The linked issue should be accomplished by allowing melting rocks into a smeltery imo

Instead of adding a whole new machine

This is almost identical to the mixing pot as it stands.

I would suggest instead to do what 'modded' crucibles do, where items that get thrown in are consumed (one by one) and then slowly melted. So you throw cobblestone in, and over 25 seconds, 4 mb of lava are added per second. Then, it's ready to consume the next cobblestone you throw in. (And also produces smoke gradually as it goes).

This makes balancing much easier and differentiates this enough to make it worth having alongside the mixing pot

Ok did something very similar to modded, instead of having it tick every second and add it gradually (which with many crucibles it might be unnecessarily performance intensive), I made it melt a block every X ticks, just like modded crucibles depending on the heat source below, it will change the melting speed
