Alchemy Jug
This ceramic jug appears to be able to hold a gallon of liquid and weighs 12 pounds whether full or empty. Sloshing sounds can be heard from within the jug when it is shaken, even if the jug is empty.
You can use an action and name one liquid from the table below to cause the jug to produce the chosen liquid. Afterward, you can uncork the jug as an action and pour that liquid out, up to 2 gallons per minute. The maximum amount of liquid the jug can produce depends on the liquid you named.
Once the jug starts producing a liquid, it can't produce a different one, or more of one that has reached its maximum, until the next dawn.

Description
Typical alchemy jugs were made of ceramic. They had an apparent capacity of 1 gallon (3.8 liters) and always made a sloshing sound when shaken, as if they were always filled with liquid.Powers
The jug could produce the following substances: acid, ale, honey, mayonnaise, poison, oil, vinegar, fresh or salt water, wine, ammonia, aqua regia, beer, chlorine, and cyanide. The amount produced depended on the liquid chosen. Upon speaking the name of the substance, the user could uncork the jug to pour it, at a maximum rate of 2 gallons (7.6 liters) per minute. Once an alchemy jug produced its maximum amount of a given liquid, it could only produce more of it after the next dawn.
