The '''material reducer''' is a [[Minecraft:block]] used in chemistry to learn about the natural world, by reducing ''[[Minecraft:Minecraft]]'' blocks to their component [[Minecraft:element]]s.

== Obtaining ==
Material reducers can be obtained from the [[Minecraft:Creative inventory]]. They cannot be obtained in [[Minecraft:Survival]] without [[Minecraft:commands]]. {{IN|Bedrock}}, the world must also have the "Education Edition" setting enabled.

=== Breaking ===
A material reducer can be mined with any tool, but [[Minecraft:pickaxe]]s are faster.

{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Material Reducer|pickaxe|drop=1}}

== Usage ==
Using the material reducer opens an interface of 10 [[Minecraft:inventory]] slots. The central slot at the top is the input, where blocks can be placed in order to break them down into their component parts. When this happens, the output slots fill up with the percentage of [[Minecraft:element]]s found in the broken down material.

Certain blocks such as [[Minecraft:soul sand]] and [[Minecraft:netherrack]] contain mysterious elements yet to be discovered. These are represented by an unknown element that displays as other elements, but with a question mark in place of a periodic table symbol. If you take out a few elements, but keep some in too, then the block you placed will have the missing model item, which you cannot place in the inventory.

When an element is taken from one of the output slots, the input slot gets cleared, and if there are elements in other output slots, the input slot becomes red and does not accept further input until all of the outputs are cleared.

Any block broken down in the material reducer gives out 100 different elements.

Note that amethyst-related blocks and items, copper-related blocks and items, mud, coarse dirt, raw ore blocks and items, deepslate ores, iron, gold, and diamond equipment, doors, and trapdoors cannot be put into a material reducer, despite them being related to blocks that can.

All compounds that can be made in the compound creator and lab table can also be reduced in the material reducer, yielding their respective ingredients.

* There is currently a glitch in the material reducer's GUI: When the input slot becomes red, the "tubes" that are connected to it are sometimes rendered over the red square, which causes the image to flick between the normal square and the tubes.
