Does milling a stack of 5 cave wheat give you 5 flour, or 25 flour?  Is it the same with sugar?

[anewaname]

It gives 5 flour. From the Wiki (http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Flour) "Milling plants needs one bag for every job, and one plant will be processed to make one bag of flour." The same applies to sugar and dye. Brewing gets the 5 for 1 ratio.

All value marked with a "¹", have a x5 multiplier in quantity.
Dwarven syrup, quarry bush leaves and all drinks.
Quarry bush leaves with x3 Dwarven syrup its the most expensive meal without using FB or giant animals fat .

Masterwork Quarry Bush Leaf Roast x100
(10+20+20+20)*100*12
*84000

There are artifacts worth less

Actually, assuming stacks of 5,
Cheese + Dwarven Syrup(3) is base value of 110 x 80, 8800
while Quarry Bush Leaves + Dwarven Syrup(3) is base value 70 x 100, 7000

With stacks of 8 its
110 base x120 units 13200
70 base x160 units 11200

The exact formula for Quarry bush with 3xSyrup roast is: (minimum price)
(10+10+20+20+20)*(5+5+5+5) = 80*20 = 1600
10 for the meal value, plus 10, 20, 20, 20 for basic value of Leaves + value of 3xSyrup.

But with a great planter and fertilizer, you have stacks with 25~30; and with a legendary cooker, a Masterfull roast can have a 12x multiplier.
The maximum is.
(12*10+12*10+12*20+12*20+12*20)*(30+30+30+30) = 720*120 = 115200

Buy all food from the caravan, make lavish meal, sell again and buy the whole caravan (except the meals).

I have to go with others and say that this is clearly broken.  I have an overseer mandate against the export of prepared meals :-)  As my fortress languishes in poverty, I'm hoping that I don't meet with an unfortunate accident.  I tend to avoid pulling levers...

[ringringlingling]

actually, you can cook seeds right?

seeds come in stacks of 100...

[ringringlingling]

I didn't know you got the base 10 for items, thought it was just the value of the ingrediants.

[ringringlingling]

so if you had two types of cheese and 200 seeds, and made a masterwork meal, that would add up to about a quarter mil, wouldn't it?

[Luriant]

100 seed in a bag isn't a stack of 100 seed.
If you make Dwarven wine with a stack of 8 pump helmet, you have a stack of 8 seeds, in a bag with more stacks.

I remember the Planepacked bug, when a cooker pick items, but the kitchen is outside the burrow or civilian alert, the cooker pick more and more until the remove of the burrow or alert.

I have meals with 5 ingredients, but i don't know how repeat the meal :S .

If you want the biggest meal, catch a Giant Sperm Whale in savage oceans, and cook the meat.

If you want ‼FUN‼ with your meal, embark next to a Evil Savage Ocean.... Undead Giant Sperm Whales attack dwarves, and don't breath, so can move out of the water.
