Description

Completely replaces Minecraft's recipe book with a smarter, more useful alternative. No more digging through cluttered recipe lists or manually crafting intermediate materials.

What It Does

Open your inventory, crafting table, or any furnace and click the recipe book button. Instead of the vanilla recipe book, you'll get a clean interface that actually helps you craft.

The main idea: If you have the raw materials to make something (even through multiple crafting steps), this mod shows it as craftable and handles the intermediate crafting for you.

Features

Smart Recipe Display

  • Grid-aware filtering - In your inventory (2x2 grid), you only see recipes you can actually craft there. At a crafting table (3x3), you see everything.
  • Real craftability - Recipes show as craftable when you have the materials, even if you need to craft intermediate items first.
  • Usage tracking - Recipes you craft frequently appear first.

One-Click Complex Crafting

Want to craft a lantern but only have iron ingots, logs, and coal? The mod figures out the full chain - ingots to nuggets, logs to planks to sticks, sticks and coal to torches, then finally the lantern - and handles it all when you click.

  • Calculates the full crafting tree automatically
  • Identifies what intermediate items you need to make
  • Executes each crafting step in sequence

Furnace Support

Works with all furnace types, showing only relevant recipes:

  • Furnace - All smelting recipes
  • Blast Furnace - Ores and metal items only
  • Smoker - Food items only

For smelting recipes with multiple valid inputs (like Gold Ingot from ore, raw gold, or deepslate ore), the preview shows all options.

Recipe Preview

Click any recipe to see:

  • All required ingredients with quantities
  • Alternative ingredients where applicable
  • Scroll through recipes with many input options
  • Click ingredients to jump to their recipes
