Coffee Machine

Build your own cup of coffee — every ingredient changes its name, its food value and how long it speeds you up.

The coffee machine lets you configure a cup yourself. Every ingredient adds its own nutrition, saturation and Speed duration, and the finished cup carries those values individually — two cups of coffee in the same chest can be worth completely different amounts.

How it works

The machine has three ingredient slots, a cup slot and an output slot. Put ingredients in and nothing happens yet: it also needs an Empty Cup in the cup slot. Put one there through the GUI, or right-click the machine while holding a mug.

Brewing starts on its own once there is a valid base in slot A and a cup waiting, and stops if the output slot is already full.

Brew time depends on how many ingredient slots you filled: 1 slot = 200 ticks (10s), 2 slots = 300 ticks (15s), 3 slots = 400 ticks (20s).

Ingredients

Slot A is mandatory and picks the base. Slots B and C are optional. Within each slot only one ingredient applies — the machine checks them in the order listed and the first match wins.

SlotIngredientSpeedNutritionSaturation
A — Base (required)Grinded / Ground Coffee+10+4+0.6
Cocoa Powder+4+3+0.4
Milk Bucket+2+4+0.6
B — Additive (optional)Sugar——+0.1
Cocoa Powder+5+6+1.0
Grinded / Ground Coffee+6+2+0.3
C — Flavour (optional)Milk Bucket+5+2+0.3
Maple Syrup+10+2+0.2
Ice Cube (the block)+2+1+0.4
Honey Bottle+7+1+0.2

What the numbers mean

  • Speed is the duration in seconds of the Speed effect the cup gives, and the effect is Speed II. A cup made of Grinded Coffee + Grinded Coffee + Maple Syrup totals 10 + 6 + 10 = 26 seconds of Speed II. A cup with 0 total gives no effect at all.
  • Nutrition is hunger points restored, exactly like any other food.
  • Saturation is a modifier, not a flat value — the saturation you actually get is nutrition × modifier × 2, clamped to your hunger bar. See Food and Nutrition.

Drinking a cup returns an Empty Cup. If your stack is bigger than one the empty cup goes to your inventory (or drops at your feet if there is no room).

Shift-right-click places a cup as a decorative block instead of drinking it. A placed cup keeps its name and values.

Drink names

The machine names the cup after what you put in it, and the name is what tells you at a glance what a cup is worth.

Whatever you put in slot C — and Sugar in slot B — is appended: Espresso with Milk, Chocolate Milk with Sugar and Honey, and so on.

Cups also render differently depending on the base: cocoa and milk bases each get their own model.
