Boiler
A vessel used for heating fluids.
Notes
A Boiler is a crafted component used to heat fluids, serving as a key ingredient in advanced industrial machines like the Oil Refinery, Portable Steam Engine, and Solar Generator. It is produced at a crafting station and weighs 500 grams, stacking up to 100. Since boilers are required for several mid-to-late-game machines, keeping a stock of them in your store or personal inventory ensures you can quickly build or upgrade your power and refining infrastructure when needed.
