This page lists the productivity of processing [[Wine]], [[Cheese]], [[Goat Cheese]], [[Pale Ale]], [[Mead]], and [[Beer]] in a [[Cask]].
This page lists the productivity of processing [[Wine]], [[Cheese]], [[Goat Cheese]], [[Pale Ale]], [[Mead]], and [[Beer]] in a [[Cask]].
With the exception of the two highest-value wines, cheeses give the best value compared to the processing time required to age them to iridium quality. The best value wines are included in the table below along with all unique cask products. The table below shows profit for regular quality processed items only.

This table does not take into account the effects of Tiller or Artisan [[professions]], which reduce and increase the profit from a [[Cask]], respectively. To view the profitability for those professions, use the links at the top of the page.
Note that although the large milks make gold quality cheeses directly, the final aging step is both 50% of the total value increase and 50% of the required time, so the g/day remains the same. The prices above assume no relevant skills. Choosing [[Skills#Farming|Artisan]] raises the base prices of all cask-aged products by the same percentage, so while the overall values will increase, the relative order of g/day stays the same. Choosing [[Skills#Farming|Rancher]], however, will only increase the price of the cheeses, raising [[Cheese]] to ~19.7 g/day and [[Goat Cheese]] to ~34.3 g/day, making it better than Ancient Fruit Wine in this case.
