About
A multi-block structure used for firing clay pottery. It can fire 32 items at a time, compared to 4 items in the Pit Kiln. It also does not use Straw and uses less wood per item than the Pit Kiln.
Obtaining
The Kiln is built with at least 48 solid blocks, at least one Chimney block, three Log Piles and one Firepit.
The solid blocks can be raw or polished stone, sand, gravel, dirt, cobblestone, bricks, or mudbricks. Glass Blocks, Trapdoors, Wooden Doors, and Stone Walls will not work.
Construction
First layer:
- Place three log piles in a row. The first should be full (16 logs), the second and third should only have 1 log.
- Place 3 solid blocks along both sides of the log piles, and a solid block at the end against the full log pile.
Second layer:
- Place a 3x3 floor of solid blocks with 1 air block in the middle, directly over the full log pile
- Place a solid block over the uncovered 1-log log pile
Third Layer:
- Place walls of 3 solid blocks surrounding the floor on all four sides
Fourth layer:
- Repeat Layer 3
Fifth layer:
- Place a 3x3 ceiling of solid blocks with 1 chimney block in the middle, directly over the full log pile
Optional: Additional Chimney blocks can be placed above the one in the middle of the ceiling. These will not affect the Kiln, but may make it easier to see the fire particles when the Kiln is firing.
Use
Clay pottery items can be placed on the 8 tiles inside the firing chamber for a total of up to 32 clay items. Once the items are inside and the Kiln is sealed, light the Kiln by building a firepit in front of the exposed log pile. The log piles will catch fire and fire particles will show above the Chimney block. After 18 in-game hours the fire particles will stop and the log piles will be consumed. Break open the Kiln to collect your ceramic items. When relighting the Kiln, new log piles must be placed. The Firepit must be broken and a new one made to light the Kiln.
Trivia
Plastered Planks, Melon, Pumpkin, and Snow Blocks can also be used for the structural parts of the Kiln.
