Progressively faster brewing at every tier
Support for vanilla and modded potion recipes
Full hopper and item-pipe automation
Applied Energistics 2 and Refined Storage processing-pattern support
Configurable brewing speeds, fuel efficiency, and energy consumption
English and French translations
Every advanced brewing stand has two augment slots.
Each Capacity Augment adds three bottle slots:
No augment: 3 bottles
One augment: 6 bottles
Two augments: 9 bottles
All available bottles are processed during the same brewing operation.
Replaces blaze powder with NeoForge Energy:
Internal capacity: 100,000 FE
Default consumption: 1,000 FE per bottle and brewing operation
Compatible with standard NeoForge energy cables
Energy consumption can be changed in the configuration
Adds an internal 9,000 mB water tank:
Accepts water from buckets and compatible fluid pipes
Automatically fills empty glass bottles
One water bucket provides enough water for three bottles
Empty buckets are returned after use
Glass bottles are still required, so the augment does not generate free containers.
Advanced Brewing Stands can be used with AE2 processing patterns.
Example pattern:
Input: 3 Awkward Potions + 1 Sugar
Output: 3 Potions of Swiftness
Place a Pattern Provider next to the brewing stand, supply blaze powder or FE, and use an Import Bus to return completed potions to the ME network.
Automated extraction is locked while brewing, preventing unfinished potions from being removed accidentally.
