Fun. It made me wonder if there was a true ending, but I didn't try a second play through for zero dilution. I almost went for a low red jar before I realized it wasn't glowing, but receiving glow from a nearby jar.
Brew purity does correlate to better endings, of which (ignoring falling in the cauldron too early) there are three. One from knocking a lot of wrong ingredients in, one for only some wrong ingredients, and the last for minimal or no wrong ingredients.
