The Canning Machine puts food into Tin Cans, which, unlike normal food, can be stacked up to 64. It also is used to refill Fuel Cans and Jetpacks.

To start canning, put the food you want to can in the upper slot and the cans in the lower slot and supply power, either by cable or with a battery in the left slot.

Different foods fill a different number of cans, depending on the type of food. The Food List details the different amounts of cans generated for each type of food.

Note: if you're using BuildCraft Pipes there is a bug in IC2 1.337b where the output sides of the canning machine are reversed. So if you want to attach a pipe to extract filled cans you need to attach it to the left side of the machine.

Recipe

Usage

Supply with food items (top slot) and Tin Cans (bottom slot).

Please note the above GUI is not correct. There is another Slot for an energy source.

Canned Food is opened by right clicking on the filled can while holding it. It will be eaten instantly like the old Minecraft food and will consume the can along with it but in newer versions you are given back an empty can. Each consumed can of food heals one heart directly, instead of restoring hunger like normal foods. This makes Canned Food a benefit to explorers in dangerous situations!

Canning Machines are also used to fill Fuel Cans with fuel cells. Six fuel cells or eight biofuel cells are required to completely fill an empty fuel can.
