Fluid, Item, and Ember Transport and Storage Infrastructure in Embers Rekindled
Fluid, item, and ember transport plus storage infrastructure in Embers Rekindled covers the blocks that move resources between machines and hold them for later use. The mod provides dedicated devices for each resource type, and several of them build on one another through crafting.
Moving Fluids
Fluid handling starts with the 
Fluid Extractor, a device made from two 
Redstone Dust, two 
Fluid Pipe, and one 
Caminite Plate in a shaped recipe. It serves as the pulling component for fluid systems.
To push fluid rather than pull it, you craft the 
Mechanical Pump. Its shaped recipe combines two Fluid Pipe, four 
Iron Plate, two 
Caminite Brick, and one Fluid Extractor. Because the Fluid Extractor is an ingredient, you must build at least one extractor before any pump can be made.
Moving Items
Item logistics use the 
Item Extractor, crafted in a shaped recipe from two Redstone Dust, two 
Item Pipe, and one Caminite Plate. It is the item-side counterpart to the fluid extractor and shares the same redstone and caminite requirements, differing only in the pipe type used.
Storing Fluids
Two blocks handle fluid storage. The smaller of the two is the 
Fluid Vessel, a shaped recipe of four Caminite Brick, two Iron Plate, and one 
Iron Ingot.
The larger option is the 
Reservoir, which is built from four 
Caminite Bricks, two Iron Ingot, and one Fluid Vessel. Since the Fluid Vessel appears in the recipe, a reservoir cannot be crafted until you have made at least one vessel first.
Storing Ember
Ember storage is handled by the 
Crystal Cell. Its shaped recipe requires two 
Ember Crystal, two 
Dawnstone Plate, two copper storage blocks from the `#forge:storage_blocks/copper` tag, and one 
Block of Dawnstone. The tag means any copper storage block that satisfies the forge tag will work in those two slots.
How the Recipes Fit Together
A clear progression runs through these recipes. Caminite appears in nearly every device: as Caminite Brick in the Fluid Vessel, Mechanical Pump, and Reservoir; and as Caminite Plate in both the Item Extractor and the Fluid Extractor. Iron shows up as Iron Plate in the Fluid Vessel and Mechanical Pump, and as Iron Ingot in the Fluid Vessel and Reservoir.
Redstone dust is the common trigger material for both extractors, while pipes determine what each extractor handles: Fluid Pipe for fluids, Item Pipe for items. The Fluid Extractor then feeds into the Mechanical Pump, making it a prerequisite for pump construction.
Ember storage stands apart from the rest. The Crystal Cell shares no ingredients with the fluid or item devices; it relies on Ember Crystal, Dawnstone Plate, Block of Dawnstone, and tagged copper storage blocks instead.
Planning Your Build Order
If you want a complete transport and storage setup, craft in dependency order. Make Caminite Plate and Caminite Brick first, since they gate most recipes. Then build the Fluid Vessel so the Reservoir becomes available. Craft the Fluid Extractor before the Mechanical Pump, because the pump consumes it. The Item Extractor can be made whenever you have Item Pipe, Redstone Dust, and Caminite Plate on hand. The Crystal Cell is independent and can be assembled separately once you have its ember and dawnstone components.
Each device fills a distinct role: extractors pull their resource, the pump pushes fluid, vessels and reservoirs hold fluid, and the crystal cell stores ember.
