Mayonnaise machine Stardew Valley?

The mayonnaise machine in Stardew Valley is one of the most profitable artisan equipment pieces you can craft early in the game, transforming basic eggs into valuable mayonnaise for substantial profit increases.

How to Get a Mayonnaise Machine

To craft a mayonnaise machine, you'll need to reach Farming Level 2 and gather these materials:

- 15 Wood

- 15 Stone

- 1 Earth Crystal

- 1 Copper Bar

Once crafted, place it anywhere on your farm and start processing eggs immediately.

Profit Margins and Processing Times

The mayonnaise machine processes one egg at a time, taking 3 hours and 20 minutes to complete. Here's how different eggs translate to profit:

Regular Eggs

- Chicken egg (50g) → Regular mayonnaise (200g) = 300% profit increase

- Duck egg (95g) → Duck mayonnaise (375g) = 295% profit increase

Quality Considerations

Unlike preserve jars, mayonnaise machines don't factor in egg quality - a gold star egg produces the same mayonnaise as a regular egg. This makes them perfect for processing lower-quality eggs while saving your silver and gold star eggs for direct selling.

Scaling Your Operation

For maximum efficiency, build multiple mayonnaise machines. A standard coop holds 4 chickens producing 4 eggs daily, so having 8-12 machines ensures you can process eggs around the clock without bottlenecks.

Advanced Tips

Consider the Artisan profession (Level 10 Farming) which increases artisan good prices by 40%. With this perk, regular mayonnaise sells for 280g instead of 200g, making your profit margins even more impressive.
