40K–120K $/hrVIA ORDERS · LIVE
The basalt farm is still one of the strongest block farms on DonutSMP even after a price cut. Lava flowing onto soul soil next to blue ice makes basalt instantly. The simple generator is cheap and you mine it by hand, the automatic farm uses pistons and hoppers for around 36.5K basalt an hour. Judge it by block rate and the current sell price, not old dollar claims.

What you need

Soul Soil
Lava Bucket- Efficiency V pickaxe for the manual version
- Place lava over soul soil next to blue ice, basalt forms where they meet.
- For the simple generator, mine the basalt yourself with an Efficiency pickaxe.
- For an automatic design, use a block breaker permitted by the server and collect the drops with hoppers. Pistons alone do not break basalt.
- Sell to orders or /ah, check the price before scaling.
