im making brandy
I have the best resources that are spawned on my server (and they are garbage) and i can hit 190+ 45 minutes 6 uses (i have no idea how to get it higher without ruining the rest) and im using barrels. If i use a +86 nutrition suppliment i get +375 45 minutes 6 uses again, its good but i cant GIVE it away.
So my question is what is average for the nutrition supplemant, and is that whats making my brandy suck.
i can post resources tonight when i get home if you want.

+86 bonus is more then decent thinking of 90 being the max . Possible your berry and/or fruit has low PE and OQ that's why .. i dont think +375 for 45 min is bad. Another thing is don't use barrels as they are broken and provides no bonus to quantity ( as you see 6 ). Try using casks (x3 bonus) , you should have 18 charges nice brandy

Hiya,
A +86 Broad Spec is good I tend to use +85's and I'm getting +410 41m0s 50fill and 21uses. I know this is not anywhere near the best out there but it seems to sell. First of all don't use Barrels they are still bugged use casks they give 18uses or 21uses with a few points in the quantity box. This will give you more for your money as you will be using one broad spec for 21 rather than 6 uses. What are you stats like on your berrys and fruit? To get decent brandy you need at least 3 of the stats over 800.
Hope this is some help.

86s are definitely good BSNs. Most BEs seem to cap out around 84-85 since it's tough getting meat and flora with high numbers in three stats.
Your problem is almost certainly the stack size. Customers have gotten used to 18+ stacks of brandy, anything less is probably going to get ignored, even at lower prices. And since barrels are bugged (they give the same stack size as small glasses), you'll have a real hard time getting any profit off that batch.
You might also try playing around with experimenting fewer points in flavor to allow more in nutrition. +400 seems to be a magic number for some customers, if you can hit that with a 40ish duration, it might sell better.

I concur with the suggestions stated by others here. Move to casks, and try to increase your duration once you get over +400.
Every server is different when it comes to resources and additives available, but right now there are a several BEs making +88 BSNs and +118 INs on Starsider. But a +86 or even a +85 with above average resources will get you a nice +400/44minute brandy if you keep at it.
And camp SWGcraft like its a fulltime job until you see good meat, berries, or fruit come into shift. Use the berries and fruits, and work out a deal with your local BE for the meat. Getting in on the good shifts early with as many harvies as you can muster can make your life extremely easy in the long run.
Hope this helps.
