pepper bread Produce too much Pepper Bread

[kupenk]

So i'm in cycle 300 with 20 duplicant, and i'm using pepper bread as my main source of food, but apparently i produce way too much food, so they take space, and ultimately take power. so i need to stop growing the food to minimize food stockpile. its frustate me coz i need constanty stop the production, so how much tile of food ( sleet and pepper each) i need to produce to make a sustainable pepper bread for 20 people ( not overproduction but not under production).

here my base

Take a look at this food guide

It shows exactly how many plants you need per dupe.

If using farmer touch you will need 50% less.

I have a single refrigerator for the dupes to take from and when that is full it disables the grill via an automation-wire.

I have 1 million on calories on food, all stored in 3.5 ration boxes sitting in CO2. Never rots, and very efficient.

I have the PERFECT solution for you. The infinite food storage system.

With some incredibly simple automation, a bit of shipping, and a bit of water and chlorine, you can store an infinite amount of food, ingredients, or even slime/oxylite if you want.

Simple explanation, the auto-sweeper in the tower on the left is on an automation loop that disables it every 2 seconds for 0.1 seconds. This gives it enough time to grab food from the hopper just below it, but it drops it when disabled. The food falls out of reach of the sweeper, and into reach of dupes, behind the drop of water, in a chlorine bath.

The two hoppers on the right are for food and ingredients. One is just for food for the autosweeper to put cooked food into the infinite storage, the other is sweep only for ingrediants, allowing dupe manual use, so you can sweep wild grown food into it.

Some overlays of automation and shipping.

Filter is set for 0.1 seconds, buffer for 2 seconds.
