Congratulations, Your Maltiness! You are now on the brink of managing your own abbey, and it will be your responsibility to ensure that this monastery excels in beer brewing, both in quantity and quality. To help you navigate this journey, we've prepared some guides to help you master the craft! Today’s topic - Making your own recipes
A clean recipe in a clean room
To master the art of brewing ale, the first step is to create your own recipes. For this, you'll need to utilize the library—a room dedicated to knowledge and its effective use. In this space, the monks and nuns you assign will be able to develop new beer recipes for you to craft. Simply send a monk to the desk, and embark on the journey to brew the ale of your choice!
Work diligently but wisely, lest you discover the ground makes a poor pillow.
Recipe-crafting
Once a monk/nun is working on a recipe, you can select the style you desire—whether it's light, blonde, or old ale—and choose your ingredients. You'll have access to a wide variety of ingredients. Combining unique elements with essential ones will impact the qualities and virtues of your brew!
Perfect the recipe, for each tweak can lead to a new and exciting taste adventure.
The ingredients influence the beer on 4 different virtues:
- Taste
- Colour
- Strength
- Foam
Each style has a base in each of the virtue to reach, but you are free to experiment in preparation of specific orders. Don't mess the order of a foamous lord!
Taste and stats
The final aspect to consider is the statistics. Although less important than taste, they are still useful to know. The number of ingredients and the specific monk/nun assigned to craft the recipe will affect various factors. These include the creation cost, shelf life, and development time of the beer. Paying attention to these details will help you achieve optimal production.
Once all these steps are completed, the last thing to do is to name your recipes. Make sure to choose a name that is both catchy and memorable!
