Smelting items in the bloomery requires fuel (coal or charcoal and the item you desire to process (iron ore nuggets, quartz chunks).

The Bloomery does not have a GUI. To place items into the bloomery base, aim your crosshairs at the Bloomery Base and right click with the desired item in your active hand.

After placing items into the base, you may read the description of the items currently in the Bloomery by aiming your crosshairs at the base block. The interface window will display currently loaded contents. (Circled in Red)

To ignite the filled Bloomery, press Left Shift to sneak + right click on the base with a Torch. After a few seconds you will see the smoke from the chimney, and the hole on the base will start to light up.

Smelting materials in the bloomery will take around 10 in-game hours. Once the smelting process is complete, break the Bloomery to gather your materials.

Please note that breaking the Bloomery returns about 8 fire bricks, so you will need another 4 bricks for crafting both Bloomery blocks to repeat this process.
