Compression Furnace

Operation

  • Holds up to 500 ore
  • Holds up to 20 Charcoal
  • Burns 1cc per minute for a maximum of 20 minutes

Current "fire and forget" recipes are (They take 20 minutes):

  • 117 ore, 20cc yields 4 metal,
  • 250 ore, 20cc yields 8 metal, and
  • 484 ore, 20cc yields 15 metal.

Tested Ore/CC Ratios

See the Furnaces page for more yield data.

Ore CC metal ore/metal cc/metal
500 20 15 33.3 1.33
500 19 15 33.3 1.27
490 20 15 32.67 1.33
484 20 15 32.27 1.33
484 19 14 34.57 1.36
483 20 14 34.5 1.43
480 20 14 34.29 1.43
450 20 14 32.14 1.43
400 20 12 33.33 1.67
317 20 10 31.7 2
300 20 9 33.33 2.22
250 20 8 31.25 2.5
200 5 2 100 2.5
184 20 6 30.67 3.33
125 20 4 31.25 5.0
121 20 4 30.25 5.0
117 20 4 29.25 5.0
50 5 1 50 5.0

(For ore/metal and cc/metal ratios, lower is better)

125/20 take 2 less ore per metal than 500/19, but takes 4x CC and time.

Sprocket did some tests and noticed the base is 50, but can be rounded so
17/50/84/117/150/184 should all give the best results


Stoking the fire does not change the results, i.e. adding 10 cc now and 10 cc in 9 minutes is the same as adding 20 before firing.
