The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is [[Crafting#Artisan Equipment|Artisan Equipment]] used to make [[Artisan Goods]]. It takes [[wine]] and [[cheese]] and ages them to increase their quality and value.
Normal, silver, and gold quality items can be prematurely removed from a cask at any time by striking the cask with an [[Axes|Axe]], [[Hoes|Hoe]], or [[Pickaxes|Pickaxe]]. However, striking a cask with an [[Axes|Axe]], [[Pickaxes|Pickaxe]] or charged [[Hoes|Hoe]] when the cask is ready to harvest (with an iridium quality item) will may crash the game.
Casks are able to produce items with "iridium star" quality. Iridium star is the highest level of quality, which doubles the value of an item. Different types of items take longer or slower to age. [[Wine]] takes the longest -- 2 seasons of aging to go from basic wine to iridium quality wine.
==Bugs==
Striking a Cask that is ready to harvest (''i.e.'', contains an iridium quality item) with an [[Axes|Axe]] or [[Pickaxes|Pickaxe]] will crash the game. Striking a cask with a [[Hoes|Hoe]] will simply may harvest the item, or it may crash the game.
