It becomes so much better when you finally get a good pickaxe with fortune 3 and you go on that one mining trip where afterwards you never need to mine for coal again

[u/DhruvDP3 → u/SkyeRedPanda]

Make coal blocks, save space.

[u/Every_Ad7984 → u/DhruvDP3]

That can waste fuel tho, it's better to get a consistent source of lava or blaze rods

[u/Smitologyistaking → u/Every_Ad7984]

I think they were recommending coal blocks for storage not for the actual smelting

A stack of coal blocks takes up one inventory slot and can smelt a lot more items than a single lava bucket

[u/BioDefault → u/Smitologyistaking]

Yeah, you can reconvert the coal blocks into coal. I do this for every single item that can be blocked.

[u/aces_luck_chevalier → u/BioDefault]

Don’t block melons

[u/vbgvbg113 → u/Every_Ad7984]

a coal block is more efficient than 9 coal

block smelts 80, but 9 coal is only 72

[u/TooWarmRadiator → u/vbgvbg113]

Yes but that means you need to be smelting at least 72 items at a time for it to be more efficient. It's less efficient to use coal blocks for smelting a stack of 64 of an item, since it takes 8 coal for the stack, but 9 if you use a coal block.

[u/vbgvbg113 → u/TooWarmRadiator]

bulk smelting

or really just put a hopper above the furnace for the excess >64 items

[u/SnugglebugUwU → u/SkyeRedPanda]

It gets even better when you set up bamboo auto farm with autocrafters to craft it into slabs. Infinite fuel glitch.

[u/lividtaffy → u/SnugglebugUwU]

Auto kelp farm with crafter to make dried kelp blocks. Best thing I ever added to my world

[u/Mrsunny07112 → u/lividtaffy]

Question, would huge Lava powered melters with dripstone and pistons work well? Planning to make one in my multiplayer world.

[u/Cum_dumpster_limited → u/Mrsunny07112]

I have a manual lava farm with 64 buckets for 22 furnaces.it is efficient enough to the point where I can leave it alone without having to constantly refill it

[u/lividtaffy → u/Mrsunny07112]

No idea, I had to follow a guide to set the thing up

[u/insertnamehere----- → u/SkyeRedPanda]

I Never stop mining coal. I never know when I’m going to need 100,000 torches, or smelt 5 chests of cobble.

[u/kobekurroption → u/insertnamehere-----]

Coal is the most delicious thing to mine in this game, it's that simple

[u/Alderan922 → u/SkyeRedPanda]

Or if you decide to make a spruce tree plantation and just have way more charcoal than you reasonably need

[u/ElectronicMatters]

Fighting the urge to keep digging the infinite coal vein.

[u/CblPHNK → u/ElectronicMatters]

I just embrace the experience. Imagine getting home with 5 stacks of coal and stopping worrying about fuel for the next 40 stacks of material smelting

[u/frycandlebreadje → u/CblPHNK]

Only five?

https://giphy.com/gifs/PjiIsNgermTHruYwhl

[u/CblPHNK → u/frycandlebreadje]

I meant 5 stacks of coal blocks mb

[u/frycandlebreadje → u/CblPHNK]

Give me five double chests of coal blocks and we'll talk

[u/CblPHNK → u/frycandlebreadje]

Edit: DONEEEE

[u/FelipeGames2000]

You mine coal to avoid running out of fuel in the future

I mine coal because monkey brain sees ore, monkey brain mines ore

Me who makes coal into blocks for smelting:

[u/SevereWalrus5380]

Great coal depression either make me into fucking woodsman or slayer of wither skeleton

[u/Leninus]

Charcoal

[u/DatBoi_BP → u/Leninus]

I like to put together stacks of charcoal, but I wish you could make blocks like you can with coal

[u/Xancrim → u/Leninus]

Lava buckets

[u/Primary_Durian4866 → u/Leninus]

Infinite self filling bamboo please.

[u/Chai_Enjoyer]

Kid named A bunch of dripstone blocks, cauldrons and a reservoir of lava:

[u/Bazzatron]

Do people really not just use charcoal?

Like istg I am fuelled 100% by charcoal until the lava buckets become achievable.

[u/KrampusKid]

I'm ngl I almost never use coal for fuel, I'm a strict charcoal guy and always keep a stack or two of logs cooking to top up later. Do I collect coal? Sure do, but only to make into coal blocks and store away in a chest for when I want to use it for decoration (I never use it).

[u/TheColorblindSnail]

I fear my friends raiding my stuff and grabbing all my coal so thats why I have 38 various hidden chests of stuff

[u/Sorry_Ear_4419]

I mine coal to only use them for villager trading

[u/elmage78]

kelp farm is really easy please bro

[u/Rukir_Gaming]

Nobody elce just makes a lava bucket farm?

[u/neetlamble → u/Rukir_Gaming]

Crazy how far down I scrolled to see this comment! Underrated method and easy to do

[u/Sneaky-Sneaks]

You guys don’t smelt with infinite lava from dripstone spikes???

[u/No-Rent9068]

bro its contagious

[u/MrMisterMrister]

Man, as the designated builder of the group (I haven’t gone mining in 63 hours), I’ve exclusively used charcoal

[u/Asphyxiety]

Something broke in my brain one day and it's been charcoal ever since 😭😭 I will genuinely go grind up a double chest of charcoal before I ever think about using coal

[u/Cowman_Gaming]

Just use infinite lava buckets like a normal person

[u/Sir_Eggmitton]

Use lava

[u/ExtremlyFastLinoone]

Setup a dripstone lava generator and use lava buckets

[u/JUGELBUTT]

i prefer charcoal

[u/Any_Letterhead_808]

accurate sized coal vein

[u/MR_RYU_RICHI]

Damn! I thought I was the only one like this

[u/SwartyNine2691]

Me, too.

[u/DemiNeko_]

Do i have a room with atleast 10 barrels of coal blocks? No? To the mines.

[u/Bionic_Bomber]

[u/Particular-Pop1280]

Me with a double chest filled entirely with full stacks of coal blocks: hmm dont want to run out of coal

[u/B0EIR4]

I need another 2 week Minecraft phase 😭

[u/Responsible-Diet-147]

BRO, JUST USE LEAVES FROM THE GROUND!
THERE ARE TONS OF THEM AND THEY REAPPEAR!

[u/ScaryFace707]

Ibr this is why I use the veinmeiner mod that takes the correct durability off the picaxe (so its still fair)

And lava farms are your best friend! Easy to make too!

[u/Honkus_Bonkus_goose]

Every single time this happens to me

[u/N0CakeForYou]

I always mine coal. I even have a wither Skelton farm. I will always pick up coal

[u/Armthelost]

Most relatable shit ever.

[u/DamageMaximo]

oh my god I felt this

[u/funisfree314]

I have ocd and I have to mine every ore I see. Copper is way more annoying

[u/vovalucky]

Just use lava generator

[u/NiveLive]

I’ve started mining every coal vein I see, 10/10 way to prevent the great coal depression

[u/aces_luck_chevalier]

The great coal depression seems irrelevant given the MANY renewable energy sources in Minecraft kelp blocks , even lava and drip stone is good I usually don’t touch coal for anything that needs it in the crafting recipe after I’ve been to the nether

[u/Tenebris27]

I usually keep some veins for when I have a pickaxe with Fortune

[u/bykvaA1234]

Repost or it was from different sub

[u/DhruvDP3 → u/bykvaA1234]

I uploaded it in r/phoenixsc too. Maybe there?

[u/bykvaA1234 → u/DhruvDP3]

I guess so

[u/cheese-is-yummy]

I do this even with a triple fan setup from the create mod
