For a very long time I liked to keep at least 20 of each dairy product and at least 40 of each sugar in my barn, but now I'm starting to think that's a bit excessive considering how often my barn gets full. So I'm just wondering what a amount of sugar/dairy products do you think is reasonable to keep in your barn?
What is working for me right now at level 48 is keeping 20 of the items that take a long time to make...cheeses and syrup, and 10 of the rest. When my cheeses/syrup drops to 10, I make more.
What works for one person isn't going to work for another as it is very level dependent (barn size a big factor too). I've just turned level 72 and what has worked for me up until now is: 30-40 each of cream, butter and cheese. Around 20 of goat cheese (it's got down to 9 and I'm feeling a touch panicky 😳!). 30-40 of white sugar, 25-30 of brown sugar and around 15 of syrup.
However, with the truck event I am going to need more sugar and dairy to restock cakes etc, plus ive just unlocked the pasta kitchen which apparently goes through cheese like mad so I may well have to have a rethink.
I never keep more than 20. If it exceeds 20 they become coffee. I would rather keep them compact and store them as premium items. I never do dairy or sugar orders either. It works for me. But for some ppl its the opposite.
I make sugar and dairy items 24/7. I use it without worrying about stock, but only to make items i need for town/boat/truck. Candy is the only thing i make 24/ as it takes so long
Before the Pasta Kitchen - 60+ dairy
After the Pasta Kitchen - 30+ dairy
Pretty much as I do... And I wouldn't claim it works for me, lol, more like I have production impulse control issues! I would love to be sitting happily on a nice stockpile, but it never seems to happen, ah well.Quote:

It's not really a big deal for me since I don't actually make many premium items as I hire Tom full time and only need enough to supply my townies as I rarely do boats or trucks and to fill boat crates for my followers and farms I follow. I imagine if my diamonds were to dry up and I had to make my own items, I would have to keep more but am hoping that day never comes.
Why stockpile sugar and dairy products instead of making stuff with them?
Just in case you urgently need them for a truck order (like this event), or if a person don't want to miss any boat if they won't be using diamonds so the boat can always be done fast, and basically for any other need. For me I have to have at least 80 of each for different reasons and more than 20 of the products that use them, but because of the event, the products are almost gone.Quote:
