Millstone

The Millstone is a more basic equivalent of the Crushing Wheels, and is most likely the first of the two that the Player will construct. It is capable of applying milling recipes to any valid items inserted from above.

Throughput (Speed)

There are 2 variables that effect the processing speed of the Millstone: RPM and recipe duration. The recipe duration is a number assigned to each recipe to determine is processing time in relation to the RPM, a table with values below.

Throughput Formulas

To calculate the exact number of game ticks it take to process one recipe (gt/1), use this formula:

$g t / 1 = C e i l (r e c i p e d u r a t i o n / m i n (m a x (A b s (R P M / 16), 1), 512)) + 1$

To calculate the exact number of recipes per second (r/s), divide the number of game ticks by 20:

$r / s = (C e i l (r e c i p e d u r a t i o n / m i n (m a x (A b s (R P M / 16), 1), 512)) + 1) / 20$

Recipe Table

If a recipe doesn't appear in the table is duration is probably 100, because that's the default value.

Usage

A Millstone can be powered by a Shaft from below or by a Cogwheel from the side.

There are two ways to insert items into a Millstone:

Dropping items on top of it: anything that can be processed will be picked up if the input buffer is empty.
Hoppers, Funnels, Chutes, and other inserters can directly feed it items from any side.

Once a valid item has been placed into the mill through any of the means listed above, the Millstone will begin to turn, and particles will appear around the machine. Once finished, the Millstone will not drop or output the result by itself, but there are two ways to remove processed items:

Right-clicking the Millstone with an empty hand: this will manually pick up everything in the output buffer.
Hoppers, Funnels, Chutes, and other exporters can pull items out of the output buffer from any side.

The Millstone takes time to process its inputs. The exact time depends on the Block Hardness and the amount of speed being fed into the machine. It follows the formula: $(128 * B l o c k H a r d n e s s) / R P M = P r o c e s s i n g S p e e d$ , where the Processing Speed is the time in seconds the Millstone will take to create an output.

Millstones and Crushing Wheels can apply the following recipes to inserted items:
