If you don't have a trash can, check if you have a "Small Waste Incinerator". Carrots and potatoes also give the same amount and is muuuch easier to farm. You can also skip some pipes and place them side by side, they auto-eject into each other.

[@carbonaradepapa1276]

trash can and small waste incinerator do not exist

[@martincarro9677]

[@arvilsdead]

The electric pump can actually infinitely get water from one source block! Also, if you’re playing a pack with Cooking For Blockheads, the kitchen sink is popular for infinite water that requires no energy :3 (Just have to set the mechanical pipes to extract from it)

[@SharkOSix]

You fucking god I never knew thanks because ima be the best person in the smp in under 5 hours lmao

[@fashnek]

The Cooking For Blockheads sink is basically a cheat and I will never use it.

[@taj1994]

Another potential infinite water alternative for anybody in 1.12 is the infinite water source from NuclearCraft (I think. It's been awhile since I played 1.12, but it's from one of the reactor mods). Not sure about other sources for newer versions other than the kitchen sink though

[@celinavarchausky5333]

This was so good!! Thank you for explaining it so well, too. Although I'm very very new to mekanism, this was easy to understand. Thank you!

[@TaijiArban]

Thank you! I was confused about how to dump the substrate so it really helps!

[@justaflea6552]

Nice video gotta new sub here keep it up!I love playing with the tech mods but only recently got into mek so this helped a lot

[@Team_flint]

Just getting in the modded minecraft this tutorial was amazing easy to understand and follow.

[@MrCryodrone]

Followed the whole video! this is great thank you!!!

[@donnella927]

Very nice look into a different way of starting up in Mekanism

[@laughingalex7563]

Even with pollution of the realms this is very useful. The gas burning generator on ethylene is actually, due to ethylenes energy density, surprisingly clean in terms of energy to carbon/sulphur ratio. Oddly in file shows ethylene as 0 sulpher but the gas gen itself produces miniscule amounts. I find it producing little overall and i rarely have to replace the leaves. And only had 1 piece of sulpher form in the filter in over 10 hours of running it.

[@isfet5730]

For the upgraded version, you could add a heat generator to burn up excess logs.

[@juicepouch6264]

Great stuff and nice background music !

i use a 9x9 carrot field. there a no seeds or other stuff like poisend potatos or something else.. 9x9 field can easy support up to 10 gas burning generators.. and if your modpack have cooking for blockheads, you could use a sink instead of a pump.. it doen't need energy and works ( in most of the modpack ) as infinite water source

[@toothy_efoa]

For people who may be confused, the trash can is from the Extra Utilities mod

[@SaschaKonietzkoXIV]

not gonna lie- this saved me, thanks man :D

[@jkerr88]

Thanks for the vid!

[@lazypercel5422]

If you have phytogenic insolator or a garden cloche or any auto farming setup, try farming potatoes. 1 baked potato gives you 10MJ of energy, for a price of 100KJ - 200KJ. (1 baked potato = 7 bio fuel = 350 ethylene) and try to give the machines speed upgrades and energy upgrades for better energy output.

[@DeeW02]

Can you please do a full tutorial on the larger one you made with the saplings?

Thanks for help!

[@juckonator2517]

I was New to the mod and Saw this Video... now on my World theres a Generator like this but with 3 prc's and 42 Gas burners outputting 300k+ energy... Well this Video realy helped me ^^

[@taj1994]

I know this is over a year old, but heat generators are great because you can surround them in lava to get passive power generation. It's not a ton (just under 40 FE/t with the generator being in the same space as a lava source block, plus 6 surrounding it), but it's not nothing. Especially for early-game, and not using any fuel. You can also boost this if you temporarily need more power by adding lava/coal/charcoal/wood/etc. as fuel

[@daedalus6433]

Eh nah, you ditch it immediately for solar or wind lol

[@esoxy]

Actually you don’t need some pipes, you can just configure the machines to output gaz or liquides on the sides

[@wfkvr6]

Once you out grow this setup for power you can use the ethylene to make hdpe, and you will need a bunch of hdpe for late game Mekanism.

[@samoragerald2604]

thank you that helped a lot I combine with the mystical agriculture mod it's too cheat especially if we do a bigger version

[@maestriageek8035]

Could you make a video explaining how to make the optimized version you showed at the end of this video?

[@pyeter_pyarker6596]

Could you make a tutorial for the second machine?

[@user-tr2li3vu6u]

I recommend using garden cloches from immersive engineering. They don't need any fertilizer, just water, and are fully compatible with mekanism infrastructure

[@arctikfox5128]

btw the heat generator is actually an infinite power generation if it has lava in its sides, up to 5 (last one for energy output)

[@ardent963]

Good video. Informative and concise. But why do you trash your substrate? You should be turning it into HDPE pellets for sheets.

[@_hieristniemand_5930]

Could u make PLEASE a tutorial about the other machinery it looks very interesting and it is very effective, u would make my day

[@mintybluej]

Prob a bit late, but there’s a pretty good youtuber who went over all the major aspects of Mekanism. His name is Rageplaysgames and I recommend him definitely

[@_hieristniemand_5930]

@@mintybluej Thank you very much I’m gonna check him out

[@Pyrefaerie]

If you touch lava to the heat generator it works that way too, specially if you surround all but the one power side in lava.

[@Alex12640]

Any tutorial videos for the bigger setup?

[@shaunkoutoulas969]

I have the hook up correct but the bio fuel won’t go into gas burner generator only when I have a heat genrator next to it

[@baptiste7553]

Hello, thank you very much for this tutorial, however I just have one question : what is the mod of the tools in your EnderIO farm ?

[@AfraiCat]

It's Mystical Agriculture

[@mmanyt6466]

Clockwork is big brain

[@chazzam1155]

I play valhelsia and made a giant aubergine farm and had no idea what to do with the seeds, saw this video and used all of them for biofuel

[@WheremyPoptart]

Wow this setup is extremely powerful early on.

[@GrimmEZ]

if you need infinite biomass, I would recommend using a harvester from cyclic, in something like a carrot or potato farm.

[@Not_Evil_]

He: Builds this contraption, Me: Spams Wind Turbines

[@WVER-gc2fs]

Does your larger version of the setup also use a second Electrolytic Separator? Or would a single one be enough?

[@128pResolution]

@W34VER2020 you could go for a second, but usually a fully upgraded electrolytic will do the trick

[@SavageLykos]

love the video but cactus is the best biofuel with les set up than a tree farm especially if you dont have ender io

[@eduardodanonao]

To get the max energy u would need to use a ultimate or elite cable, or in pipez use at least the gold upgrades

[@noel0p]

You can pour lava on to the heat generator for passive max 20rf/t if you dont know

[@Batlas]

In 1.18/v10 ethelyne can make almost 80k/tick. They super charged it. Combine it with cactus/snad or melons in a cloche and you can make hundreds of thousands of RF with very little investment (1 crusher, 1 separator) will easily run 5 prcs and a single prc can run ~10 gas burning generators

[@OddWorlderer]

On default configuration, 1 fully upgraded prc can sustain like 11 gas burning generators with etylene, provided you have enough biomass production. that prc needs an electrolytic separator with 4-5 speed upgrades to give sustainable hydrogen. With infinite water and automated melon farm, and a basic crusher fully upgraded, you can get a net gain of ~65Krf/t :D

[@laughingalex7563]

Ratios are likely different in enigmatica six, i should warn. The processing speeds of PRC’s even fully upgraded is now pretty slow, slow enough it cannot keep up with 1mb/tic.

[@iansiccama1085]

the bonsai mod can get enough biomass to sustain the system

[@MrSpecies7]

Mekanism pump does not require an infinite water source. It only requires a single block as it does not actually draw any water off.

[@poppedcann]

i cant find the basic univeral cable anywhere is this still good to use or did an update break it?

[@guilhermebruno385]

Nice video, but where do i put my energy cube to get the energy, sorry if im being stupid i never used this mod before

[@wakie231]

You can surround Heat Generators with Lava and it will automatically generate FE without the need for fuel. :p

[@Kahadi]

It still produces a pitiful amount even like that, but it is better than wasting your coal
