It seems the _Aquilonia Server Mod_ might be the issue. Running my last tests now (waiting to connect after changing the mods _again_). And yes, that is the culprit. ---

For the Dismantler step you need to take the blood out of the fluid press into your inventory. When you place gruel in the wheel make sure it is switched OFF before you place it then switch it on. Some of these journey steps seem to make you want to jump through stupid hoops! ---

I know a few I got I have no idea how I got. Just persistence. I couldn’t get tinker to start. Just wouldn’t. I think the first time I activated it after I finished blacksmith 2{?} it worked. ---

> [@Korumai](#): > > I’m having this issue with first step in dismatler journey with the bone and the grinder I don’t know if you’ve already found the answer to this particular problem. I was struggling with it too, but I only put in a small handful at a time (1-10). When I put in about 23-27 bones, it worked. Same with the stone from the Chef journey. You don’t even need to convert them. Hope that helps you, and anyone else running into the same issues. ---
