used to improve other categories).

2) They recently changed the description of the skill on TC2 so that "Force Experimentation" now says "improves your chances of an amazing success". I'm thinking the devs took out the experimentation point gain (not that it ever worked anyway).

3) Vowels, punctuation, and capitalization are your friends.

No. Well, not the "Max max". With a given set of resources, there's a max you can experiment up to based on the resource stats, that's the "max" I was referring to. More experimentation points won't help the chef get higher buffs, since there's no place to spend the pointsafter you hit the cap from the resource stats. That sentence should've read:

so if a chef is maxing Nutrition to hit that +420,

I was using the +420 number from the original post as an example.

A Brandy made with +90 additives (experimented to 100% effectiveness) and experimented up to 100% nutrition would have a buff of +456.

And that will require meat/flora with 1000 OQ/PE/Flavor for the additive, and Berries and Fruits with 1000 PE and 1000 OQ. If you ever see one, send me a screen shot.

I really have my doubts that there is any way to currently raise the cap beyond what the resources dictate. This was true for the one day we had the crafting revamp in place, but not since in my experience. I experiment until I get a 7 point amazing or so on almost every food I make. Sure it gives me a better stat, but it never lets me make anything stronger in that line of experimentation than I could have using 10 points there. The main benefit to me is getting more value out of each point I spend and at times getting another point to work with compared to getting all great results.
