Description

If you've ever wanted to get better returns from smelting down old gear, you should try this data pack. It includes the following recipes:

  • All recipes are 10s in a Furnace, and 5s in a Blast Furnace.

If you're using my Fast Furnaces data pack, there's a separate version of this pack that includes compatibility with it, called Better Faster Gear Smelting. Make sure you put BFGS above Fast Furnaces, since they replace the same default recipes.

Supports Minecraft 1.15 - 26.3. Mod support is not planned.
