Kiln

The kiln is a structure built out of bricks over stoked hibachis, used to fire pottery, separate end stone into brimstone and white cobble, burn wood into charcoal, and perform some of the functionality of the brick oven without requiring fuel. The structure consists of one block that will be occupied by the object to be fired enclosed on the bottom and at least 3 other sides by brick blocks. One block beneath the bottom brick block must be a lit hibachi stoked by a bellows. Having more than one hibachi speeds up the progress, in the same way as the cauldron. The kiln is necessary to obtain a crucible.

Three different valid configurations of the Kiln, being used to fire planters.

Applications

• Making Pottery (Crucibles, Planters, Vases, Urns and Moulds)
• Separating End Stone into Ender Slag and White Cobble
• Smelting Ores
• Burning Wood into Charcoal
• Baking Clay into Bricks and Nether Sludge into Nether Bricks
• Baking Bread Dough into Bread, Cookie Dough into Cookies, Oven Ready Pumpkin Pie into Pumpkin Pie, and Cake Batter into Cake.

Keep in Mind

• The kiln can be arranged in any fashion as long as object to be fired is adjacent to 4 brick blocks, and one of those brick blocks is below it.
• The bottom of the kiln must be two blocks above the hibachi, occupying the top block of the stoked fire.
• Bricks can be made by applying clay, nether sludge or slimeballs to loose bricks.
