You gotta keep using the bellows until it actually boils,,(reply>), @Semper Fi it's not.,(reply>), I didn't get the trial and error perk, it seemed like a waste of a perk point to me.,(reply>), Wrong it only boils when you pull 3 times in a row while each turn means 1 pull, if a recipe says boil for 2 turns and you pull 3 or 6 times you over did it by 1 or 4 pulls.<br><br>The sandglass isn't required but you earn xp for every device you use in the process, you can add the next recipe while its still glowing but if it says cool down the glow must be gone.<br><br>You can quickly double pull the bellows for distill.<br><br>If a recipe calls for grinding 2 different ingredients to boil in the same turn, you can grind them at the same time.<br><br>If it calls for 3 in the same turn with 2 grinded you can use the plate to add it all at once, there is 1 like that that I've made.,(reply>), I think it's because he has reached a certain level and is allowed to make a mistake and that 1 mistake is not properly boiling the first ingredient.  kinda genius actually.,(reply>), Think it has more to do with your immersion , you do not need to, yet for those that want to cut corners, they can.
