Wikipedia article

This article is about an older version of DF.

Steel is the best common metal for smithing Template:L and Template:L. Products made with steel have a very high value, equal to that of Template:L.

Steel can be smelted at a Template:L by a Template:L with the Template:L Template:L activated.

Recipe

Steel production is fairly complex compared to the creation of other alloys. Important note: in steelmaking, Template:L or charcoal is used as an ingredient, not as a Template:L. A conventional (non-magma) smelter will require 1 extra unit of fuel to power itself in each reaction.

The first step is to create Template:L:

Produces:
  • 1 bar of pig iron

The second step combines the pig iron with plain iron to produce steel:

  • 1 bar of iron
  • 1 bar of pig iron
  • 1 Template:L stone
  • 1 unit of fuel
  • A power source (fuel, magma)
Produces:
  • 2 bars of steel

The overall reaction consumes 2 bars of iron, 2 units of flux, and 2 units of fuel (plus an extra 2 fuel at a conventional smelter). This produces 2 bars of steel.

Remember that smelting the iron Template:L will also require 2 fuel at a conventional smelter.
