But it does take some time, fermenting and all..no seriously, I hear mayo is only 15 mins so soy sauce should be anywhere from 30 to 60 mins. Not at a level to get the machines yet, but can't wait and see how it all works out once there :)
Mayo only takes 15 mins, but you need olive oil to make it and that takes 45 mins.Quote:

It should be flip flopped. At this pace it will take forever to make sushi. Not to mention one of my friends had a boat with 3 crates of 4 soy sauces each. At 3 hours a piece it will take 36 hours to make that many. You have 4 hours between boats and 16 hours to fill it, that's 20 hours. Do the math 20 - 36 = - 16!!
Agree with you, sojasauce should not take longer than an hour. Also olive oil and mayo should be the other way around in terms of producing.
It will be treated much the same way as the jams which also take a ridiculous amount of time - it will be hoarded and parceled out sparingly, either to help with others' boats or one's own boats. I NEVER sell jam in the RSS because it takes too long to make - it's used strictly for my and others' boats and I rarely have much on hand at all. It almost makes the 4-hour cheesecake look like a "quickie."
On the other hand you'll get the mastery star relatively quickly because the machine will never stop running. :)
And if you think about it, making bars of silver and gold take sooo much longer than the jewelry that we have the option to buy five smelters. At the rate it takes to make soy sauce compared to sushi I predict we will never see soy sauce for sale unless the seller doesn't have the sushi machine.Quote:

Most coffees cook way faster then the white sugar you need in some of them with espresso having the biggest difference which only takes 5 minutes yet the white sugar needs at least 34 minutes. Pizza cooks in at least 12 minutes and the cheese takes 51 min to make. Baked potato is ready in 29 minutes yet it needs 1 cheese and 1 cream or 68 minutes of dairy products. And there are more like these.Quote:

Yes it will take some time to build up a certain minimum stock level for all who are at the level the could buy all the machines at once already. These machines do all unlock at different levels so for those players not there yet it will be easier as the new products and machines are introduced slowly to them meaning they have time to build up stock before needing them for sushi and so on.
Good point. Now I wish I had spent those 6 diamonds adding a slot to the sauce machine instead of the sushi bar. What the heck was I thinking. LolQuote:

We opened 6 slots on each machine -- will see later if we need more.Quote:
