Querns can be powered by windmills to partially automate grinding, for more info on power generation & power trains, see [[Mechanical_Power|mechanical power]]. With a full complement of sails, the quern will grind materials at wind speeds as low as 25%. | Querns can be powered by windmills to partially automate grinding, for more info on power generation & power trains, see [[Mechanical_Power|mechanical power]].

* '''Material Output:''' Placing any item in the output slot will block the output, causing product items to drop out of the sides of the quern. To collect items, hoppers can be fed into chests. Place the hopper at the level of the block supporting the quern, not next to the side of the quern itself. If the hopper, or any block for that matter, is placed next to the side of the quern, this placement will prevent the quern from producing items}. Further, if the quern tries to output an item but the side is blocked, it will restart grinding the item. This means placing one block adjacent to the quern will reduce efficiency by 1 quarter. | * '''Material Output:''' Placing any item in the output slot will block the output, causing product items to drop out of the sides of the quern.
