The Blast Furnace can maintain the high temperatures needed for alloying metals, such as making Netherite or Solarium.

This page describes Voluminous Energy 0.5 (Alpha 2, for 1.21.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2). All numbers are the default values from the startup config and can be changed there.

Usage

Put the ingredients in the input slots and a hot fluid in the tank. Each recipe has a minimum temperature (shown in kelvin in the recipe table). The recipe only runs if the temperature of the fluid in the tank is at least that high, so a hot fluid such as Lava (1,300 K) is needed. Each operation uses 50 mB of that fluid ("Heat Source Consumption"). An upgrade in the upgrade slot shortens the processing time (see Machine upgrades).

Energy

	Default	Config setting
Power consumption	256 FE/t	`Power Consumption`
Energy storage	512,000 FE	`Maximum Power`
Maximum input/output	10,000 FE/t	`Maximum Transfer`

Inventory

The "default face" is the side of the machine that automation (hoppers, pipes) uses for the slot by default, relative to the machine's front. It can be changed in the machine's IO settings.

#	Slot	Default face	Notes
1	Bucket input (fill/empty tank)	Up
2	Bucket output	Down
3	InputSlot	Right
4	InputSlot	Left
5	Item output	Back
6	Upgrade	—	Speeds up processing (see Machine upgrades)

Tanks

Tank	Capacity	Restriction
Input	4,000 mB

Multiblock

The Blast Furnace is the controller of a multiblock. It only works when there is a solid 3 × 3 × 3 cube of Titanium Machine Casing (27 blocks) next to it, with the controller against the middle of the bottom layer of one side of the cube. Which side depends on the direction the controller faces. The structure is checked once a second.

Crafting

`#c:ingots/titanium`	`#c:ingots/titanium`	`#c:ingots/titanium`
Primitive Blast Furnace	Carbon Shielded Aluminum Machine Frame	Primitive Blast Furnace
`#c:plates/titanium`	`#c:microchips`	`#c:plates/titanium`

Crafting a Blast Furnace on its own in a crafting grid returns a fresh Blast Furnace, clearing its stored data.

Recipes

All 5 recipes that ship with the mod (datapacks can add more):

Inputs	Outputs	Minimum heat (K)	Time (ticks)
Netherite Scrap `#c:ingots/gold`	Netherite Ingot	900	200
Netherite Ingot Obsidian	Nighalite Ingot	900	200
`#c:ingots/eighzo` `#c:ingots/nighalite`	Solarium Ingot	900	200
`#c:ingots/iron` `#c:ingots/carbon`	Steel Ingot	900	200
`#c:ingots/tungsten` `#c:ingots/steel`	Tungsten Steel Ingot	900	200

History

Added in 1.16.5-0.2.0.0 (the 0.2 train).
