Some exemple of the early menu
Select a recipe
Here you will find all the recipes you have made during your monastic journey. Let's take the one we made in the last guide.
This menu gives you all the information about the recipe, including the ingredients, type of beer you'll be using and the minimum and maximum quality it can reach. It serves as a reminder for everything you prepared during the elaboration of the recipe.
Select a brewer
A beer is only as good as the brewer.
By choosing the right monk, you can guarantee a certain quality for your brew. Some are better at using the equipment than others. Be careful, just because someone is good doesn't mean your beer won’t get infected in the process.
Choose the quantity
At the beginning you’ll only be able to make up to 100 litres per batch. The more you make, the more ingredients you'll need, and the more expensive it will be. Only invest if you're sure you can make a profit!
Handling the ingredients
Treating your ingredients with a certain process, such as storing them for some time or other, will have different effects on your brew, but this is a subject for the veteran brewmasters, we may discuss this point again at a later date…
