Schedule 1 Game - The Ultimate Meth Barn Setup Guide: Efficiency and Profitability

Step 1: Getting Started - Preparations and Budget

Before you begin, ensure you have a budget of at least $80k to $100k. This will cover essential equipment, employees, and initial stock. Head over to Long John Silva's location (south of your sweatshop) to recruit employees.

Step 2: Hiring Employees

For maximum efficiency, you'll need:

• 8 Chemists

• 2 Handlers

Since the barn has a 10-employee cap, full automation isn't entirely possible, but this setup will get you as close as possible.

Step 3: Equipment and Furniture

Purchase and place the following:

• 4 Mixing Stations

• 3 Brick Presses

• 1 Packaging Station (Optional)

• 7 Chemistry Stations

• 7 Lab Ovens

• 10 Beds

• 30 Large Racks

Step 4: Setting Up the Barn

Sleeping Arrangements:

• 4 beds in one section, 3 beds in another, and 2 beds separately.

• The last bed can be placed wherever convenient.

Storage Racks Layout:

• Line up 30 large racks for optimal storage.

• Place 4 racks sideways for additional storage space.

• Designate specific racks for overflow storage.

Step 5: Setting Up Workstations

Align chemistry stations and lab ovens in a structured manner:

1. Chemistry Station → Lab Oven

2. Repeat this pattern, ensuring enough walking space between each.

3. The final station goes into the corner for optimization.

Assign each chemist to:

• One chemistry station

• One lab oven

Configure the recipe settings:

• Liquid Meth: Requires 1 Acid, 1 Pseudo, 1 Phosphorus

• Set Destination: Lab Oven

• Assign stations to racks accordingly

Step 6: Automating Brick Pressing

Assign one handler to oversee the brick pressing process:

1. Select 4 storage racks as input sources.

2. Assign them to 3 brick presses.

3. Route the finished product to a designated rack for further processing.

Step 7: Mixing for Maximum Profits

• Assign one chemist to operate two mixing stations.

• Adjust the minimum threshold to 10 to prevent premature mixing.

• Route the product output efficiently between racks.

Step 8: Handling Product Movement

The second handler will be responsible for transferring materials:

1. Move Horse Semen & Viagra between designated racks.

2. Transfer mixed product from the mixer to storage.

3. Relocate finished meth to designated racks for easy access.

Step 9: Supply Management

To ensure smooth production, consistently order:

• 160 Horse Semen & 160 Viagra (one full rack each)

• 160 Phosphorus & 160 Acid (split into two orders of 80 each)

• Pseudoephedrine via Shirley Watts (increase loyalty for better bulk options)

Step 10: Final Optimization

To increase efficiency:

• Stockpile materials for uninterrupted production.

• Use the Schedule Calculator (linked in the description) to determine the best meth mix for profit.

• Experiment with premium mixes using additional ingredients for higher selling prices.

Conclusion

This guide provides the most automated and optimized meth barn setup for maximum efficiency. With the right organization and resource management, you can create a profitable and streamlined operation. If this guide was helpful, stay tuned for the upcoming Cocaine Warehouse Guide!
