Okay this is my biggest problem with the patch so far. It takes nearly 4 hours rl time to make the lye for 22.5 pieces of glass... yes you can be doing other stuff while you wait but you need to go back to that cauldron at least once to refill it maybe twice. That's a long time for such a small return. Frankly it sucks. Hugely. Please respect your player bases time and make the boiling to be at least the time it takes to boil off 20L water or less.
What's the boiling time on deer antlers? 2 hr real time IIRC. I know I have to refill a cauldron at least once.
Botting? No, not necessary unless you want to mass produce. An alt logged in at base (or someone already there farming, hanging out, cet) that can check a few cauldrons every half hour or so is all that's needed. I get the "shouldn't need more than one account logged in at once" argument, but Haven has been this way since I started playing it.
@jorb: does the process reset if it goes dry? I want to say "no" given other boiled items, but assumptions on this kind of stuff are the start of the "I quit" phase of players.
