Mechanical Compacting and Deep Frying in Create Food

guide

Mechanical compacting basins and deep frying vats in Create Food automate large-scale snack preparation, meatball shaping, and breaded finger food processing. Utilizing mechanical presses and hot frying oil enables production lines to turn raw bulk ingredients into golden appetizers.

Pressing and Compacting Appetizers

Compacting basins utilize overhead mechanical presses to compress raw foodstuffs and dairy bases into uniform snacks without requiring manual shaping:

Apple Popsicle: Place one Stick, two blocks of Ice, and one Apple into a compacting basin. Applying mechanical press pressure consolidates the ingredients into one chilled Apple Popsicle.
Beef Meatball: Feed one portion of Ground Beef into a compacting basin. The mechanical press compacts the meat to produce a batch of two Beef Meatballs simultaneously.
Breakfast Bar: Place one portion of Egg Powder, one Cocoa Powder, and one Milk Powder into a basin filled with 250mb of fluid. Pressing the powdered mixture yields two nutritious Breakfast Bars.
Bar of Dark Chocolate: Pouring 250mb of molten chocolate fluid into a compacting basin and applying press force solidifies the liquid into one firm Bar of Dark Chocolate.
Bar of White Chocolate: Compacting 250mb of white chocolate fluid produces one smooth Bar of White Chocolate.

Preparing Breaded Finger Foods

Before deep frying, kitchen lines prepare raw ingredients through automated coating stations. Combining breadcrumbs with sliced proteins produces uniform uncooked snacks:

Raw Chicken Patty: Coat one Unbreaded Chicken Patty with one portion of Bread Crumbs to form a ready-to-fry Raw Chicken Patty.
Raw Fish Sticks: Combine one Raw Tropical Fish Slice with Bread Crumbs to prepare one portion of Raw Fish Sticks.
Raw Mozzarella Sticks: Encase one Slice of Cheese in Bread Crumbs to assemble Raw Mozzarella Sticks.
Raw Onion Rings: Dredge one Sliced Onion in Bread Crumbs to create Raw Onion Rings.

Deep Frying Savory Snacks

Frying setups submerge breaded portions into boiling cooking oil to prepare crisp appetizers. Each batch consumes exactly 125mb of cooking oil to fry raw prepared finger foods:

Chicken Patty: Submerging one Raw Chicken Patty in 125mb of cooking oil produces one golden, fully cooked Chicken Patty.
Fish Sticks: Frying one portion of Raw Fish Sticks in 125mb of cooking oil yields one batch of crispy Fish Sticks.
Mozzarella Sticks: Immersing one Raw Mozzarella Sticks portion in 125mb of oil melts the cheese core to produce one batch of Mozzarella Sticks.
Onion Rings: Cooking one Raw Onion Rings portion in 125mb of oil fries the battered exterior into one portion of crispy Onion Rings.

Industrial Kitchen Layouts

Optimizing deep frying lines requires dedicated fluid piping to maintain continuous oil supplies to the frying basin. Players can route meat mincers and breadcrumb coating machines directly into mechanical press basins before outputting raw patties and sticks into heated oil fryers, creating a fully autonomous culinary factory.
