Brewing/Baking/Refining
Game Menu -> Cooking -> Cooking Stations

Brewing/Baking and Refining are methods to interchange consumable items. Up to four ingredients can be mixed together to create a new consumable item. Cooking can take quite some time depending on the method and grade of the ingredients. Potion brewing may take a long time while refining ingredients goes quickly.

Brewing: Brewing results are always Potions. Potions are used to help Pixpets on their hoards, or as ingredients for evobars. If the wrong set of ingredients is chosen, the resulting potion will be useless. Sometimes multiples of ingredients are required for successful brewing. The result potion will have the color of the colored ingredient and the average grade of all ingredients. Potions with a grade of 0 are (mostly) useless.

Baking: Baking results are always Evobars. Evobars are used to evolve or devolve Pixpets. However, an Evobar must have a certain grade to be effective. Evobars don't have an assigned color and are always neutral.

Refining: Refining Ingredients is mostly used to prepare ingredients for either brewing or baking.

Instant Cook Super Potion: To instantly brew/bake/refine ingredients, you can use an Instant Cook Super Potion. Super potions will be explained in detail later in this tutorial.

Buy Basic Ingredients: Often a recipe requires Basic Ingredients which can be bought directly with Pixcoins under Game Menu -> Cooking -> Buy Basic Ingredients

Recipes: There are recipes for brewing, baking and refining. All recipes can be found on the bottom of the respective cooking page. If you produce a successful cooking result, the recipe will be added to your Recipe Book. The recipe book is an index of all available recipes where you can collect them. It can be found under Game Menu -> Cooking -> Recipe Book

Be careful to follow a recipe exactly! Sometimes multiple items of the same kind or minimum grades are required.
