I'm now entertaining the idea of testing this sometime. I think it'd be best to do a small batch each of a basic brine as a control, dill brine, regular monster brine, and a citrusy zero sugar flavor monster brine. Then sear them until 165F. My tastebuds will possibly suffer for this science.

Overall, it's just more profitable to craft lvl 1 gems and buy the mats. Lvl 3 gems are -technically- more profitable per focus, but are not in demand due to the release of lvl 5 gems.

I do however, have to break myself of the anime habit of wanting the actor not to pause at commas every time I co-direct.

I once made the mistake of icing a cake before letting it cool. It became soup.
