Processing

To create your first iron infused oak sapling you have to create iron infused bone meal.

Crafting Iron Bone Meal

Apply this to any oak sapling to magically infuse the sapling:

Create Iron Saplings

Once the sapling is infused, you will see it grow into an iron infused oak. Cutting this tree will give you iron infused logs which can be processed into ingot. But be careful if you cut this logs into planks all sparks of iron ore getting lost.

Next you have to craft a fire bowl

Crafting Fire Bowl

This allows you to safely burn the logs and collect the ashes. Burning iron infused logs inside a fire bowl will produce iron infused ash.

Create Iron Ash

Now you can use water to wash the iron infused ash to receive iron shreds.

Wash Iron Shreds

Once you have collected 9 shreds you can craft a raw iron.

Crafting Iron Ore

Alternatively, you smelt the iron shred into nuggets.

Burn Iron Nuggets

Automation

Fire Bowl

The fire bowl will still burn for several seconds after a log is processed. This allows you to add some hopper to automate your ash processing. But you have to ensure that you will not run out of logs. Otherwise, you have to ignite the bowl again.
