+The Fermenter is a machine that processes organic matter such as Saplings and Sugar Canes into [[Biomass]], which can be used as a fuel in a [[Biogas Engine]], or in the Bio Generator.
+It can also be used to produce [[Short Mead]] out of [[Honeydew]] and Liquid Honey.
+Fermentation Items such as [[Fertilizer]], [[Mulch]] or [[Compost]] are required as catalysts. Each item has different properties.
+
+Any liquids produced by this machine can be canned, bottled or extracted via Buildcraft Waterproof Pipes.
