Someone explain this weird logic to me.

I have 1 washed ore, it is 1kg. I can smelt that washed ore for 4 bars. Each bar is 2.5kg. How have I gone from 1kg to 10kg? Does this make sense to anyone?

Eco does not have washed ores without mods. Not sure why you posted that here ...

I get this is a mod question, but I'm gonna reply anyway, for fun.

Weight = gravity acting on a object, and is linked to the mass of an object and it's density. So there are two conclusions to be made if an object is gaining weight...

1.) Human error or Someone goofed
2.) Your object gained mass. It's possible, that the intention was to show that mass was gained by the object through the process of washing. Perhaps they wanted to show that the object has retained water or some other substance through the process which is has been subjected to?

this occurs in vanilla too, i believe .58 iron bars can create a rivet that weighs almost 5 times the input
