Coconut meat

[MrRicklion]

Is there a faster way to get the meat out of a coconut?
30 mins per coconut seems so long (plus peeling 45min)
And when i make coconut oil it takes another 30 minutes just to make a little bit of coconut oil. I am totally fine if it takes so long. Just wanna be sure there is not a faster way.

I don't think so, no. There's no difference with utensils used nor does the chair and table offer a bonus, but there are a couple of pretty cool things that shorten the processing time either side:

give a husked coconut to a pet macaque and they'll peel it immediately for you at no time cost

make oil by adding coconut milk to the cooking pot while it's already cooking on the stove. So if you start by boiling a 25%-full pot (1 coconut meat's worth) it will take the usual 2hrs to turn to oil, but instead incrementally add the other 3 halves as you process them separately in a bowl and the cooking time won't increase, with the final portion added just before the 2hrs is up.

You'll have to try it out and get the timing down yourself because that's a mess of a paragraph, sorry! Basically you can batch cook 2 coconuts into a whole cooking pot's worth of oil in the time it takes to prep and cook half a coconut, if you can afford to babysit the process.

I think I know what you mean. I will try it out next time i make a batch of oil.

I was disappointed that my coconut milk production didn't speed up with the table. The wiki shows the milk blueprint is affected by the workplace bonus, but I'm not seeing how.

The jungle salad is the only food recipe that requires oil and can't use fat.
But other than that, I usually have plenty of fat.
