by Runterya

Craftoholic adds fermentation, aging and distilling to Minecraft, with barrels, a copper distiller and recipes for wines, beers and spirits made from fruit, berries, sugar and yeast.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.5 – 26.2

What it does

Players fill a fermentation barrel with fruits, berries, sugar, yeast and water to brew different drinks. The fruit sets the color of the wine, so bright orange berries and mystic purple berries give visibly different results, and chorus fruit is included. An airlock block on top lets players watch the fermentation step.

Finished wine goes into an aging barrel, where its quality rises over time and makes the drink more valuable. Stronger spirits come from a copper distiller, which works with fuel and turns drinks into higher quality liquors. The alcohol level and quality of each drink are worked out from the ingredients put into it, and Fabric API has to be present for the mod to start.

Craftoholic is built for Fabric 1.21.5 and newer, and the author has tested it only on 26.1.2, so other versions may not work. The blocks drop themselves when mined correctly, which suits survival play. Roughly Enough Items (REI) is optional and shows the recipes, and its integration is noted as still working. The author states that the mod is a simulation and roleplay feature, and that alcohol is harmful to health in real life.

Key features

  1. Fermentation barrels

    A barrel takes fruit, berries, sugar, yeast and water, producing different drinks depending on the ingredients.

  2. Aging barrels

    Fermented drinks age over time inside a barrel, and the quality of the result increases the longer they age.

  3. Copper distiller

    A copper distiller turns drinks into stronger spirits, running on fuel to produce higher quality liquors.

  4. Airlock and recipe viewing

    An airlock block on top of the fermentation barrel shows the process, and REI displays the recipes when installed.
