    Might be because thermal centrifuges draw more amps than other machines?

    That's a cool looking farm. The problem for me is that your design only has 2 types of mana beans that can grow at one time. I'm trying to produce at least 9 types of mana beans regularly. Of course your deal can scale, but it requires a lot of dead space between the growing pads :(

    So after messing around with mana bean farms most of this patch and dealing with the issues regarding order upgraded harvest golems I decided to finally bite the bullet and make some Use Core golems. With mana beans use golems are a challenge too because the use core can only plant mana beans...

    It's not something I would try to do on anything other than a very high success chance mutation (such as sinister/fiendish in nether). The magic bees frames are just too good to not use for the purposes of increasing mutation chance and lowering lifespan if you aren't doing everything in a...

    I did on the 3.1.x server with Nether bees, but never tried with rural bees. By the time I got to those I just brute forced with mutagen.

    The essentia is stored in our AE2 ME system :) You can see the Infusion Provider in one of the pictures. Besides, an infusion will start without any essentia at all (and subsequently destabilize). It's something to do with the items.

    Has anyone tried to infuse a fishing golem core in the most recent patch? I have everything exactly as the recipe states in the thaumonimocon (and NEI), but the infusion won't start. I noticed that in some recent patch the motor required changed from MV to HV. I finally bothered to catch/trap...

    I'm 99% sure that Team TechRush on the official server is mass producing industrial diamonds from coal chunks on an automated level. I'm also 100% positive that the coal chunks that we are making use bricks in the recipe, although this might be processed in an assembler machine instead of a...

    On #1, yes. Without Extra Bees there's no frames in alvearies. I seem to recall that an alveary is still faster than an apairy with 3 magic frames, but not sure by how much. Industrial Apiaries can be made faster than alvearies with enough production upgrades though (and EUs)

    Whenever I use the mutatron I always use pristine princesses. If you use ignoble princess in the mutatron it will often give you genetic waste. Pristine princesses can still give genetic waste, but it's incredibly rare. Sometimes the mutatron process will give you an ignoble queen. If that...

    Nope, I just saw that Taumto and Ghouls used the biome changers so figured they worked.

    Right. Also, if you want to use the mutatron, which is really the most powerful bit of it all, you need a ton of imperial bees for royal jelly and also a lot of uranium in order to make the Mutagen required. So even if you do use gendustry you still need to get to clean imperial bees before...

    The best way to do it (if you're not using Gendustry) is to have 1 Oblivion frame and 2 metabolic frames. If you don't have oblivion frames, then I go with 2 necrotic frames and 1 metabolic. Gendustry is the best way to breed bees though, hands down.

    Naw, check your thaumonomicon again man. There are simple TC alchemy recipes to get all of the advanced magic frames. Instead of an unstable propolis just use netherrack. The only advanced frame that requires more advanced bees is the oblivion frame.

    Naw, you can make magic frames without spirit bees. I'ts just 8 sticks surrounding enchanted cloth. Super cheap and easy to make. Joel apparently doesn't have the magic bees page of the thaumonomicon fully researched :)

    I've used magic bee frames through 3 packs now. No issues with flux. I think you may be reading about thaumcraft 3.x version of magic bees.

    They don't wander away xavion. There is no physical path for the golems to get from one level of the farm to another. I set up logs to farm mana beans and put a harvest golem with order upgrade so they replant the beans as they harvest. I plant all of the logs with aura beans and let the...
