On behalf of @Whale and I:
Currently the grape juice vat is strictly a qol upgrade for simplifying grape juice usage. Being able to use breakfast boosts with it would make it more worth it since with the high price tag of 500g, some people don't buy it strictly because it isn't useful enough. Obviously there would need to be restrictions in place to make it not straight up overpowered, but being able to feed in some number of breakfast boosts (with a maximum) to the vat once a day and receive some deemed equivalent amount of crops in return, perhaps 1-2 BB per 1000 crops, would make it not only way more worth the price tag, but also far more useful in click reduction (and thus server strain) on a game action that is both server intensive and unpleasant due to nonstop, timed, repeated clicks.
