Frequently Asked Questions
Do furnaces use more fuel at higher speeds?
Fuel consumption is based on items smelted, not time, so faster furnaces are simply more efficient with your time.
Which furnace should I prioritize?
Focus on the highest tier you can craft. Even a cobalt furnace (2x speed) significantly improves quality of life.
Can I combine this with Thorium Chests?
Absolutely! Both mods work together perfectly for a complete metal-tier progression experience.
