## How to Use This Device

Using the Berry Extraction Station is incredibly easy! And we use it to create extracts for things like baking, crafting paints, crafting medicines, and when the option arrives to eventually be able to craft alcohol.

Let’s get started!

### Creating Extracts

To create your extracts, you will need:

* (5) Berries - either purchased via the local market page or you may convert your harvested berries in order to make them useable.
* (3) Vodka (sold as Polano’s Triple-D Vodka) - only sold at main beYou sim

Once you have these items loaded into your assets, sit on the extractor. Choose 'Berry Type\*' and choose from:

* Springberry
* Grumbleberry
* Dragonberry
* Dingleberry
* Blackberry
* Schnozberry
* Strawberry
* Elderberry
* Mulberry
* Blueberry

Once complete, your extractor will add 5 uses of berry extract to your assets and you will see the following message in your nearby chat:

*[20:28] beYou Berry Extraction Station: 5 uses of bY Mulberry Extract have just been added to your assets!!.*
*[20:28] beYou Berry Extraction Station: bY Berry Extraction Station has 9 uses til cleaning!*

Once they've been created, the extracts will go directly to your assets. Extracts do not expire.

### Transferring/Selling Extracts

Once your extracts have been added to your assets, you can either use them for crafting, or you can use a vendor to sell (or gift to someone else) future use in their assets.

To retrieve a vendor for your extracts, you will need to use the beYou Extracts Packager.

## Maintenance & Cleaning

After a certain number of uses, your extraction station may need to either be cleaned or repaired. Below are the specifications for each:

### Cleaning

After ten uses, the extractor requires cleaning using water and vinegar. Your extractor will not let you make extracts again until this step has been taken.

To clean the extractor you will need:

* (2) Distilled Vinegar - found at any beYou grocery store
* (3) beYou Water - harvested from your water source or purchased via the local market page

Once you have these items loaded into your assets, sit on the extractor, and choose cleanup. Once it finishes, you will be able to use the extractor again.

### Maintenance

After roughly 20 uses (give or take), this device will need to be repaired. To repair this piece of equipment, you will need the beYou Berry Crusher Repair Kit, which can be made using the Maintenance Repair Toolbox or bought from local markets.

When it's time to clean/repair the device, you will sit on it and it will automatically check for the toolkit and if you have it, it will start to repair. If not, you will receive a message letting you know what you need in order to clean and repair it.

## Reminders

* You must remain seated through the extraction process.
* You can **not** drink the extracts. They’re only used for crafting/cooking purposes.

Happy stomping!
