New Harvestables & Their Moodlets

[Ricalynn]

I took the time to gather all the new herbs and coffee beans then I had two of my Sims eat all of them to see what their moodlets would be.    Eating them gives you a 8hr moodlet and using them on a fire keeps them for as long as the fire is burning and then 3 hours after your Sim has left the bonfire's vicinity.

Herbs
Basil - Artie is feeling quite ambitious and opportunistic.  Now's the time to show work who's boss and earn that promotion!
Bumbleleaf - Artie feels invincible! He won't get caught tagging and cheating and can withstand fire for a few hours too.
Buzzberry - Getting more athletic has never been easier for Artie!
Chamomile - Artie feels rather social right now, and will have no trouble fitting in with any social group.
Cinnamon - Spicy. Saucy.  Brave.  Artie is feeling all of these right now and he is ready to get romantic.
Ginseng - If there's ever a time for late night studying or antics, it's now! Artie won't be crashing due to low energy anytime soon.
Greenleaf - Losing weight won't be difficult for Artie.  He's feeling quite motivated to shed some pounds.
Lavender - Sleep is for the week and Artie isn't weak.  He can spend more time doing stuff and less time sleeping.
Licorice - Artie isn't feeling hungry right now.  Actually, he probably won't be hungry for a while.
Peppermint - Everybody loves the fresh taste of Peppermint including Artie.
Sweetgrass - No Moodlet but it gets rid of the Buzz crash moodlet after having coffee or an energy drink.
Wonderpetal - Artie is in quite the studious mood.  A little studying and paying attention during class will go a long way!

Coffee Beans - these are from eating the coffee beans raw.
Cortado Buzz - The decadent taste of the Cortado Bean left Hebe feeling ready to face the world again! This time with fewer bathroom breaks.
Kona Lift - The myserious Kona Bean has given Artie a serious buzz.  He feels ready to run through walls!
Maui Slappucino - Hebe's loving the effect of the Maui Bean yet doesn't feel a post coffee crash coming.  She couldn't feel better.  (Do not receive Buzz crash from this one)
Midnight Buzz - The effects of the Midnight Bean left Artie's reflexes primed for any gaming challenge.  Bring it on!
Red Rocket Buzz - The Red Berry Bean flooded Artie with B-vitamins, X-foliants and oxidaziants to create an explosion of flavor in his mouth.
Coffee Breath - That raw coffee bean was delicious but now Artie's breath smells like stale coffee beans.  (From eat a raw coffee bean)

Thanks for this, Ricalynn. Can you plant and grow coffee beans, or are they collectibles more like gems or wildflowers? I got mixed impressions from pre-release information.

They're all plantable.  Then you can use the coffee beans to operate your own in home barista.    I found out after collecting that everything is also available in buydebug.   The only plant you can't get form buydebug is the forbidden fruit.

[Autumn Morning]

Great! I love new plants to use at home! Thanks.

Can you buy any of these in the grocery store, or do they all have to be found in the world?  I haven't had much luck finding collectables, but I haven't spent too much time on it yet.

[Ricalynn]

I found all of them but the forbidden fruit at the grocery store.  They're also possibilities of finding them as seeds around town.

Great info! Thanks so much for sharing!

Question(s):

1) Can you make "tea" - I did not see a tea set or tea maker in inventory for small appliances? Or coffee pot does both?
2) Does the coffee maker or espresso give you the option on what kind of coffee you want?

The herbs are something I am really interested - I have been waiting For Ever for decaf LOL (no buzz effect). Can't wait to try them all out.

[Ricalynn]

The coffee pot hasn't changed.  To get the new coffees and teas you have to place a barista bar on your lot.

[mappam]

Ah Ha! Thanks Ricalyn I appreciate the info!!

Is the Barista bar in with the other "bars" or separate?

[Ricalynn]

It is or you can just choose the Uni Life collection to find it as well.

[Kasumitkhs]

I'm interested to know if these teas and coffees will be allowed in the Dynasty Challenges and also for any other challenges.
Speaking of which, how is the official verdict on what we can and cannot do from University Life coming along?

[Ricalynn]

Questions about dynasties are off topic for this thread and will not be answered.  All things dynasty will be released in time on the appropriate threads.

Thanks so much for putting together this list, Ricalynn.

I have one thing to add: my Sim got a moodlet lasting only 3 hours from drinking herbal tea, so it's probably better to just buy the herb and eat it. Also, there's a day job opportunity to gather herbs and take them to the Science Building. You can satisfy it by buying the herbs at the Night Owl grocery store, and it pays $1000.

[geekchic]

I wonder if drinking wonderpetal tea and eating wonderpetal would up the moodlet length to 12 hrs.

[Ricalynn]

As far as I know it just changes the moodlet length but when I tried something similar I kept getting herb sickness from too many herbs.
