'''Powder''' is any object stored in [[Container#Barrels, bins and bags|bags]] that is not a [[quarry bush|leaf]] or a [[seed]]. This category includes [[flour]], [[dye]], [[sugar]], [[sand]], and [[plaster]]. Powders are typically produced at a [[mill]]. Dwarves and humans will occasionally request powders, and you can request goods of this category too. Auto-generated [[titan]]s, [[forgotten beast]]s, and [[demon]]s can be made of any [[material]] in the game, and non-fleshy ones one property in common: when killed, they will only leave a pile of unusable powder of some sort behind for your dwarves to clean up.

This article is about an older version of DF.

Powder is any fine-grained loose material, including flour, dye, sugar, sand, and plaster. To be useful, powder must be stored in a bag; powder that has been dumped from a bag is not recoverable. Many types of powder can only be produced at a mill or quern. Caravans will often have various powders available for trade, and further quantities can be requested from the outpost liaison.
