The fermenting barrel is used to turn wort into beer. The ratio is 1 wort to 1 beer. Each barrel can hold 25 wort at a time. The fermenting process takes approximately 10 days, during which the temperature must be maintained between 7°C and 30°C. Haulers fill barrels with wort, but only when the temperature is correct. If the temperature rises above 30°C, the wort will become spoiled and no beer is made. If the temperature falls below 7°C the fermenting process is paused and will resume when the temperature is corrected. Brewing must be researched before this is available. Fermenting begins as soon as the first wort is added. Adding more wort later does not reset the 10 day timer.
