How do I create an infinite water source?

Updated January 30, 2026

In modded environments, you can move beyond physical water pools by integrating an infinite source directly into your digital ME Network. This allows for high-speed fluid automation without the need for manual bucket handling.

1. The Fluid Interface Method (Standard AE2)

This is the primary way to provide a constant stream of water for autocrafting or machine cooling using base AE2 mechanics.

  • Setup: Place an ME Fluid Interface and connect it to your ME cable network.
  • Configuration: Click the interface and place a Water Bucket into the top configuration slot.
  • Behavior: The system now recognizes water as an available resource. When a machine or Fluid Export Bus requests water, the network “simulates” the supply from this interface.
