The Potion Making Handbook by Auntie Septic

Of all the cures a quack, I mean, professional doctor, can craft, potions are the trickiest.

They require concentration...quite literally!

Firstly, interact with the potion station, always positioned to the right of an apothecary crafting room.

Grab an ingredient and put it into the crusher. Pull the handle down to squeeze out every bit of goodness from your material.

Take the green tube full of lovely juice and pour it into the cauldron.

Now is the part that needs utmost concentration!

Note the reaction that happens after pouring. If the temperature gauge rises, turn down the heat with the switch on the hob.

See ice appear? Then increase the heat.

Look at the smoke and note its colour. You must use the carousel above the cauldron to select a counter-agent which is the OPPOSITE colour to the smoke.

Use the colour wheel to check what this is.

Then, grate, slice, press, or squeeze the suitable reagent container to add enough to the cauldron to neutralise the reaction.

Repeat for the remaining ingredients, then pour out, and your potion is ready to go and hopefully not ready to blow!
