Not in vanilla though. Eh... Why Toady oh Why? 

[em312s0n]

yeah sorry dude but if youre insistent in sticking to vanilla, mikekchar's post from page 1 may help you out

Awesome as always thanks. On another note ive just found that the workflow plugin can automate brewing of specific alcohol.

I am wondering what is the difference between the built in jobmanager [j]-[m] and the  DF hack workflow manager?
 

[em312s0n]

You can set a range of goods to be maintained for both but you can assign specific materials if you use workflow(alt A after creating the task) and then forget it because the task never goes away when the range is met. In the manager you can set specific materials(DFhack alt A after the job manager creates the task on the workshop) but the task will be gone when its done

after the job manager creates the task on the workshop) but the task will be gone when its done

Thanks
This is also the case when you use conditionals in the task ?

[Fleeting Frames]

Yes; it generates new jobs each time rather than resuming old one repeating one like workflow.

Thankfully for most stuf you can set details for material, but in this particular example this is not possible. Here's a point-by-point comparison.

Thanks
Seems to be rather complicated.with all those conditionals to use.
At the moment i am using the inbuilt job manager in DF.

Yeah, learn the base game first before confusing yourself with mods and other utils (except one or two bits and pieces you find you really can't play without like Therapist or a tileset, etc).

Cooking alcohol is actually a really good idea, thinking about it.
Kind of unfortunate how much of a derp in style it is to have to skip wheat flour in favor of making drink, but at least it makes it possible to satisfy those needs now. Millers to be reassigned to cooking and brewing!
