The Fermenter is the main machine used when making ethanol crystals. A good supply of sugar cane is recommended when making ethanol, for sugar, and making sludge.
Standard Fermenter setup using DC Engine
Usage[]
The Fermenter requires a steady supply of rotarycraft power from the rear to function, a DC Electric Engine is recommended.
The fermenter will not function very quickly when there is a heat source nearby or when in a colder biome, the temperature gauge on the left should be in the green to run at top speeds.
Creating Yeast in the fermenter
Right-clicking on the fermenter while holding a water bucket will fill a quarter of the internal tank, or water can be piped in via liquid pipes.
Sending the fermenter a redstone signal will change the automation type in the top right corner of the GUI.
Saplings, Sugar Cane and other Plants will work in the bottom slot
Usable Engines[]
Although the DC Electric Engine is recommended other engines will also work. The microturbine will max out the highest possible working speed on the fermenter.
