Blaze & glaze
Blaze & glaze adds fire-themed furnaces that smelt faster than the vanilla versions, along with a fuel tool for keeping nearby furnaces supplied.
What it does
The mod replaces the standard smelting setup with a set of furnaces that process items at a higher speed, including one listed as 12.5 percent faster than the vanilla furnace. The Ash Furnace, Blaze Furnace and Ancient Gold Furnace each have double input and output slots, and they share the bulk smelting behavior. Smelting can occasionally duplicate a smelted item, with the chance kept modest.
A separate Fuel Pack holds up to seven fuel slots, and a smart device automatically supplies fuel to furnaces within reach, which suits semi-automated setups. The mod also includes a lightning weapon: a right-click consumes voltazite charges to summon lightning bolts, and a force field block can be placed to protect a project. Version 1.1.0 added the new weapon and these changes. The mod requires Curios API and is published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1, with the latest file dated 2025-07-12. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Both the server and every player need it, because it runs on client and server.
Key features
Faster fire-themed furnaces

A portable fuel store holds up to seven fuel slots and feeds the furnaces it is used with.
Lightning weapon

How it compares
TFMG Liquid Fuel Compat is an open source NeoForge add-on for 1.21.1 that runs on client and server under the MIT License, so it focuses on fuel rather than furnaces. Compressed Furnace is also NeoForge, under the MIT License, with files for 1.21 – 26.1.2 and the same client and server environment, but it is not open source. Automatic Smelt is a server-side component for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt covering 1.21.1 – 1.21.10, licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only.
