I love a lot of the changes to brewing, but pooling seems to be really hard now. Case in point:
I have 48 ranks in brewing and there are only two things at all I can pool brewing from: rum mash and rum itself. Not even gin mash, which is closer to my rank than rum mash!
6. Whiskey Mash ( 39) N
9. Whiskey ( 41) N
53. Pomace Brandy (Apple) ( 42) N
8. Rum Mash ( 44) Y
743. Gin Mash ( 45) N
11. Rum ( 46) Y
Is there any way we can get this loosened up? It'd be nice if there was better support for more lenient pooling in crafts like brewing with fewer recipes; otherwise you end up in the position of having to make a lot of expensive things you don't need just to get up in rank at all.
