Smelting Terracotta in Blast Furnaces

By default, in vanilla Minecraft, blast furnaces can only smelt different types of ores, allowing players to speed up the process by twice! This is a very appealing feature, but when it comes to other blocks, players have to rely on regular furnaces, making smelting take several minutes again. Especially when dealing with large amounts, like multiple shulker boxes full of stacks or even more materials. Here comes a helpful mod by a developer who created an entire series of addons to expand the functionality of blast furnaces.

The Smelt Clay & Terracotta in Blast Furnaces mod adds the ability to smelt various types of terracotta in the blast furnace. You can throw in stacks of blocks and process them into their smelted variants. The entire process will be twice as fast as in a regular furnace, motivating players to craft blast furnaces and smelt blocks efficiently. The mod supports smelting both regular and glazed terracotta, but that’s not all! You can also smelt clay, clay blocks, and all related materials. This is a great way to speed up smelting early in survival, as clay is quite easy to find in the vanilla world.

How often do you use blast furnaces in Minecraft? Usually, players resort to them only when they have a lot of ore blocks, such as iron or copper, because smelting large volumes in regular furnaces takes a long time. And when there is an option to do it twice as fast, why not take advantage? However, Mojang severely limits blast furnace capabilities, so modders try to expand them in various ways. The mod we’re reviewing is one among dozens of similar addons for different materials.

With Smelt Clay & Terracotta in Blast Furnaces, players can quickly smelt any type of terracotta and clay. You save time and get extra functionality for an item previously rarely used. Now blast furnaces can be placed more often to smelt terracotta and obtain new materials in the game world. Many players gather clay early in survival since bricks are popular later, especially on servers. Bricks can be crafted into brick blocks, which are excellent for modern builds. Now you can smelt blocks faster without extra effort mining resources.

As mentioned earlier, the mod developer has created a whole series of addons allowing smelting various materials in blast furnaces, because the vanilla functionality is too limited. Therefore, we recommend installing several mods from the series, for example: Smelting Sand in a Blast Furnace (smelts sand), Blasting Raw Metal Blocks (smelts raw metals like gold, iron). And this is not the complete list of available extensions. To fully expand smelting options, install all mods from this series for maximum functionality!

The Smelt Clay & Terracotta in Blast Furnaces mod lets you quickly process terracotta and clay into many decorative and building blocks, as well as bricks for additional Minecraft items. All you need to do is install the mod! The rest is automatic: place the blast furnace, insert blocks or ore, and the process will be twice as fast. With additional enchantment mods installed, you can boost smelting speed even more, but that’s a story for another time!

The mod developer also added a separate config file where you can tweak certain parameters, but note that changing these requires a full launcher restart. This creator always tries to include customization options so every player can adjust the mod to their liking. It works for singleplayer and multiplayer servers alike. Keep in mind, though, that most blocks still have to be smelted in regular furnaces, so you’ll still need to craft and place those to get some building blocks or valuable materials.
