- Personally, I didn't bother with all that faffing about. I turn on the collider and use every penny I have on buying KEMs, then selling them again 4 hours later. It is ridiculously time consuming, especially if you are buying about $1m worth at a time. I have a lot of spare.land. So, I only do it for a day or so then when the money has been recouped I do it again. My muptiplier is about 900 or so but it was only 117% when I started KEM farming. So worth his while.starting..Some.people limit themselves to buying a certain number of KEMs each day, but I don't. As far as I see.it, you are only limited by the amount of spare land you have, the amount of igc and the time you have to devote yourself to the grind. (I suppose though, if you only buy a certain number it is less of a grind but each to their own.) Anyway my point is there is no hard and fast rule on how you farm, experiment and see what works for you. Any donuts you spend on switching on your collider while.quickly be recouped.

You can’t.
With the Level 52 update on May 6, 2015, the Main Kwik-E-Mart (first one) can't be sold anymore.

I must have sold mine before that point in time then. Because I remember doing it by accident and freaking out until I'd figured out what I did. :s- I didn't write anything incorrect. When farming I use every penny I have. It doesn't take long to get the money back up, usually only a few days and as I have no other use for it I don't consider myself bankrupt. I'm in Scotland and like the rest of the world am looking on in horror at what is happening in the USA. Keep safe, and I'm sure we can agree you're gorgeous.
- frosted1414Seasoned NewcomerKEM farming is a way to convert money to donuts. Building KEMS gets you XP which gets you Level-ups which gets you donut(s).
If you tell us your level and bonus % maybe we can help better. Basically turn on XP collider, build some KEMS, sell them, do it again.

I'm level 102, and my conformometer says my bonus is 123.95%.
I've never used the XP collider before because I didn't want to spend the donuts - Even with a 123.95% bonus it is still going to be worth your while. Save up your IGC before you start, then pick a day when you can log in every 4 hours, turn on your collider (even just for 24 hours so you can see what it does), buy as many KEMs as you can, wait, harvest them all for their payout, sell them, do it again. It will astonish you how many donuts you get. Obviously the higher your bonus the more you get and the more IGC you invest the higher the return. Go for it.

How many KEMs should I put down for my first time???"billyjean07;c-2135252" wrote:

I do 35 every 4 hours. With my 944.10% multiplier that gets me about 48 donuts a day. HOWEVER...
If you want to get serious about it you need some preparation. You need a steady income base so that your cash never goes down so that as you buy KEMs and second and third chances so that you get 3 donuts every time your cash still goes UP. So you generally need a Color House Farm (or 2 or 3 or...). I have small Blue and Orange house farms (24 each), a medium size Purple farm (51), and a huge White farm (147). I also have a large number of other duplicate buildings that I crafted in events, like Spooky Cabins and Zenith City buildings. And Lard Lad Donut shops. Lots of those. No, I didn't pay retail for them either - I got them cheap. How you ask?
Well this is the secret to KEM farming: every time you have 31 donuts you buy a Mr. Burns Mystery Box. That's 25 donuts you're saving to recharge the Collider, and 6 for the Mystery Box. The Burns Mystery Boxes repeat, paying out News Vans (2%+), Itchy&Scratchy Billboards (1%+), Lard Lads, donuts... and some junk that will actually help with your Conform-O-Meter if it isn't maxed out. If it IS maxed out you can sell the other stuff for a little cash, or keep it for decorating.
How do you afford a House Farm? One. Building. At. A. Time. (Oh-my-God-am-I-ever-going-to-have-enough-of-these-it's-been-weeks-it's-driving-me-crazy!) It takes a while. You have to be patient.
Need some land to put those buildings on? Got some free time? Springfield Heights. It's annoying, but it's a bunch of "free" land you can do with as you please. At one point I had more land in the Heights than in lower Springfield.
Good luck and happy tapping!- frosted1414Seasoned Newcomer

If you can afford 24 KEMS each cycle then start there. The first 24 are the cheapest. Adjust the number up or down depending on your money. MAKE SURE you sell all other KEMS in your town be for you start. Your first KEM should cost 220 money.
You will level-up and get a donut for each 23 KEMS you build:
