Once you've mastered the dairy and sugar mill, its very easy to fill not only your own crates but also your neighbors. Brown sugar is 17 minutes, white sugar 34 minutes.Quote:

And the boat wants 4 crates of 3 each. That's the 4 hour wait time for the boat plus another 12 hours to finish the syrup. That means no brown, no white and no extra syrup for 16 hours. You can make other pies and cakes that don't need the sugar but your ice cream, candy and coffee are shut down. I run that mill 24/7 and never have enough to even think about a syrup boat. I didn't spend all those diamonds for those slots to let them sit empty.Quote:

stop filling the crates for a bit and take the time to stock up on product, expand your barn. You can't do everything at once. I no longer make pies but buy them from friends and ads. I rarely make cakes because I find them in stalls too.Quote:

Personally on my level, I just simply ignore my friends boats that is asking help on sugar/dairy crates (with the exception of syrup <--I have plenty of syrup that I produce during the night and they barely get used so I definitely will fill neighbors boat that asks for syrup. I will keep at least 12 for myself). I only unfriends that are 1 month inactive.Quote:

Plus it only takes 17 minutes per 1 brown sugar and I have a helper farm that makes them. I usually store at least 20 on my helper farm and when my main farm is asking for brown sugar after I send the last boat, i immediately go to my helper farm and produce more brown suguar. The most that the boat asked me for sugar was 10 or 11 per crate.
thanks for the tips, you're always so generous with them! so, how do you tell when they've been inactive for months? do you look at their farms or their GC?Quote:

There you will see the activities of your friends when they were last played (sometimes you may need to tap achievement and wait a few second and then tap on player again to refresh). Usually friends at the bottom of the list is inactive depending on when they last played. I typically give +/- one month and then after that I delete them and add more new friends.
