Once you’ve unlocked the Mini-Forge Recipe, the next step is to craft it. The recipe for a Mini-Forge requires players to have the following materials available:
- Dragon Tooth x5
- Iron Bar x10
- Gold Bar x10
- Iridium Bar x5
Open the crafting menu and navigate to the Mini-Forge recipe. Craft it and then place it wherever you wish to have access to the machine.
What Does the Mini-Forge Do?
The Mini-Forge is a valuable addition to your collection. When placed and accessible, players can interact with it to access the Forge, typically found on Floor 10 of the Volcano Dungeon. With the Mini-Forge, players can upgrade weapons, enchant tools, combine rings, and alter weapon appearances, all conveniently from their own Farm.
The Mini-Forge is not the only new item that has been added to Stardew Valley. Players can unlock the new Anvil machine to re-roll Trinkets stats. They can also enter the basement of Mayor Lewis’s house to find an interesting reward.
