Reserved Jugs
« on: November 25, 2011, 06:01:36 am »

I've been reflecting on recent job cancellations for pressers. Jug shortages tend to happen unless I'm producing masses of them. Storing royal jelly in stockpiles has claimed a large part of the supply and the cooks aren't too interested in using the stuff for meal prep. Typically when I've had similar issues in the past with barrel supply, I've reduced the work interruption by keeping some number reserved (for brewing jobs).

It would be useful to have the same ability with jugs as one has with barrels and bins.

This is great idea.

In fact, every container should be reservable.
