Dried kelp blocks are storage blocks equivalent to nine dried kelp. They can also be used as fuel.
Dried kelp blocks can be mined using any tool or by hand, but a hoe is the fastest way to break it.
Dried kelp blocks can be used to store dried kelp in a compact fashion.
Unlike hay bales, dried kelp blocks cannot be placed in every orientation, despite both being bundled dried plant matter and using the same type of model.
Dried kelp blocks can be used as fuel in furnaces, blast furnaces, and smokers. It is able to smelt 20 items, taking 4,000 ticks in a furnace, and 2,000 ticks in the blast furnace and smoker. This is 2.5 times the burn duration of coal and charcoal, and 0.25 times the burn duration of a block of coal. It is the fuel with the highest number of operations per fuel below 64 items. The highest number of items that can be smelted without any refills or hoppers and without loss of fuel is 60 items (3 dried kelp blocks).
Crafting a dried kelp block first requires smelting 9 pieces of kelp, so its net fuel value is only 11 items. However, using a different fuel source to smelt pieces of kelp that are then crafted into dried kelp blocks, the number of operations per fuel is effectively increased. If a lava bucket were used to smelt 100 pieces of kelp that were then crafted into 11 dried kelp blocks, which can then smelt a total of 220 items, giving the lava bucket a net increase of 120 items smelted. Campfires can be used to cook the kelp without using up fuel.

Dried kelp blocks have a 50% chance of increasing the compost level in a composter by 1. Composting a dried kelp block instead of 9 kelp items (whether raw or dried) is less efficient. For example, 100 dried kelp blocks would yield 7 1β7 bone meal on average, while 900 kelp items needed to make them in the first place would instead yield 38 4β7 bone meal on average.
