Sorry for the wrong Subject, potential lost if only you build 30 Juice Machines or more. Overall it is safe to build and master all three drinks

Awesome assessment. It would appear less is more!!

My prime directive at level 58 is to raise funds for an expansion. The prices of the last 2 appliances made me think twice, but your research is superb!!

Thanks for the insight!

My restaurant is the snackery if anyone on the forums stops by I'd love to hear from you, but posting is never a requirement;-)

If you stop at 83 times of any recipe and buy enough appliances, aren't they all losses... :p. Not to mention decorations and expansions are 100% losses. Guess I'm a fool there cause I love buying those... ;3.

On the same vein, you don't have to stop once you make a recipe 83 times if you feel you want "your money's worth." I could tell you to buy 1 appliance and make French Toast (or Chicken Salad) for the rest of your game play time... As soon as they all sell, you'd be really maximizing your profits... ;D. (Though it's not as exaggerated as BS where Brownies could make you 80 coins per min (if they would ever sell...) and the next best is Jasmine Tea at 37.33...)

Also, very few people buy 30 appliances. The maximum number of appliance slots you get for free (i.e. without having to spend gems) is 18. To be able to buy 30 Juice Machines, you'd need to 588 gems (previously 288 gems). If they can help it, most people won't even buy 1 extra slot. So rest easy tonight; very few people will be in danger of experiencing the loss you're worried about from the latest overpriced appliances! :D.

On a slightly different note, you should explain yourself a bit if you're going to throw a bunch of numbers at us. :>. It's going to make sense to you but I'd say many will just glance, not comprehend in the first few seconds, and just click away. :/.

It is just a cost analysis, not any suggestion.
If you want maximum profit, get only 1 stove, and cook only with one stove, comprehend with time.
If you want maximum speed, get as many as 83 stoves, and everything will be done in just few rounds.

You just have to find yourself a butterzone between profit and speed that you can comfortable with, not to mention affordable. To me, my butterzone is 21 stoves in general (mastering one recipe takes 4 rounds), but it pretty much depends on the cost of the stoves too. If it is too expensive, I am considering reducing it to 11 stoves (mastering one recipe takes 8 rounds).

After looking at the cost, I started to wonder why my land expansion takes so long yet to fully expand. I think I spent too much money on stoves.
