how much coal to smelt 64 items minecraft
Before starting a big smelting job it helps to know how much fuel to bring and how long to wait. The math uses only the machine smelting time and the fuel burn time. The calculator below opens with 64 items and coal.
64 times 200 ticks divided by 1,600 ticks per coal gives exactly 8.
Each plank smelts 1.5 items, so 64 / 1.5 = 42.67, rounded up to 43.
A furnace takes 200 ticks, 10 seconds, per item. A blast furnace and a smoker take 100 ticks, 5 seconds. Blast furnaces smelt only ores and smokers cook only food, so regular furnaces handle everything else.
Time drops in proportion to the number of furnaces: 64 items in 4 furnaces take 160 seconds instead of 640. The calculator accepts 1 to 16 furnaces in parallel.
A lava bucket burns 20,000 ticks and smelts 100 items, more than fits in one furnace stack, and the empty bucket stays in the fuel slot. It is the most efficient fuel in the table.
