Bread

Bread is a processed food produced from wheat and used as a higher-tier food good in Timberborn. Making bread requires a production chain rather than a single workstation, so it depends on farming, milling, and baking infrastructure before it reaches storage and consumption.

The full production process is: farmers grow and harvest wheat, the wheat is transported to a gristmill, the gristmill must be supplied with power, the miller turns the wheat into flour, and then the flour and logs are delivered to a bakery where the baker burns the logs to turn the flour into bread. Because bread is processed food, it has additional requirements compared with basic foods.

• Bread production begins with wheat farming, so an established agricultural setup is required before it can be made consistently.
• The gristmill is power-dependent; one source notes a surplus of 60 power in the network as a relevant requirement for the producing building.
• Flour and logs must both be available at the bakery for the final step.
• Since several different buildings and transports are involved, bread is best treated as a mid- to late-game food chain rather than an early emergency ration.
