concrete-mixer

by kestalkayden

Concrete Mixer is a single-block machine that turns sand, gravel, dye and water into colored concrete blocks, working like a furnace.

What it does

One machine replaces the vanilla crafting step for colored concrete. Four sand, four gravel and one dye are placed in the three input slots, together with 1000 mB of water, and the block produces four concrete blocks in 12 seconds. A concrete powder plus 250 mB of water yields one concrete block in 3 seconds, which matches the vanilla powder-and-water reaction. The recipe is a raw recipe, so the mixer copies the vanilla concrete crafting logic inside one machine rather than adding new materials.

The mixer is powered like a furnace and needs a power setup, plus materials and water fed into it. A status display shows whether it is idle, lacking water, full or mismatching a color, and a redstone-disabled state lets players see what the mixer is doing at any time. Water can be stored in a 10-bucket tank holding 10,000 mB, filled with vanilla buckets, and the tank works with fluid pipes that use standard fluid capabilities, such as Pipez, Create and Mekanism. Jade shows the contents of a tank when hovered.

The mod requires Fabric API on Fabric. It is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric and NeoForge across the 26.1 – 26.3 range, with five release versions and snapshot builds available. The mixer is crafted from eight iron ingots around a cauldron and a crafting table.

Key features

  1. Single-block concrete factory

    One machine handles the whole process, from sand, gravel and dye to finished colored concrete.

  2. Furnace-style operation

    The mixer runs on power and takes its inputs through three slots, similar to a furnace.

  3. Water storage tank

    A 10,000 mB tank fills from vanilla buckets and works with fluid pipes and other fluid-handling mods.

  4. Status display

    A GUI shows idle, missing water, full output and color mismatch, and a redstone-disabled state is available.
