Frequently asked questions

How do I get started with Extra Sponges?

Craft a metal sponge by combining the vanilla sponge with the metal or material you want it made from, then use it like a normal sponge. Start with an

Iron Sponge since iron is cheap, and work up to Diamond, Emerald, or Netherite Sponges once you have the resources.

How do metal sponges work?

Each metal sponge absorbs water in a radius around it when placed or used, just like a vanilla sponge but with a larger capacity or area depending on the material. Once it has absorbed water it becomes the Wet variant of that sponge and must be dried before it can be used again.

How do I dry a wet metal sponge?

Place the Wet Sponge in a furnace, smoker, or blast furnace to dry it back into its dry form, or leave it in a hot dimension like the Nether. Once dried, it can absorb water again.

How do I make a

Lava Sponge?

The

Lava Sponge is crafted from a sponge combined with a lava-related material, and it absorbs lava instead of water. When it soaks up lava it turns into a

Molten Lava Sponge, which must be processed before it can be used again.
