# Time

**Use this method to add a** [**Time Requirement**](/custom-machinery-1.21/recipes/requirements/time.md) **to the recipe.**

```javascript
.requireTime("time")
```

* The `time` param must be a string that represents a time [Range](/custom-machinery-1.21/misc/range.md). 
* Look at the [time requirement](/custom-machinery-1.21/recipes/requirements/time.md) wiki page to know what to put here.

### Example

```javascript
ServerEvents.recipes(event => {

  event.recipes.custommachinery.custom_machine("custommachinery:power_crusher", 100)
  .requireTime("(,12000)")
  
})
```
