The Brewing Barrel in Once Human is a fantastic tool that unlocks a myriad of food dishes and drink recipes, providing you a constant way of producing drinks that restore sanity and don’t have an expiration date. While the oak-made fermentation barrel might sound like it’s only for food, it also has a hidden way of making acids with the right ingredients, making it an invaluable addition to every base. 

Here’s everything you need to know about Brewing Barrel recipes in Once Human.

Brewing Barrel recipes in Once Human, listed

To unlock the Brewing Barrel in Once Human, you have to make your way to the Memetics tree and go to the Logistics tab. After that, scroll your way down to Integrated Kitchen and unlock it if you haven’t already. Then, you can open the Brewing Barrel by spending seven Ciphers and 2000 Energy Links. Once you have done that, you will also unlock a variety of recipes that can be prepared using the barrel.

Here are all the Brewing Barrel recipes in Once Human you will unlock:

  • Corn Ale: One Corn, two Purified Water.
  • Malt Ale: One Wheat, two Purified Water.
  • Cheese: Two Milk, one Purified Water.
  • Pickle: Two Cucumber, one Purified Water.

While you can find the food ingredients in the wild, you can prepare the Purified Water in your base by connecting your rainwater harvester to your water storage and purifier using a wire. The Ale, whether Corn or Malt, keeps you hydrated and restores your sanity significantly for a set time. This drink especially comes in clutch during boss battles and visiting highly polluted areas when your sanity drops quickly, giving you a variety of unwanted debuffs. Having no expiry time, it can stay as long as you want in your inventory without spoiling itself.

You can also use the Brewing Barrel to make yourself an Acid farm in Once Human, and mix Impure Acid with Purified Water to make regular acid that can be used to make fuel for your vehicles and even gunpowder to manufacture ammunition for your weapons—making your life far, far easier.
