Kaleidoscope Tavern Drinks Chain and the Furniture Set

guide

Kaleidoscope Tavern Drinks Chain and the Furniture Set covers two connected projects: brewing wine and other drinks from simple ingredients, and building the bar furniture that serves them. Both halves rely on a few shared blocks, so it helps to learn the Barrel and the Pressing Tub before you start decorating.

Growing Grapes

Grapes begin with a Grapevine. Plant one on a Trellis placed one block above the soil. The Grapevine will prioritize growing onto the Trellis above it, then spread horizontally to surrounding Trellis blocks.

When a Trellis holding a Grapevine has an empty space below it, it will begin to bear grapes. Once the grapes are ripe, harvesting them with an empty hand yields 1-2 grapes, while harvesting with Shears yields 2-3 grapes.

Finding Grapevines in the Wild

Grapevines also generate naturally. Explore around, and you can find them on trees in the wild. Similar to bee nests, using Bone Meal on a tree sapling near flowers also has a chance to generate Grapevine.

No tools are needed to collect them — break them with an empty hand to obtain Grapevine. A Grapevine can be planted under full blocks and leave blocks. Planted this way, it will grow downwards but will not bear grapes. Use Shears to prune a Grapevine, stopping its downward growth.

Using the Barrel

Start by opening the lid. Add the fluid and any required ingredients, then close the lid once everything is ready. Wait patiently for the wine to brew — the longer it brews, the higher the quality of the wine. Right-click the Barrel to check the brewing progress.

To collect the result, place a Glass Bottle under the tap and right-click it to bottle the finished wine.

The Pressing Tub

The Pressing Tub stores items and presses them into juice. Right-click it with an item stack to store that item. It can only hold one type of item at a time. Right-click with an empty hand to take out 1 item, or sneak and right-click with an empty hand to take out all items.

To press juice, place pressable ingredients into the Pressing Tub, then jump on it repeatedly to gradually press the ingredients into juice. If the item inside cannot be pressed, it will be scattered by the jumping.

Placing a Pressing Tub against a wall creates an angled variant. Angled Pressing Tub blocks can still store items normally, but they cannot be used for pressing juice, and their contents will not be scattered by jumping.
