Apiary
Apiary reworks beekeeping around a crafted hive, a station that turns comb into honey, and a villager who trades in both.
The vanilla beehive recipe makes a hive instead. Bees build honeycomb in it before they make honey, and stickers on the hive show its honey, comb and bees. The hive appearance will change when:
- More combs are made (top wooden area will get a more dense pattern)
- More honey is produced (more honey will start dripping on the front)
- How many bees are inside (small bee markers will appear on the front)
Use a glass bottle to take one bottle of honey, or a bucket to take four levels at once as a honey bucket. Shears cut off one honeycomb.
The honey press is a furnace-like station. Honeycomb goes in the top slot, and glass bottles or a bucket in the bottom one, which also decides the output.
| Input | Container | Output |
|---|---|---|
| 1 honeycomb | 1 glass bottle | 1 honey bottle |
| 1 honeycomb block | 4 glass bottles | 4 honey bottles |
| 4 honeycomb | 1 bucket | 1 honey bucket |
| 1 honeycomb block | 1 bucket | 1 honey bucket |
A honey bucket holds four bottles' worth of honey and crafts to and from a honey block.
An unemployed villager claims a honey press and becomes a beekeeper.
