Schedule 1gives you several options for packaging your product. Bags and jars can move an impressive amount of product well enough. But if you’re looking to shove a baker’s dozen of your favorite items into a single inventory slot, you’ll have to learn how to pack them into bricks.
Making bricks isn’t an easy art to master, and if you don’t know how to use them effectively, you’ll spend a lot of time and resources on something that won’t make much money. Here’s how to create and use bricks inSchedule 1.

How to get a Brick Press in Schedule 1
Unlike bags and jars, only the Brick Press can make bricks. Like most heavy-grade manufacturing machines inSchedule 1, you can buy it from Oscar at the Warehouse for $800. You won’t be able to buy a Brick Press until you’ve reached Bagman V rank, so you’ll have to build up a solid rep first.
How to use the Brick Press in Schedule 1
Operating the Brick Press was awkwardbeforeSchedule 1‘s first major update went live. The minigames you play to work every non-automatic machine are finicky by design to encourage you to invest in upgraded, automatic versions. The Brick Press minigame was a few paces south of downright unplayable pre-update. If luck didn’t feel like throwing you a bone, you’d make a brick that wouldn’t go into your inventory and waste armfuls of product. Thanks to the update, this doesn’t seem to be an issue anymore.
To make bricks, bring the items you want to brick up to the Brick Press and press “E” to start the mini-game. Use your mouse to pick up the buckets with your product, pour them into the mold, and then bring down the big press to finish the brick. It’snot as dangerous as cooking some substances, but it takes almost as much finesse.
How to make the most out of bricks in Schedule 1
You can store up to forty units of product in a single brick, but most of your customers won’t want to accept that much from you if you attempt to deal with them face-to-face. The best way to get around this is toreserve your bricks for your dealers. Through some magic I can’t imagine, your dealers will break your brick into fair portions that will reach your customers. This means you don’t have to worry aboutbeing seen dealing by the copsand risk losing all the product on you.
Once you’ve mastered making bricks, you can move a large amount of product among your customers, giving you more time toexperiment with new mixer combinationsorlaunder the moneyyou’ll need to buy said mixers.
