Iron Bloom is a rough mass of iron left after Iron Ore is burned with Charcoal. It is the halfway point between raw ore and usable metal.
Hammering it at a forge gives twelve Iron Chunk. Those chunks feed almost every iron recipe in blacksmithing. The bloom can also be melted into a crucible for casting.
The bloom is made from Iron Ore at a Primitive Furnace or better. It is heavy and fills both hands. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
Two forge recipes turn the bloom into chunks. The Extract Iron from Bloom recipe takes the bloom and four Charcoal. A hammer or club hammer and tongs or crude tongs are needed and kept. The Extract Iron from Iron Bloom recipe does the same job with eighteen Charcoal. Both run at a Primitive Forge or better, and both give twelve Iron Chunk.
The Extract Iron from Bloom recipe is the cheaper of the two, so it is the one to use.
The Extract Iron from Iron Ore recipe also accepts a bloom in place of ore. It takes a Large Ceramic Crucible and eighteen Charcoal at a Simple Furnace or better. The result is a Large Ceramic Crucible with Iron, ready for the Cast Iron Bar and Cast Iron Ingot recipes.
How to Get Iron Bloom
The Extract Iron Bloom recipe makes it. It takes one Iron Ore and eight Charcoal at a Primitive Furnace or better. No skill or tool is needed.

Notes
- The bloom fills both hands, so it is best worked near the furnace.
- Twelve Iron Chunk from one bloom is enough for three Iron Bars.
- The four-Charcoal bloom recipe saves a lot of fuel over the eighteen-Charcoal one.
