Description

Biofuel Bucket is the portable form of biofuel in the Ala Industrial mod: a vanilla-pattern bucket holding 1000 mB of the murky olive fluid that the fermenter brews from organic matter and water. No crafting recipe produces Biofuel Bucket. The fermenter fills an empty bucket placed in its draw slot for free, outside the recipe, and fluid from a tank or a spilled puddle is scooped with the ordinary right-click. The item stacks to one per slot, and the fluid inside is renewable: every fermenter batch costs 600 EU, 300 ticks and 100 mB of water, and the yield depends only on the feedstock tier — 20 mB for four pieces of garden litter, 60 mB for two items of harvest, raw meat or eggs, and 150 mB for one rich item such as a golden carrot or honey.

The only destination for Biofuel Bucket is the distillation column: 1000 mB of biofuel plus 400 EU become 900 mB of nutrient solution, enough for 18 sprinkler waterings. Despite the name, biofuel is not a combustible in Ala Industrial — no generator burns it, and the fluid stands outside the c:combustion_fuels tag that covers diesel, fuel oil and lava. Spilled biofuel is safe to stand in: the fluid spreads like water but does not burn, does not drown and deals no fall damage. Biofuel Bucket exists only in Minecraft 26.2 Java Edition, on both the Fabric and NeoForge loaders.

Java Edition Guide

How to fill and use a Biofuel Bucket

  1. 1

    Brew biofuel in the fermenter

    Load the LV fermenter with organic matter and water: every batch runs 300 ticks on 600 EU and yields 20, 60 or 150 mB of biofuel depending on the feedstock tier.

  2. 2

    Fill an empty bucket at the machine

    Place a vanilla empty bucket in the fermenter's draw slot: the machine fills the container into a Biofuel Bucket for free, outside the recipe, and moves it to the output slot.

  3. 3

    Feed the distillation column

    Put the Biofuel Bucket into the column's intake: the input tank accepts biofuel on the same footing as oil, and the empty bucket comes back.

  4. 4

    Collect the nutrient solution

    Let the column finish the run: 1000 mB of biofuel plus 400 EU turn into 900 mB of nutrient solution — 18 waterings for a sprinkler.

Biofuel burns nowhere

No generator in Ala Industrial accepts biofuel, and the fluid is not part of the c:combustion_fuels tag — treat the Biofuel Bucket as farm feedstock for the nutrient solution chain, not as a power source.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get a Biofuel Bucket in Ala Industrial?

Biofuel Bucket is never crafted. The fermenter fills an empty bucket from its draw slot for free, and a tank or a spilled puddle is scooped with the ordinary right-click.

Can a Biofuel Bucket fuel a generator or a furnace?

No. Biofuel is not a combustible in Ala Industrial: no generator burns it, and the fluid stands outside the c:combustion_fuels tag of diesel, fuel oil and lava.

How much nutrient solution does one Biofuel Bucket produce?

The distillation column turns the 1000 mB inside a Biofuel Bucket into 900 mB of nutrient solution for 400 EU — enough for 18 sprinkler waterings.

Does biofuel run out like an oil lake?

No. The fermenter brews biofuel from farmed organic matter, so the supply regrows: every batch costs 600 EU, 300 ticks and 100 mB of water.

Is spilled biofuel dangerous?

No. Biofuel Bucket contents spread like water but do not burn, do not drown the player and deal no fall damage — a puddle is safe to walk through.

Why do Biofuel Buckets not stack?

Biofuel Bucket follows the vanilla water-bucket pattern: the filled item stacks to one per slot, exactly like a water bucket in Minecraft.
