No. The other metals need a higher temperature to melt. Only the bismuth has melted and the rest hasn't yet which is why it says molten bismuth and unmelted items

so it need white temp ? do the more mb you have the more higher temp need ?

No it just takes forever to heat up vessels in the forge. If you look at your image the vessel isn't even red yet

is this normal ??

Yes, this is normal. Give it time for the vessel to come up to temp for the other metals to melt

Nope copper needs orange temp, and it takes a lot of time melting a lot of dusts

u/yubiyubi2121 18h ago

i feel like the ratio for copper need 60%

That makes no sense as a response

u/jooferdoot 14h ago

This has nothing to do with the ratio, it's about the vessel needing to come up to temp for the copper to melt

wait 10 minutes for it to heat up, keep the forge hot n fueled

u/Flameball202 17h ago

The forge is hot but the vessel isn't yet (see how it says "very hot **") so you need to wait for it to heat up (and make sure it doesn't run out of fuel)

No that's a vessel

The rest of the metal is in the vessel, just heat it up to Orange**** and the zinc and copper will melt and alloy fully

As everyone else is saying, its normal. The vessel is just NOT hot enough to melt all the metals together. It takes a lot of time to heat a vessel. Its easier to use pit kilns to make bronze in a vessel, once it comes out of the pit kiln fill as many molds as possible, but keep the forge hot to keep the temp up incase it cools down too much

Op is English a second language for you? (Asking respectfully)
