Enshrouded Coconut Milk: How to Get It

To get coconut milk in Enshrouded, you need to find a coconut, break it open, and then cook the coconut flesh in a drying rack or a campfire. The process is straightforward once you know where to look and what tools you need. This guide covers the exact steps, the best locations, and answers to common questions about this valuable crafting ingredient.

Formula

The calculator above works out how much coconut milk you will get from a given number of coconuts and how long the process takes. The formula is simple:

• Coconut Milk Yield = Number of Coconuts × 1 (each coconut gives exactly 1 coconut milk)
• Total Drying Time = (Number of Coconuts × 20 minutes) ÷ Number of Drying Racks

Variables:

• Number of Coconuts – how many coconuts you have collected.
• Drying Racks Used – how many drying racks you are using at the same time.
• Coconut Milk Yield – the total number of coconut milk you will receive.
• Total Drying Time – the real-world time (in minutes) you must wait for all the milk to be produced.

Worked Example

Using the default values from the calculator (3 coconuts, 1 drying rack):

1. You have 3 coconuts.
2. Each coconut produces 1 coconut milk, so 3 × 1 = 3 coconut milk.
3. Each coconut takes 20 minutes to dry, so 3 × 20 = 60 minutes total.
4. With 1 drying rack, the total time is 60 ÷ 1 = 60 minutes (1 hour).

So with 3 coconuts and a single drying rack, you will get 3 coconut milk after 1 hour.

What Is Coconut Milk Used For?

Coconut milk is a cooking ingredient in Enshrouded. It is used in several recipes, most notably for making Sweet Tea and other dishes that require a creamy base. It is also an ingredient in some potions and can be eaten raw to restore a small amount of health and water. Because it is not a common drop, players often stockpile it for mid-game cooking.

Where to Find Coconuts

Coconuts are found on palm trees in the Kindlewastes desert biome. This is the large desert area in the eastern part of the map. Look for clusters of palm trees near oases and along the edges of the desert. The coconuts appear as small brown spheres hanging from the trees. You can harvest them by hitting the tree with any tool or weapon, or by using your bare hands. Each tree typically drops 1–3 coconuts.

If you are having trouble finding palm trees, explore the southern part of the Kindlewastes, especially near the Pillars of Creation and the Nomad Highlands border. The trees are more common in areas with water.

Step-by-Step: How to Make Coconut Milk

1. Collect coconuts from palm trees in the Kindlewastes.
2. Build a drying rack (requires 8 wood logs and 2 string) or a campfire (requires 3 wood logs and 1 flint).
3. Open your crafting menu and place the coconuts in the drying rack or campfire.
4. Wait for the drying process to finish – it takes 20 minutes per coconut.
5. Collect the coconut milk from the rack or fire.

Note: You can speed up the process by building multiple drying racks and dividing the coconuts among them.

Common Mistakes and Misconceptions

A frequent mistake is trying to use a grinding stone or mortar to process coconuts – that does not work. Coconuts must be dried, not ground. Another misconception is that you can get coconut milk directly from the tree – you cannot; you must process the fruit. Also, be aware that coconuts are a limited resource in a given area; they do not respawn quickly, so if you clear an area, you may need to travel to another part of the desert to find more.

How to Speed Up Production

If you need a large amount of coconut milk, the best strategy is to build several drying racks. Each rack can hold one coconut at a time, so having 4–5 racks will cut your wait time significantly. You can also place the racks near a fast-travel point so you can leave and do other tasks while the milk dries. Remember that the drying process continues even when you are away from the area, as long as the game is running.

Alternatives to Coconut Milk

If you cannot find coconuts, or you run out, there are substitutes for some recipes. For cooking, you can use milk from a farm animal (if you have a farm) or nut milk from certain plants, though these are not always direct substitutes. For potions, there is no substitute – you will need coconut milk specifically. So it is worth making a trip to the Kindlewastes to stock up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you get coconut milk from any tree?

No, only from palm trees in the Kindlewastes desert. Other trees drop different resources, like wood or berries.

Do coconuts respawn?

Yes, but slowly. It takes about 30-40 minutes of real time for a palm tree to regrow its coconuts. If you clear an area, you can come back later to find more.

Can you use a campfire instead of a drying rack?

Yes, a campfire works exactly the same as a drying rack for coconuts. The only difference is the crafting recipe for the fire itself.

How long does one coconut take to dry?

Exactly 20 minutes. This is the same whether you use a drying rack or a campfire.

What is the best way to carry many coconuts?

You can carry up to 50 coconuts in a single inventory slot. They are not heavy, so you can collect as many as you can carry before returning to base.

Is coconut milk used in any quests?

Yes, some side quests in the Kindlewastes require you to bring coconut milk to an NPC. It is a good idea to keep a few in storage for such requests.
