Chef Archive
Thread: Read this! Yes, you with the question, click this first (Chef guides and tools)
Well, since I can't edit SirVimes's old post, here's our new listing of chef resources.
This is the best **self edit** profession FAQ out there. Yeah, so what if I wrote it, I can't have an opinion? 
Before asking any question, it's a really good idea to check this out. Posting a question covered in the FAQ can get responses ranging from polite nudges to grab the scruff of your neck and throwing you at it. Topics covered include grind paths, additives, experimentation, macros, and some general crafting tips. If anything is missing or incorrect, feel free to send me a PM and I'll update it.
Food chart (for chefs)
A spreadsheet listing everything contained in the schematics (resources required, experimental percentages) and a few things that aren't (food effects with ranges, xp gain). Again, if you see anything that needs correction, send me a PM (especially on the ranges).
Food chart (for customers)
A well laid-out chart of the chef and artisan foods put together by Vandessa. This is an excellent "menu" for customers, since the stuff that they don't care about has been stripped out, and it is organized by effect, rather than by skill box. There may be some discrepencies with my chef chart, I'm not sure how much updating she does to keep it current.

This is a listing of chef prices based on estimated resource and addtive costs. This is for Bria server. You may find downloading the source Excel spreadsheet more useful (please download rather than opening in browser), since you can use that to tweak numbers to match your server's economy.
Tyfo's price calculator (zip file)
A spreadsheet allowing you to tweak to your hearts content. Information can also be found on the swgcraft forum here.
Experimentation spreadsheet (please download rather than opening in your browser)
My attempt to simplify determining expected outcomes based on resource stats. The numbers given are for great successes, it's rumored that amazings will bump the numbers up (waiting on some confirmation).
Buff calculator (spreadsheet, please download rather than opening in browser)
An interesting tool put together by Eaca. Allows you to enter stats for foods/drinks, see how long it lasts, check the filling decay, and allows for you to gauge when buffs can be stacked. Reading her post may help with using it.
Mainly for customers looking to use food as decoration. Gee, there sure are a lot of yellow calzones, aren't there.
General resources:
www.swgcraft.com: an invaluable tool for any crafter. Learn what's spawning on your server, which planets it can be found on, and their stats. This is updated by players, so enter stuff often. Especially flora, the other players don't seem interested in hopping over to Yavin to check the Fungi stats.
