BetterFoods
by CrazyFox
BetterFoods extends cooking and baking with deeper mechanics, including a coffee recipe line, for Fabric and NeoForge.
What it does
The mod expands food preparation with more detailed baking mechanics and coffee-related content. It requires Fabric API on Fabric and runs on both client and server, so the server and every player need it installed. Builds are published for 1.21.8 and 26.1.2, with 1.0.10 as the latest beta file, and the project is All rights reserved and not open source.
