Frequently asked questions
Do copper grates need to be waxed for bubble columns to work through them?
No, bubble columns pass through copper grates at any oxidation stage—unoxidized, partially oxidized, fully oxidized, or waxed. You can use whichever variant fits your build aesthetic.
Can I use copper grates with soul sand elevators in my existing water tube?
Yes, you can retrofit old elevators by placing a copper grate directly above the soul sand, then filling the column above as normal. The grate hides the soul sand while maintaining full elevator speed.
What happens if I place the copper grate too high above the soul sand?
The bubble column effect will stop before reaching the grate if there's a gap—the grate must be placed directly adjacent (one block above) the soul sand or magma block to work.
Do magma block downward traps work the same way as soul sand elevators?
Yes, magma blocks create downward whirlpool effects that pass through copper grates the same way soul sand bubbles travel upward, letting you hide magma floors in mob grinders.
