How to Extract Honey and Wax with the Centrifuge
guide
Assembling the High-Speed Rotary Centrifuge
Extracting valuable mineral ores, pure liquid honey, and beeswax from harvested honeycombs demands mechanical separation.
- Combining iron plates, redstone components, and glass on a crafting table manufactures the mechanical
Centrifuge. - Supplying rotational kinetic force or electrical power spins the internal drum at thousands of revolutions per minute.
- Centrifugal separation cleanly splits dense wax solids from viscous honey fluids without damaging rare mineral grains.
- Connecting fluid pipes to the base of the centrifuge extracts pure liquid into a standard
Honey Bucket. - Solid beeswax flakes consolidate into clean craftable slabs of pure multi-purpose
Wax. - Centrifuging raw agricultural honeycombs provides essential waxes for waterproofing, candle crafting, and machine maintenance.
- Positioning centrifuges adjacent to advanced hives eliminates transport delays and optimizes total apiary throughput.
Extracting Pure Ores from Specialized Honeycombs
Breeding specialized resource bees produces exotic honeycombs packed with valuable subterranean mineral concentrations.
- Feeding standard wild honeycombs through the centrifuge yields clean honey alongside standard
Honeycomb pieces. - Centrifuging exotic draconic combs separates rare ender essences, yielding valuable pieces of
Draconic Chunk. - Further pulverizing draconic chunks through secondary mechanical grinders produces ultra-fine
Draconic Dust. - Resource bees can produce iron, gold, redstone, diamond, and netherite combs, yielding pure metal ingots continuously.
- An automated apiary centrifuge room replaces hazardous mining expeditions with passive, renewable surface metal harvesting.
- Stockpiling centrifuged mineral chunks guarantees an infinite supply of raw metallurgical components for technological factories.
- Connecting overflow void pipes for excess beeswax ensures centrifuges never stall during long-running automated processing.
Formulating Sweet Honey Treats for Bee Growth
Accelerating colony reproduction and boosting bee happiness requires formulating nutrient-dense apicultural feeds.
- Mixing centrifuged honey with sweet berries and sugar crystals creates the nourishing
Honey Treat. - Feeding honey treats to worker bees calms agitated swarms and accelerates child growth into mature producing workers.
- Crafting automated treat dispensers beside hive entrances keeps worker bees healthy and operating at peak productivity.
- Store surplus honey buckets in fluid silo tanks to ensure your treat confectionery workshop never runs out of ingredients.
- Mastering centrifuge processing and treat formulation transforms simple beekeeping into a massive resource powerhouse.
- Distributing honey treats across breeding pens encourages rapid colony expansion and unlocks elite bee lineages.
