Fermenting vats are used in brewing to prepare the various types of ales and cider as part of the Cooking skill. There are four fermenting vats in Gielinor. One is located in eastern Keldagrim, on the 1^st floor of the Laughing Miner Pub. The other vats are located in Port Phasmatys underneath the The Green Ghost pub, in the Moonrise Brewery and Winery on Aldarin island in Varlamore, and in the Burgh de Rott Myreque Hideout.

To use the vats, brewing ingredients must be put into them, followed by waiting until it is done. On average this takes 26 hours, then players must drain the vat with the valve into the nearby barrel and then collect it with either 8 beer glasses or 2 calquat kegs.
