#### Essence of Yellow Crumb: Bug or just fact?

I am learning Potionmaking II - Fast! Fast! I imbibed an Essence of Yellow Crumb Flower and my speed of learning did not appear to change at all. I suspect that if you are already learning as fast as you can, then the Yellow Crumb essence has no effect. If this is not a bug, then it would be helpful to note so in the description so that Glitches do not waste this precious (and very expensive) commodity.

- From my understand is that you can cut half of time to learn. For example, with full speed learning, cut from six hours to three hours. That's it, can't push speed learning anymore. You have to wait for three hours to complete before learning next new skill.
  Also, you can't stack it all up.

- Every time I use the Essence of Yellow Crumb it does nothing. It doesn't speed anything up during, and it doesn't change the time after it is done. I submitted a bug about this but it's still not in the list of known bugs. Kind of a pointless thing to have if it doesn't work. I've wasted a lot of yellow flowers and essence because of this.

- that must be a client side bug, it works just fine, also, you wouldn't notice the time loss if you didn't know what you had left in the first place.

- I always check the time before and after, and the only time change is the natural time that had passed.

- I just tested this out. I opened up the Familiar (Magic Rock) menu so I could see my time remaining on Gardening V. Upon imbibing Essence of Yellow Crumb, I got the Crumbly Thoughts buff and my time remaining *immediately* reduced by 10 minutes.
  That the Crumbly Thoughts buff is a timer count-down is perhaps a bit misleading. Perhaps one does learn twice as fast during it, but it only seems to be expressed in any visible-to-the-user manner in terms of reducing one's learning time by 10 minutes upon imbibing (and *not* upon the buff expiring).
  I have also seen the "imbibe" verb grayed out (non-functional) when I was already "learning as fast as you can!".
