一句话:要爆发收益看杨桃酒;要长期省心看古代果实酒。用下面 3 个预设直接在计算器里复现。

TL;DR

  • If you want peak profit per harvest and can replant, Starfruit Wine is usually stronger.
  • If you want low-maintenance long-run consistency, Ancient Fruit Wine is usually the better baseline.
  • Do not guess. Open a preset and compare with your season and days left.
  • 追求单次爆发收益且能补种:杨桃酒通常更强。
  • 追求长期稳定且省心:古代果实酒通常更优。
  • 别靠感觉:用预设直接带入计算器,按你自己的窗口期对比。

How to decide in 30 seconds

  1. Short campaign (10-28 days): Starfruit Wine often wins on burst output.
  2. Greenhouse long run: Ancient Fruit Wine is usually the stable default engine.
  3. If your processing line is tight, compare both with identical parameters before committing.

This page is a shortcut, not a universal law. Starfruit Wine is attractive when you can buy seeds, replant on schedule, and keep kegs running. Ancient Fruit Wine becomes better when you value fewer clicks, predictable weekly harvests, and a greenhouse that does not need constant seed purchases. If your kegs are already backed up, the crop with the higher wine price may not be the crop that improves this week’s cash flow.

The answer changes with Artisan, season length, and whether you are comparing one harvest or a repeatable engine. Run the exact setup in the calculator, read the fuller wine comparison guide, and check how many kegs you need before scaling.
