For the more advanced formulas you should probably try Apples versus Oranges, and offer something for the demanded information.

For Steel, you cannot gain quality from your crucible or fuel, it can only retain its quality. So really, as long as your crucible's quality and fuel's quality match the quality of the wrought/coal being used, you'll retain full quality. Where you're really gaining/losing quality is in the finery forge, where there is a random variable attached.

The Goldbeater's skin should be (2*Calf Intestines quality + 3*Vinegar quality)/5

To my knowledge, there is no need to buy basic formulas. That information should always be freely available, if not available already on the wiki.

Good to know, thanks. Was wondering if the fuel used to light the crucibles matter.

I figured that, but what i was wondering does any skill value affect the outcome? since you cook it in a cauldron. I guess caudlronQ and waterQ affects it. Also it seems like sewing, dex and psy affects the quality of goldbeaters skins? you know anything more?

I'm not sure if any skills are softcapping it, sorry. My calf intestines are Waaayy too low for me to figure that out. It's possible your psyche is softcapping it?

Cauldron and water q do matter too for goldbeaters skin. I think cooking is softcapping it, but not sure.

Also not the finery forge has a random variable, but the smithing bloom to wrought process does.
