====Base flavor levels====
When cooking with one Berry (which is always the case when cooking alone in Generation IV), each Berry can be viewed as having a base strength for each Poffin flavor, which is then boosted by cooking faster than the maximum and decreased by spilling or burning the mixture. Since flavors that are already negative can only become more negative, they can be treated as 0, even though this is not performed until later in the algorithm.
Poffin levels can be improved by making the Poffin in a shorter time. The level of the cooked Poffin is equal to <math display="inline">\mathrm{round}(base \cdot \frac{60}{time} - errors)</math>, where <code>base</code> is the base level, <code>time</code> is the time taken, and <code>errors</code> is the total number of burns and spills. (If this level would be less than 0, it becomes 0 instead.)
For example, when with a single Berry, an [[Aguav Berry]] has a base bitterness of 14 (other flavors have a base strength of 0). This means completing in 60 seconds with 0 burns and spills will yield a level 14 Poffin: <math display="inline">14 \times 1 = 14</math>. If, however, the Poffin was created in 40 seconds, it would be <math display="inline">14 \times {60 \over 40} = 21</math>.
