Alchemy is one of the best ways to make your Graveyard Keeper playthrough easy. Alchemy won't be unlocked until you open the church. Once you do, you can start building alchemy workstations to create items and brew potions. The only other way to get ahold of these items is to pay high prices to the witch for a very limited amount of options. Most of the ingredients needed to craft potions can easily be taken from bodies or foraged from the environment around you. If you want to get started in alchemy or are just looking for the best products to make in mass, then this list of the top ten alchemy items will help.

10 Heal Potion

One of the most useful recipes you will learn is the health potion recipe. The potion can be crafter at the first workbench like many of the items on this list and can be made from two different combinations. You can either use life powder and health solution or health powder and chaos solution to create a heal potion. The item can also be found in the dungeon if you are lucky.

The heal potion will restore 50 points of health instantly and can make it easier to tackle the lower levels of the dungeon.

9 Black Paint

You don't understand how much black paint your going to need until you realize that it's essential for several quests. In order to write books and make flyers, you will need to mass-produce black paint. The item can be made from three different combinations graphite powder and water, ash and oil, or death powder and water. All of these ingredients can be obtained quickly, especially if you have the crematorium.

Black paint can be used to create ink later on in the church workbench, which will be needed to finish several quests, including the inquisitor's plotline.

8 Flavor Enhancer

Flavor Enhancer may not seem like that big of a deal when you first hear the name, but it can help you gain coin quickly. Flavor enhancer is one of the key ingredients in making fertilizer. Fertilizer is the item that helps you make gold star vegetables, which can then be sold for higher profits by the merchant. This is one of the quickest ways to earn money quickly in the game if you don't have the Stranger Sins expansion.

To make the flavor enhancer, you will need tier-II alchemy workbench. The flavor enhancer can be made by combining ash, toxic solution, and life extract.

7 Energy Potion

The energy potion is another must that you should learn to craft as quickly as possible. In Graveyard Keeper, you do have an energy meter than can decrease rather quickly. To combat this, you can either eat a ton of food or simply drink an energy potion to bring your stamina bar back up. The potion is simple to memorize as it only has one recipe that requires an acceleration powder and acceleration solution.

Energy potions can be used to instantly gain back 50 stamina points allowing players to avoid having to rest for the day.

6 Gold Elixir

The gold elixir will take a while to acquire, as it is a higher tier item. The gold elixir is the main component in making the golden injection at the church workbench. The golden injection is an important item that can be used on a corpse in order to take away two red skulls and add two white ones. This can quickly make your graveyard's quality go up by providing you with a higher chance of making sinless corpses.

The gold elixir is a bit expensive to brew and will require the tier II alchemy workbench. To create the gold elixir, you will need to combine gold powder, toxic solution, and chaos extract or gold powder, order solution, and health extract.

5 Freshener

Freshener is another easy alchemy recipe that can really help you out throughout the game. It is an important component to making incense at the church workbench. Incense can be used to raise your church's rating so that you can have a more successful service. This can end in you having more church patrons that leave a larger sum of money after your sermon is finished. Incense can increase the overall church rating by 2 when used.

Freshener is another straightforward formula that can only be made from two ingredients oil and order solution.

4 Protection Potion

If you're still battling your way through the dungeon, then you should quickly learn how to make a protection potion. The potion can be created at the alchemy II workbench when you combine order powder, slowing solution, and slowing extract. If your planning to go into the dungeon, then you should create two to three protection potions at once to help keep you safe.

When used, the potion's effect will stay active for five minutes and greatly reduce the amount of damage you can take from enemy attacks.

3 Digestion Potion

The digestion potion is another essential recipe for dungeon-crawling that isn't all that difficult to produce. This recipe is best for gamers who are able to cook a lot of dishes or who have a ton of vegetables in their inventories. This potion can last for five minutes at a time and allow players to eat food for double the stamina points that they would normally receive from the item.

To create the digestion potion, you will need a tier II alchemy workbench and should combine health powder, toxic solution, and acceleration extract.

2 White Paint

Just like black paint, white pain can be made at the begging of the game after you build the first alchemy workbench. White paint is especially important for the production of candles, which can help raise your church rating during sermons. The item can also help you to make tons of paper, which can then be used to create flyers and books that are both used in quests later in the game.

To make white paint, you can choose from three different recipes white powder and oil, electric power and water, or alcohol and slowing solution.

1 Zombie Juice

Zombie juice won't become available until you buy the Breaking Bad DLC. Zombie juice is an item that you can make zombie servants with when you take it to the resurrection table. The zombies can then be used to smaller tasks like cutting down trees for your graveyard. Luckily, as soon as you can get back to the area with the dungeon, you can unlock the zombie juice recipe.

To make zombie juice, you simply need to have the first alchemy workbench and combine health powder with blood harvested from a human corpse.
