Berube Feed

Taken all the way down to base materials, a batch of 3 Berube Feed is 3 crafting steps deep and needs 2 intermediates — Hollandaise Sauce ×1 and Fermented Butter ×1 — which resolve to 7 distinct raw materials totalling 12 units, plus 18 crystals.

That bill outweighs 6,221 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 1,194 of the 1,591 Alchemist ones, and 337 recipes nest deeper.

Only 4 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 14 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 14 Fire Shard, 2 Lightning Crystal and 2 Water Crystal.

The chain crosses two disciplines — Alchemist to Lv 78 and Culinarian to Lv 55 — so no single class can finish it unaided.

4 of the 7 raw materials come out of the ground, and 2 of them are time-gated: Chysahl Greens (0:00, 4:00, 8:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00) and Heavens Lemon (6:00, 18:00). The widest gap between consecutive opening times is 4 Eorzean hours, about 12 real-world minutes.

Of the intermediates, Fermented Butter has the widest use: 32 recipes call for it, all of them Culinarian recipes.
