Smelt Netherite Scrap In To A Netherite Ingot Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need gold to make Netherite Ingots with this mod?
No. This mod removes the gold requirement entirely—you can smelt Netherite Scrap directly into Netherite Ingots using only the scrap itself.
Can I use a regular furnace or do I need a blast furnace?
Both work. A regular furnace will smelt Netherite Scrap into Ingots, but a blast furnace will do it faster if you want to speed up the process.
How do I start smelting Netherite Scrap?
Place your Netherite Scrap in a furnace or blast furnace, add fuel, and smelt it like you would any other material—the output will be a Netherite Ingot.
Can I automate this with hoppers?
Yes. Set up hoppers to feed Netherite Scrap into a furnace or blast furnace and extract the Ingots from the output slot, just like any other smelting automation.
Does this mod work with other mods that add furnaces?
The mod works with vanilla furnaces and blast furnaces; compatibility with modded furnaces depends on whether they use standard Minecraft smelting recipes.
What's the difference between smelting in a furnace vs. a blast furnace?
A blast furnace smelts Netherite Scrap faster than a regular furnace, but both produce the same Netherite Ingot output.
Do I lose any Netherite Scrap in the conversion?
No—the smelting recipe converts your Netherite Scrap into Netherite Ingots with no waste or loss.
Can I still use the old gold-based recipe if I want?
This mod replaces the standard recipe, so the gold method is no longer available when the mod is installed.
Does this mod affect mining or finding Netherite Scrap?
No. The mod only changes how you process Netherite Scrap into Ingots—mining and obtaining scrap works the same as vanilla.
Will this mod slow down my game?
No—this is a lightweight mod that only adds a single recipe, so it has minimal impact on performance.
