Embers Rekindled Power Generation and Ember Distribution Machines

guide

Power generation and ember distribution machines form the backbone of any Embers Rekindled setup, turning raw resources into usable ember and moving that ember where it is needed. The mod provides several distinct devices for these jobs, each with its own crafting recipe and role. This guide covers the Ember Bore, Wildfire Stirling, Ignem Reactor, Ember Funnel, Ember Siphon, and Ember Ejector.

Generating Ember

Three machines handle the production side of ember.

The Ember Bore is built from four Caminite Bricks, one Copper Ingot, one Mechanical Core, and three Iron Ingots in a shaped recipe. It serves as a starting point for pulling ember out of the ground.

The Wildfire Stirling requires four Dawnstone Plates, two copper storage blocks (tagged as `#forge:storage_blocks/copper`), two Ember Shards, and one Wildfire Core. This makes it a more involved build, relying on dawnstone and wildfire components alongside the copper blocks.

The Ignem Reactor is assembled from five Copper Ingots, one Wildfire Core, two Silver Plates, and Caminite Bricks. Like the Stirling, it depends on a Wildfire Core, but it swaps dawnstone for silver plates and leans heavily on copper.

Each of these three machines represents a different path to ember production, and the materials they demand reflect that: the Bore leans on iron and caminite, the Stirling on dawnstone, and the Reactor on silver and copper.

Moving Ember Around

Once ember is generated, it has to reach the machines that consume it. Three devices cover distribution.

The Ember Funnel is crafted from three Dawnstone Plates, two Copper Ingots, and one Ember Receptor. The presence of the Ember Receptor ties it directly to ember handling.

The Ember Siphon uses five Caminite Bricks, two Copper Ingots, and two Silver Plates. Its recipe is the most caminite-heavy of the distribution devices, suggesting a sturdy construction.

The Ember Ejector is the simplest of the three to build: one Dawnstone Plate, one Ember Emitter, and one Iron Ingot. The Ember Emitter component marks it as a device for pushing ember outward.

How the Pieces Fit Together

A typical ember setup separates generation from distribution. You build one or more of the generating machines — the Ember Bore, Wildfire Stirling, or Ignem Reactor — to produce ember. You then use the distribution devices — the Ember Funnel, Ember Siphon, and Ember Ejector — to route that ember to wherever it is consumed.

The crafting costs give a rough sense of progression. The Ember Ejector needs only three ingredients, making it the cheapest entry point into ember movement. The Ember Funnel and Ember Siphon sit in the middle, each requiring a handful of plates, ingots, or bricks. On the generation side, the Ember Bore is the most modest build, while the Wildfire Stirling and Ignem Reactor demand rarer components such as the Wildfire Core, Dawnstone Plates, and Silver Plates.

Materials to Gather

If you plan to build the full set, stock up on the shared ingredients:

Copper Ingots appear in the Ember Bore, Ignem Reactor, Ember Funnel, and Ember Siphon.
Caminite Bricks appear in the Ember Bore, Ignem Reactor, and Ember Siphon.
Dawnstone Plates appear in the Wildfire Stirling, Ember Funnel, and Ember Ejector.
Silver Plates appear in the Ignem Reactor and Ember Siphon.
Iron Ingots appear in the Ember Bore and Ember Ejector.
Wildfire Cores appear in the Wildfire Stirling and Ignem Reactor.

Copper is the most widely shared material across the generation and distribution machines, so it pays to keep a steady supply on hand. Caminite and dawnstone follow close behind, each feeding three of the six devices.

Building generation first and distribution second is the natural order, since ember movement devices are only useful once there is ember to move. From there, expand whichever production method matches the materials you can gather most easily.
