1 Why the 小桶 Is the Foundation of a Profitable Farm
The 小桶 is the most profitable crafting station for farmers in 星露谷物语. Place a fruit or vegetable inside and it transforms into wine or juice — multiplying the base crop value by 2x for juice (vegetables) and 3x for wine (fruit). With the 工匠 profession at 耕种等级 10, those values increase to 2.25x and 3.375x respectively. A single 杨桃 worth 750g becomes 杨桃 酒 worth 2,250g (or 3,150g with 工匠) — and if aged in a Cask to Iridium quality, it sells for a staggering 6,300g per bottle.
The 小桶 is the centerpiece of every late-game money-making strategy. Unlike crops that must be replanted every season, 小桶s work year-round indoors — place them in a 棚屋 or your 地窖 and they produce income every day regardless of weather or season. A full 棚屋 (67 小桶s) running 杨桃 酒 generates over 400,000g per harvest cycle. The only limiting factor is how many 小桶s you can build and how much produce you can feed them.
A single 小桶 pays for itself after processing just 2-3 high-value crops. With 50 小桶s in a 棚屋 processing 古代水果 酒, you earn ~100,000g every 7 days with zero daily maintenance. The 小桶 transforms farming from a daily chore into a passive-income empire. No watering, no replanting, no season restrictions — just profit.
Best 作物s for 小桶 Processing
| 作物 | Input Type | Base Value | 小桶 Output | With 工匠 | Processing Time | Gold Per 日 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 杨桃 | Fruit | 750g | 酒: 2,250g | 3,150g | 7 days | 450g |
| 古代水果 | Fruit | 550g | 酒: 1,650g | 2,310g | 7 days | 330g |
| Pumpkin | Vegetable | 320g | 果汁: 640g | 896g | 4 days | 160g |
| Melon | Fruit | 250g | 酒: 750g | 1,050g | 7 days | 107g |
| Cranberries | Fruit | 75g | 酒: 225g | 315g | 7 days | 32g |
| Blueberry | Fruit | 50g | 酒: 150g | 210g | 7 days | 21g |
| Hops | Vegetable | 25g | 淡啤酒: 300g | 420g | 1-2 days | 300g |
| Wheat | Vegetable | 25g | Beer: 200g | 280g | 1-2 days | 200g |
Note: Hops → 淡啤酒 is the best daily income (淡啤酒 takes only 1-2 days), making it ideal for early-game 小桶 farming before you unlock 古代水果 or 杨桃.

3 材料与来源
Each material listed with exact source, season, location, and farming tips.
🟤 铜锭
季节： Any — available year-round
地点： Mines 层 1-39, abundant copper-colored nodes
Best 层: 20-35 for dense copper spawns
替代方案： Buy from 铁匠铺 (180g each on 第一年, 360g 第二年+)
技巧： Copper is needed in enormous quantities early game (洒水器s, 压酪机, 蛋黄酱机, etc.). Mine extra whenever you descend — you'll never have too much copper.
⚙️ 铁锭
季节： Any — available year-round
地点： Mines 层 40-79, blue-gray iron nodes
Best 层: 55-70 for dense iron spawns
替代方案： Buy from 铁匠铺 (360g 第一年, 720g 第二年+), Fishing Treasure Chests
技巧： Iron becomes abundant once you reach 层 40. Don't bother buying 铁锭s — the ore is plentiful and smelting is cheap.
🌳 橡树树脂
季节： Any — produces year-round
地点： Oak Trees on your farm, 煤林森林, Railroad area
Production Time: 6-7 days per resin drop
需求： 采集等级 3 to craft 树液采集器s (40 木头 + 2 铜锭s)
技巧： Place 树液采集器s on 10-15 Oak Trees as soon as you hit 采集等级 3 (early 春季 第一年). By the time you reach 耕种等级 8, you'll have a stockpile of 20+ 橡树树脂 — enough for multiple 小桶s plus other recipes.
Visual ID: Oak Trees have lighter bark with small rounded leaves. Do NOT confuse with Maple (broader leaves) or Pine (needles).
🪵 木头
季节： Any — available year-round
地点： Your farm (regrows), 煤林森林, Railroad, 秘密森林
Yield: ~4-6 木头 per tree (more with Forester profession)
替代方案： Buy from 罗宾 (10g each, 300g for 30)
技巧： Trees on your farm regrow from seeds that spawn naturally. Clear a section for your farm buildings, but leave some trees for continuous wood supply. The 秘密森林 (northwest of 煤林森林, requires Steel Axe to clear log) has 6 Large Stumps that respawn daily, giving 2 硬木 each.
🌾 Farming XP — Reaching Level 8
Level 8 Requirement: 7,500 XP total
Fastest Method: Plant high-volume, fast-growing crops each season: Parsnips (春季, 4 days), Hot Peppers (夏季, 5 days, regrows), Cranberries (秋季, 7 days, regrows multiple berries). Regrowing crops like Cranberries give XP every harvest — plant them on 日 1 of 秋季 for maximum gains.
Professions: At Level 5, choose Tiller (crops worth 10% more) → at Level 10, 工匠 (artisan goods worth 40% more). This is the universally recommended path and makes 小桶 products 40% more valuable.
4 最优收集路线
Follow this order to build your first 小桶 by mid-夏季 第一年 and scale to a full 小桶 棚屋 by 秋季 or 冬季.
① 春季 第一年 — 树液采集器s + Early Mining
日 1-3: Plant 15-20 Parsnips (cheap, 4-day grow time, good Farming XP). Chop trees for 木头 — aim for 200+ 木头 stockpile.
日 5-7: Reach 采集等级 3 (chop stumps, forage spring items). Immediately craft 10-15 树液采集器s and place them on Oak Trees. This is your 橡树树脂 production line — critical for 小桶s.
日 10-15: Descend the Mines to 层 40+. Collect 铜矿石 (层 10-30) and 铁矿石 (层 40+). Smelt 1 铜锭 and 1 铁锭 — set aside for your future 小桶. Continue planting crops: Potatoes (春季, high sell value) or Kale.
② 夏季 第一年 — 耕种等级 8 Push
日 1 of 夏季: Plant Hops and Melons in bulk. Hops are the best early 小桶 crop — 淡啤酒 processes in just 1-2 days and sells for 300g (420g with 工匠). Plant 20-40 Hops if you have the trellises.
Melons give solid Farming XP (8 XP per harvest) and process into 酒 for 750g. Plant as many as your watering capacity allows.
Check 橡树树脂: Your 树液采集器s placed in 春季 should have produced 2-3 batches by now. Collect all 橡树树脂 — you should have 15-30 by mid-夏季. Remove 树液采集器s from excess trees if you have enough.
Farming XP Math: Each crop harvested gives XP. With 40 Hops (harvest daily after 11 days) + 20 Melons, you'll earn ~200-300 Farming XP per day. From Level 5, this reaches Level 8 in approximately 25-30 days of active farming.
③ Craft First 小桶 + Start 淡啤酒 Production
Upon reaching 耕种等级 8 (likely mid-to-late 夏季 第一年 with aggressive farming):
Open crafting menu → Craft your first 小桶. Place it in your house or a shed. Immediately place a Hops inside → produces 淡啤酒 in 1-2 days for 300g (420g 工匠).
Craft 3-5 more 小桶s immediately. With your stockpiled 橡树树脂, this should be easy. Each 小桶 processes one crop at a time — more 小桶s = more simultaneous processing.
④ 秋季 — Scale to a 小桶 棚屋
Build a 棚屋 from 罗宾 (300 木头, 100 石头). A standard 棚屋 holds 67 小桶s arranged efficiently. By 秋季, you should have enough 橡树树脂 from your 春季 树液采集器s to craft 20-30 小桶s.
Plant Cranberries on 秋季 日 1 (regrow every 5 days after 7-day initial growth). Each harvest gives multiple berries + Farming XP. Process Cranberries in 小桶s for Cranberry 酒 (225g base, 315g 工匠).
Alternatively, save your best crops for 小桶s and sell the rest. A 小桶 棚屋 with 30 小桶s produces ~6,750g every 7 days (with 工匠) even with basic crops.
⑤ 冬季 + Beyond — 古代水果 Transition
In 冬季, outdoor farming stops but 小桶s keep working indoors. Use the 种子生产器 (耕种等级 9) to replicate Ancient 种子s. Plant 古代水果 in the 温室 (unlocked via 社区中心 Pantry bundle or purchased from Joja for 35,000g).
古代水果 grows year-round in the 温室, regrows every 7 days, and processes into 古代水果 酒 worth 1,650g (2,310g 工匠) per bottle. This is the endgame 小桶 strategy — fill your 温室 with 古代水果 and your 棚屋s with 小桶s for infinite, passive income.
For maximum profit, place filled 酒 bottles in Casks in your 地窖 (unlocked with final House upgrade from 罗宾, 100,000g). Casks age 酒 to Silver (14 days, 1.25x), Gold (28 days, 1.5x), and Iridium quality (56 days, 2x). Iridium-quality 杨桃 酒 sells for 6,300g with 工匠.
5 ⚠ 避坑指南 — 别浪费时间
These mistakes cost you entire seasons of profit. Read this before you start.
Many players place 树液采集器s on any tree and expect 橡树树脂. 树液采集器s on Maple Trees produce Maple Syrup. 树液采集器s on Pine Trees produce 松焦油. Only Oak Trees produce 橡树树脂 — and you need one per 小桶. Oak Trees have lighter bark and small rounded leaves. Place 树液采集器s correctly or you'll end up with 20 Maple Syrup and zero 橡树树脂.
You cannot reach 耕种等级 8 by passively tending a small garden. You need to plant 40+ crops per season and harvest consistently. Parsnips → Potatoes → Melons → Cranberries is the optimal XP path. Don't neglect planting on 日 1 of each season — delayed planting means delayed Level 8.
小桶s placed outside on your farm continue to work in 冬季 (they're not affected by season), but if you want a clean, organized farm, build a 棚屋 (300 木头, 100 石头 from 罗宾). 棚屋s hold 67 小桶s efficiently and protect them visually. The 地窖 also works but is better reserved for Casks.
At 耕种等级 10, the 工匠 profession (artisan goods worth 40% more) is one of the best profession choices in the entire game. It applies to 酒, 果汁, Cheese, Mayonnaise, Jelly, 蜂蜜, 松露油 — everything. The alternative (Agriculturist — crops grow 10% faster) is significantly weaker. Plan your skill path: Tiller (Level 5) → 工匠 (Level 10).
A Gold Quality Melon and a Base Quality Melon produce the exact same 酒 when placed in a 小桶. Don't save your best crops for 小桶s — sell high-quality crops directly and use base-quality crops for processing. The only exception: crop value (not quality) determines output value — expensive crops always produce expensive artisan goods.
Many players only put fruit in 小桶s and miss that Hops → 淡啤酒 (300g) and Wheat → Beer (200g) are incredibly efficient. 淡啤酒 processes in just 1-2 days — the fastest-turnover 小桶 product. A 小桶 running 淡啤酒 generates 300g every 1-2 days, outperforming most 酒 options on a per-day basis.
6 🎁 额外收益 — 顺路能拿到的好东西
While building your 小桶 empire, you'll naturally accumulate resources, XP, and infrastructure that benefit every aspect of your farm. Don't leave these on the table.
While waiting for 橡树树脂, your 树液采集器s on Maple Trees produce Maple Syrup (needed for 蜂房 + Chef's Bundle) and 树液采集器s on Pine Trees produce 松焦油 (needed for 织布机 + 雨水图腾). One tree farm supports multiple crafting recipes simultaneously.
While collecting Copper and Iron for 小桶s, you'll also gather: 金矿石 (for Quality 洒水器s), 煤炭 (for smelting everything), geodes (museum donations), and Combat XP from mine monsters. The mines are a one-stop shop for multiple crafting needs.
At 耕种等级 8, you unlock both the 小桶 and the Deluxe 肥料 recipe. At Level 9, you unlock the 种子生产器 and 铱制洒水器. At Level 10, the 工匠 profession transforms your entire economy. Every farming level-up is a major milestone.
The 棚屋 you build for 小桶s can also house Jars (耕种等级 4 — make Jelly and Pickles), 织布机s ( 耕种等级 7 — turn Wool into Cloth), and 产油机s (耕种等级 8 — 松露油 from 松露s). A single processing shed handles all your artisan goods.
The 食材包 rewards a 温室 (year-round farming). The 金库包 unlocks the Bus to 卡利科沙漠. Completing the 社区中心 triggers the movie theater and other endgame content. Many bundle items (酒, 果汁, Cheese) are exactly what you produce in 小桶s.
The discipline of planting trellis crops (Hops), harvesting daily, and feeding 小桶s on a schedule is exactly the same workflow you'll use for 古代水果 in the 温室. Master Hops in 夏季 第一年, and 古代水果 farming in 第二年 will feel effortless.
