Barrels of Steam

This mod adds steam barrels at 165 °C and 500 °C, as well as recipes for barreling and unbarreling.
There's also optional 15 °C recipes you can enable in the mod settings.

This all stems from a weird plan a friend and I had in our game to build a nuclear reactor on a remote island that we never set foot on, using only drones to send fuel rods across the sea and carry back superheated steam in barrels. Yes, it's a little silly, but you can put any fluid in a tank but not every fluid in a barrel, and we had just kind of expected this feature to already be there, and it wasn't probably due to temperature being relevant. Anyway, our next game plan is to create a base powered only by barrels of hot steam - no solar, no big pylons, no pipes, no tanks, plus more.
