To produce coke, the player needs a specific coke oven that can be build using either fire clay bricks or refractory bricks of any tier. Note that none of the blocks will take damage in the process, regardless of their heat resistance. Depending on how much fire clay or other materials the player has, it might be more efficient to build out of fire clay bricks or out of refractory bricks.<br> | To produce coke, the player needs a specific coke oven that can be build using either [[Ceramic_Blocks|fire clay bricks]] or [[Steel_Making|refractory bricks]] of any tier.

Brown coal (lignite) or black coal (bituminous) can be used in the oven to make coke. While both take the same amount of time to process, a full stack of brown coal will only yield 8 coke, while an equal amount of black coal will yield 12 coke.<br> | [[Coal|Brown coal (lignite)]] or [[Coal|black coal (bituminous)]] can be used in the oven to make coke.

To start the process, simply layer coal in the oven, ignite with a torch and close the coke oven door. Smoke will start rising from the middle block of the structure, similar to the smoke created above a charcoal pit. Note that it might take a few seconds until the smoke starts showing up. | To start the process, simply layer coal in the oven, ignite with a torch and close the coke oven door.
