Ihavenothing364 Posted November 4, 2025 Report Posted November 4, 2025 As the title says does having your cellar at certain depths affect how well it is able to preserve foods and alcohols? And if so, would it be worth it to make a deep underground cellar?
Bumber Posted November 5, 2025 Report Posted November 5, 2025 Wiki says only climate at sea level is considered. (I assume it actually means temperature, because the rate changes with season.)
Solution Maelstrom Posted November 6, 2025 Solution Report Posted November 6, 2025 Natural light and presence of wood have the biggest impact on a cellar. Be sure to seal the cellar with a basic door to keep light out. Also do not use wood flooring or walls. Shelves and chest/trunks might have a minor negative impact as well.
JustAnotherGeek77 Posted November 9, 2025 Report Posted November 9, 2025 Why is it that wood has a negative impact on cellars? Curious as I used wooden slabs as my ceiling of my cellar/floor of the main house.

As per the Handbook "Build cellar walls from soil, brick or stone materials." Your main enemy though is sunlight, so building it a few blocks down helps. Professor Dragon.

Could've sworn it just needed to be insulated blocks... though that explains a bit. I'll have to rethink my floor. Thanks! 1
