Compressed Barrels
by xiaxin113
Compressed Barrels lets a player combine five barrels and four iron ingots into a single storage block that holds 186 stacks.
What it does
The mod is a Storage addition for Forge. Its one craft turns five barrels and four iron ingots into a compressed barrel with much larger capacity than a plain barrel. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Builds exist for 1.16.5 and 1.18.2, and the latest file, v1.2.0, targets 1.18.2. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source.
