the idea behind the trommel is you're meant to have it running in the background anyway. it shouldn't be your main plan of action, its just a way to get the most out of trash resources[1]

1.7.6: 670, 671

Description A machine that separates dirt from other useful items.

The Trommel is a block added in 1.7.6. It is capable of recycling Dirt, Gravel, and similar "junk" blocks into more useful resources such as Clay, Quartz, and Olivine.

Obtaining

Breaking

  • it's crafted from 5 cobblestone, 1 mesh block and 3 oak logs.

Usage

To begin the sifting process, the Trommel must have fuel, similar to a furnace. The Trommel has four slots in its GUI, each capable of holding a stack. A piece of coal is capable of processing 30 blocks across all four slots; inserting multiple stacks does not increase fuel efficiency. Currently, the trommel is capable of processing these blocks:

  • Dirt
  • Gravel
  • Clay
  • Sand
  • Scorched Dirt
  • Rich Scorched Dirt
  • Soul Sand
