Everginium production: one batch yields 18 ingots
The four stages form one batch. Incomplete assembly items must finish their cycles, unrefined cores need chemistry and refined cores go to the Crafting Core.
1. Mix binder
Use a heated Mechanical Mixer above a Basin:
| Input | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Coffee Beans | 1 |
| Rooibos Leaf | 1 |
| Yerba Mate Leaf | 1 |
| Water | 250 mB |
| Output: Everginium Binder | 4 |
Provide rotation and a proper heated Create setup. A Basin beside a normal furnace is not sufficient. Look up the binder under Create Mixing.
2. Assemble an Unrefined Core
Start with one Raw Everginium. Repeat four times:
- Deployer: apply one Sturdy Sheet.
- Deployer: apply one Everginium Binder.
- Mechanical Press: press the intermediate.
Total: one raw item, four sheets and four binder → one Unrefined Core without random scrap. The Incomplete Core is the circulating intermediate, not an extra ingredient to manufacture. Filter finished cores out while returning unfinished ones through all four cycles.
3. Refine with Mekanism
| Pressurized Reaction Chamber input | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Unrefined Everginium Core | 1 |
| Sulfuric Acid, chemical form | 500 |
| Water, fluid form | 1,000 mB |
| Output: Refined Everginium Core | 1 |
Base time is 600 ticks / 30 seconds at 20 TPS, before upgrades. Supply FE, item input, water at the fluid input and acid at the chemical input. Fluid acid and chemical acid are different inputs; this recipe requires the chemical.
A pre-polonium acid chain uses Sulfur Dust → Sulfur Dioxide in a Chemical Oxidizer; dioxide + Oxygen → Sulfur Trioxide in a Chemical Infuser; water → Water Vapor in a Rotary Condensentrator; then trioxide + vapor → Sulfuric Acid in a Chemical Infuser. Water electrolysis provides oxygen. Check upstream quantities in the viewer. This reaction needs neither polonium nor heavy water.
4. Finish with eight Pedestals
This is Combination Crafting, not a large-table recipe.
| Position | Ingredient | Count |
|---|---|---|
| Core | Refined Everginium Core | 1 |
| Separate Pedestals | Precision Mechanism | 2 |
| Separate Pedestals | Reinforced Alloy | 2 |
| Separate Pedestals | Elite Component | 2 |
| Separate Pedestals | Refined Obsidian Ingot | 2 |
| Output | Everginium Block | 2 |
All eight Pedestals must be at the Core's Y level and within three blocks. Put one ingredient on each. Their order around the Core is not a fixed grid pattern.
Supply 2,000,000 FE at 2,000 FE/t, taking 50 seconds at 20 TPS without interruptions. Earlier machines also need their own energy, rotation and heat. See Combination Crafting and automation.
Shopping list for one regular batch
This starts at direct ingredients; manufacturing sheets, alloys and mechanisms adds upstream costs.
| Material | Total for 2 blocks / 18 ingots |
|---|---|
| Raw Everginium | 1 |
| Coffee / Rooibos / Yerba Mate ingredient | 1 each |
| Sturdy Sheet | 4 |
| Water | 1,250 mB |
| Chemical Sulfuric Acid | 500 |
| Precision Mechanism | 2 |
| Reinforced Alloy | 2 |
| Elite Component | 2 |
| Refined Obsidian Ingot | 2 |
| Final Core energy | 2,000,000 FE |
The four binder are produced and consumed within the chain. A Forsaken core replaces production up to the Refined Core; the pedestal ingredients and final energy cost remain.
