  • The kelp farm and smelter really has the edge over every other one. It seems much easier to build in the early game. Easier to add to the system once it is built. It is self-sustaining. Plus it can store a huge amount of free XP if it just left to do it's thing. It also has the added bonus of giving you a free block to build with the extra fact it makes a block that can be converted to bonemeal.

  • Having played on a SMP with an autocrafting mod for a while now, I can tell you a kelp block farm is a must-have. Besides the points in this video, a shulker box full of kelp blocks is incredibly energy-dense, considering the inventory space it takes up (a shulker box full of coal blocks is the only thing in the game that's more dense but coal blocks have all the drawbacks covered in the video). Portability is a nice option. Sometimes you want a small furnace array near your sorting system or a small mending system in your base. A single shulker box of kelp blocks will fuel these sorts of setups for a very long time, probably longer than you'll play in the world. Also, if you end up with excess (and you will) they can be traded for emeralds with butcher villagers.

  • Even though the azalea farm probably isn't the best choice, sometimes Minecraft isn't about being the most efficient. I think it's genuinely an incredibly cool and interesting farm, using the azalea and moss together all for one common goal and how so little goes to waste. If I had the chance to, I'd definitely go with it because it'd make my Minecraft experience the most fun.

  • For an everyday smelter array bamboo is still the best choice, as its cheap, easy to set up and low waste. For a super smelter system where you smelt shulkers of material at a time, though, I think kelp blocks are a good choice, being dense fuel that is not too complicated or restrictive in its setup.

    • ? Using 4 planks (as it’s a simple factor of 64 ie. the number that you presented), turning them into slabs would leave you with 6 slabs and 1 plank. Each slab has a 0.75 fuel time, which adds up to 4.5, then we’ll add the remaining plank (1.5ft) for a total of 6.0 fuel time. Smelting them as planks will be 4*1.5 fuel time or simply 6.0. _They’re the same._

  • For me, totally automated bamboo is the best. Easy and cheap to build, and easy and cheap to expand and dependable. How you burn them (bamboo, sticks or planks) really doesn't matter much if you have enough input. They also don't have much if any waste as you burn just what you need. Other then that a lava collector is great when one does not want to build a automated farm. I find that 6 cauldrons are usually enough for lava on demand, and that allows me to smelt a few items (wasting the rest of the lava), whenever I want to. Additionally slabs are slightly better then planks as they burn with less waste (when items into the smelter run out and the fuel continues to burn). It's not much, but with the autocrafter it's easy to break them into slabs.

  • One thing not discussed in this video is how most furnace arrays are only going to be smelting 1 or two items per furnace, so high powered items like kelp or coal are pretty trash for that unless you only smelt in batches of 8x/20x: where x= # of furnaces. This leaves planks, and carpet. If you allow duping I would go with carpet, if not, bamboo planks might not even work for you. If you have a really large high precision furnace array that only ever smelts 1 item per furnace, never more, using 9 bamboo for a plank isn’t worth it when 4 will do the job just fine. Otherwise smelt in batches of 3x because planks are only more efficient if you use 2 of them to smelt 3 items.

  • I use carpet duping on my super smelter. It’s cheap (free) and since it takes multiple carpets per item, overall fuel efficiency is great since you can run any size batch through the smelter and not waste fuel. That was my biggest issue with prior furnace arrays, having to run items through in efficiently sized batches to get the most out of the fuel in it. Now I don’t even have to think about it, just toss it in.

  • I wouldn't outright eliminate all mobfarms and rather make them another category. Minor note: you *could* make wood farms work without TNT, either by using creepers or a wither, even though neither would be a contender. I actually made a cobblestone farm with a wither before, but for some reason it glitched out (might have been something with the server, since it worked for quite a while) and that was a whole mess. And setting it up in general is rather stressful, so certainly not for everyone, but it's true survival without cheats and fully automated.

  • What is the best kinda depends how much fuel you need and what infrastructure you have or soon will build. For small amounts, a few Lava Buckets, Wool Farm or a small Bamboo, Kelp Farm. For medium amounts, if you have a surpluss of bonemeal, the small bamboo farm is all you need, or if you have a blaze farm, wither farm or fortress farm that should be enough. AFK for a few hours, you will have all the fuel you will need. Only if you need a really huge amount of fuel, then a big bamboo/kelp farm is worth the time and effort to build it. Which for most casual players won't be the case ...

  • 100% bamboo farm. because not only is the bamboo amazing as a fuel source, it's also usable to make pretty much any standard shape in the game. along with it being able to grow regardless of conditions. it doesn't require water to grow, and the painstaking process of dicking around with water source blocks. meaning it can be put in the nether. the farm can be made small to start and expanded upon over time, making it ideal for challenges that are based on a timed number of days. aside from the ugly color of the bamboo shapes, it's hands down the most OP block in the game outside of the crafting bench.

  • Re: some things you said about wool: I don’t think it’s that difficult to get a productive wool farm, but carpets are slightly better than wool even if wool is cheap and you don’t like duping, and banners are worse per wool block than the wool itself, so I agree with your conclusions. [comment removed; I had not meant to hit send yet and it’s addressed later in the video] Similarly to the wool, I think you shouldn’t discount coal and blaze rods so early; you recently ended up using coal in the beacon farm because you already needed to be farming wither skeletons.

    • I see your point about coal and blaze rods, but there's one problem; the only real reason he used it is because he needs beacons, and most people don't grind so many wither skeleton skulls that they would need a farm. It's good for convinence, yes, but if you don't need them you would have to go out of your way to sit there in the nether. I do think it could definitely be valid with a gold farm, getting both at the same time, the only problem is having both lowers efficiency

  • I have the auto crafter experimental feature activated. This week I built a kelp farm+auto smelter. In my test world it provided enough Kelp to run 48 blast furnaces. But in my main world it was enough only for 37. I watched this video and found out the random tick distance is 8 chunks from the player spherical. So 3 chunks were never random ticked for me. It's suck to found out this way, but thank you Ray.

    • 1 bamboo plank can only smelt 1.5 blocks vs 1 kelp block witch is 20 blocks also it takes more time for you to get a bamboo block vs just getting a kelp block and by the time you get 10 bamboo blocks witch smelts 20 per 10 block you would already have 3x kelp blocks witch smelt more

  • Imma just drop some numbers here from my own research. Kelp block = (20 - 9 smelts to process) / 9 pieces = net 1.222... per piece Bamboo grows twice as fast as kelp, and most efficient form being 2 planks with 3 smelts total. 2 planks / 9 bamboo = 0.333... per piece. That's less than kelp for your time, but tileable and less potential waste. Charcoal = 8 - 1 = net 7. While I don't believe it can be fully automated, a giant jungle tree can grow naturally, be harvested with a stone axe and replanted, and a stack cooked in a 1 self-refueling auto-furnace faster than a 1 self-kelp-fueled auto-smoker with infinite kelp could produce the equivalent. Depends on use case though. Bamboo tileable for an array, kelp blocks for a high-density (I recommed cooking the kelp with bamboo,) charcoal for the more "cozy burrow" vibe and don't mind lumberjacking.

  • The more furnaces in your smelter-I have 128- the more you have to worry about wasted fuel. If you start burning a kelp block, but don’t have 128 x 20 items to smelt, all that extra potential is wasted. This is why I use planks, it will have the smallest waste. Now that I’ll be able to auto craft from bamboo, world domination is assured.

  • Still gotta be coal and coal block. It doesn't require that much redstone, the biggest time investment is just mobproofing it which isn't very intesive if you find a good location which isn't that hard. It compacts to Coal Blocks for maximum efficiency. And no mater the farm it's still requires the player in the area so you can't just leave it at spawn to passively produce produce while you're away. Besides, the skeletons have great drops and they produce such a ridiculous quantity that unless you need to be running the smelter for days you probably aren't going to run out from a trip or two. Lets also not forget that any kelp farm that can produce enough to compete would be a lag machine as well, it's not something you want in your base so you'd only have it in an area you will only visit when you want to smelt, in which case just going to the skeleton farm and grabbing a shulker or two of coal is by far the better option.

  • Instead of simply looking at the smelt/hr, how about taking a look more into smelts/mspt, for example, when showing the kelp, bamboo or, to a lesser degree the bonemeal farm in the video, the game visually lags, that might just be client side, but can't imagine the server is to happy with it either

    • Glad I'm not the only person who was thinking about lag throughout the video. It's funny seeing the bamboo and kelp farms be called the best when they're hindering gameplay that much. People on weaker PCs might want to use the carpet duping method just for the fact that it won't impact their game nearly as much as the other methods..

For coal you need to be very late in game and build a wither skeleton farm, transport coal to the overworld and craft it. I dont think its best option, too much work Dried kelp requres some redstone and furnaces but farm can be made earlygame, is easy to build and has ok smelting time. Also you get free xp since furnace that dries the kelp works too. Kelp is better.
