Intro
    Freshly Ground makes crafting at grain mills relevant and rewarding.
    Grain mills have been renamed and repurposed to crush, grind, and extract all manner of things. They're stone mills now. Want some honey? Use a stone mill. Need mammoth tusk powder? Use a stone mill. Vampirism showing? Use a stone mill.
    Being able to craft rare items is not the only incentive. You'll also earn Alchemy XP for each item you create. The amount earned is based on the value of the item created, just like Smithing at a forge.
    Don't like a recipe? No problem, you can disable it. Want to adjust a recipe? You can do that too, just make sure you have SKSE and SkyUI installed.
    What about DLC and mods? None of those things are required but several of them are supported. I've created add-ons for Dawnguard, Hunterborn, Ordinator, and the Complete Alchemy and Cooking Overhaul (CACO).
The Important Stuff
    You can use your existing save files.
    You only need Skyrim to get started.
      You can use grain mills without Hearthfire.
      You can craft blood potions without Dawnguard.
      You can configure the mod without SKSE and SkyUI.
    Recipes can be toggled.
    Recipe needs and yields can be adjusted.
      Adjusting recipe needs and yields requires SKSE and SkyUI.
    Recipes remain hidden unless you have an ingredient for them.
      Salt Piles are ignored due to the number of recipes that use them.
    More recipes are available via add-ons[www.nexusmods.com].
      Download Freshly Ground Dawnguard for Dawnguard recipes.
      Download Freshly Ground CACO for CACO and Hearthfire recipes.
      Download Freshly Ground Hunterborn for Hunterborn and Dragonborn recipes.
      Download Freshly Ground Ordinator for Ordinator recipes.
        Both the DLC and non-DLC versions of Ordinator are supported.
    Load Freshly Ground after other mods to ensure the best results.
      If you see duplicate recipes, there's likely a conflict.
      If you are not earning Alchemy XP, there's likely a conflict.
      If you cannot activate a grain mill, there's likely a conflict.
      If grain mills have not beeen renamed, there's likely a conflict.
Recipe List
    The full recipe list exceeds the character limit Steam Workshop provides for mod descriptions. I have made the complete list available on Skyrim Nexus[www.nexusmods.com] instead.
Outro
    Freshly Ground v1.2 would be smaller in scale and still in development were it not for the efforts of fiskin1 and BrinaSair on Nexus Mods. fiskin1 ported the mod to Skyrim SE and supported it in my absence. BrinaSair provided detailed feedback and started working on an Ordinator patch for the SE version. Their efforts inspired me to update the original mod which then ballooned into updating both versions, creating several add-ons, and porting the mod to consoles. Thank you both!
    I also want to thank everyone for their patience. I know several years have passed since you last saw a release from me. I'm hoping to change that. I plan on updating Freshly Picked next. I also intend to port all of my Skyrim mods to SE but I don't have a time-frame for you.

@Everyone

I'm so sorry for the late replies! I'm going to address all of them now.

@BTX

I wish! Skyrim doesn't feature any harvestable salt crystals and adding new content is outside of the scope of this mod.

@Russian Spy

No problem, that'll be one favorite and a like, please! :)

@FencingRabbit

I want to say it's Hide Armor with Hide Boots. It's been a while though. Sorry!

@dreamveil

I know you may have given up by now, but it sounds like you have some kind of conflict. Try loading Freshly Ground after your other mods.

It is not doing anything. :(

Let us make salt
Kain-Xavier  [author] 25 Jul, 2015 @ 7:49pm 
Welcome! Thanks again for the suggestion!

thanks

@Khan

The recipes are disabled by default and have to be enabled in SkyUI's mod configuration menu or through the console with "set KMXFGMagicSaltsEnabled to 1.0". Once enabled you will need a salt pile, a flawless ruby/sapphire/amethyst, and any filled soul gem to craft one of the fire/frost/void salts.

ok btw do you need any skill set to use this? i dont get the recipe for any of the salts

I did some digging and the Moon Sugar + Nightshade recipe actually originated from a book in an Oblivion mod: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion_talk:Skooma#Indgedients

I may add the recipe in a future release but I don't have plans to add anything else at the moment.
