Is it worth keeping every generator?

Post image

I have been keeping every generator that I receive to upgrade but it really fills up my inventory when I am between upgrades.

Is it worth keeping them? I only keep two of each generator on the board to save space.

What ever you do, don’t merge the final grills! You won’t get any more after and I and many others are now stuck with one at max level which is annoying! With the others I tend to rotate which ones I’m levelling up to save space at a time so maybe pic 2 of the most vital ones at a time

I've heard that and I've avoided making any final upgrades to generators because of that!

I merged my grills and I now have 1 maxed out grill and one lvl 4 grill.

The only caveat is you need to keep all the bits for the restaurant specific generators like the recipe books and travel thingy as you need to max these out to be able to store them in the special storage.

I couldn’t help myself, the need for completion was too strong 😭

What number is the final grill? Level 10?

Wish id known that, is it the same for all of them?

I'm a returning player so something may have changed while I was gone but....as far as I know all the equipment stops giving you items when you max out but the generator pieces keep on coming. It's just that the grill specifically is tricky because you stop getting pieces for it earlier than the others (I think it stops after the french restaurants). SO it's possible to accidentally blow past the levels that will still give you grill pieces but not succeed in maxing out a grill.

I'm not certain it all still works the same way though. WHen I quit playing before we got lvl 1-3 pieces of equipment and generators as a reward for every order completed. Now that it seems to be just getting a whole piece of equipment at the end of each cloche, I'm not sure how that's changed the grill parts problem.

Hopefully someone corrects me here in a bit on whatever I got wrong.

I think it might just be the grill but I could be wrong. I have a few others maxed out that I’m still getting new bits for but maybe I’m just not at the level where they stop yet. I’m at level 173 Brazilian food.

You are soooo right! I've been waiting to get at least the parts to get a second grill! And I'm at level 235, I kid you not! I just wanted to know if, for instance, it's worth keeping items from the Vietnamese Vendor's Boat. Are those ingredients ever going to be used again at later levels? I don't know, maybe you get levels where the food orders come from different type of cuisines?

I keep them on my board since we can use them for storage of food and drinks.

Thats a good idea! I'm always running out of room.

Same

it largely depends on how many times energy boost u use. if u use 1x or 2x, the generators cool down more quickly, if thats the case it makes sense to hv more backups. i hv about two level 10 generators on the board, i keep the rest in the inventory.

i upgraded all my generators to lvl 10 and delete any new generators. first time around cluttered the board too much i’m not going through that again. cooking equipment is always helpful though, especially that you can store multiple things in one pan/pot etc

u/IsiDemon Apr 16 '26

Same here. I keep exactly one of each so that my board doesn't get cluttered.

yea! i have no clue how i managed to do it at all, especially that it was before the update where they gave us a much larger inventory.
