The Wine Press takes fruit and squeezes it. The rate is the whole station: **two fruit make one juice.**

## Two for one, a minute a pair

Every juice on the table is the same deal — 2 fruit in, 1 juice out, one minute — and it does not batch. Press twenty apples and you are standing there for ten minutes.

Ten juices, all level 0:

**apple · orange · lemon · lime · cherry · blueberry · blackberry**

and three separate grapes: **grapes** , **red grapes** and **white grapes**. Which vine you picked decides which wine you can make later, so keep them apart.

## And one thing that is not a juice

**Olive oil** — **20 olives** , two minutes.

Ten times the fruit of anything else on this table, and the only reason a cook ever walks over here. Worth knowing before you plant an olive grove expecting it to behave like the apple trees.

## The fork: what ferments and what does not

This is the part that decides whether you are running a juice bar or a winery.

> **Fruit juice is a drink and stays a drink.** Apple, orange, lemon, lime, cherry, berry — drink it, or cook with it. It will not ferment.
> 
> **Only grape juice ferments.**

Take grape juice to the **Fermentor** with yeast:

| In | Out |
| --- | --- |
| Red grape juice | a **red wine** barrel |
| White grape juice | a **white wine** barrel |
| Plain grape juice | **vinegar** |

The barrels go into a tavern, where people fill cups from them and you set the price.

And do not treat the vinegar as the booby prize. **Vinegar is what every dye in the game needs** , and the leather tanner wants it too — a herbalist with no vinegar cannot make a single colour.

## It protects your work

Not every station does this. Once you have pressed something, **nobody else can take it off the press behind your back** — unlike the smelter or the pottery table, where an unattended output is anybody’s.

You still have a window to collect it, so do not wander far.

> The Wine Press is used by the brewer to press juices and oils out of fruit. The ratio is the whole station: two fruit make one juice, a minute a pair. Three grapes are pressed separately — plain, red and white — because which vine you picked decides what you can ferment later. Olive oil is the exception to everything: 20 olives for one, and the only thing here that is not a juice. Fruit juice is a drink and stays a drink. Only grape juice ferments — red and white become wine bar…
