  1. Don't you hate waiting millenia and wasting stacks of precious coal that could fuel your steel just to make a few bricks or ashlar? This could be a solution:The Shaft Lime Kiln Faster,and a bit less wasteful perhaps.A multi block structure that uses fire clay bricks or refractory,maybe 5 blocks tall. Grates on it's bottom,and stacks of coal above it.Ignite and place stacks of lime inside.Wait a day.And there you go. Wikipedia: A lime kiln is a kiln used for the calcination of limestone (calcium carbonate) to produce the form of lime called quicklime Shaft kilns The theoretical heat (the standard enthalpy) of reaction required to make high-calcium lime is around 3.15 MJ per kg of lime, so the batch kilns were only around 20% efficient. The key to development in efficiency was the invention of continuous kilns, avoiding the wasteful heat-up and cool-down cycles of the batch kilns. The first were simple shaft kilns, similar in construction to blast furnaces. These are counter-current shaft kilns. Modern variants include regenerative and annular kilns. Output is usually in the range 100–500 tonnes per day.
  2. Food preservation sure we have crocks and cellars,but I'd prefer to be able to store juices and milk.Btw cellars are OP in my opinion.Could be tuned down maybe?Hesitant in saying that,because the game is kind of difficult and I don't want to mess with it much. Maybe I should have suggested fruit drying. I don't want to make alcohol for fruit nutrition in winter,and jams are kinda expensive just for fruit nutrition.
  3. Silver was historically used by rich nobles to preserve food.It has antimicrobial properties. It's even used to treat burn wounds as silver sulfadiazone today.
