Ex Alembico
by Foreck1
Ex Alembico is a Forge technology mod for 1.12.2 that adds alembic recipes, an alembic heater block and a configurable heat system.
What it does
Alembics are processing blocks in which items are combined, distilled, melted or transformed into new results. A heater placed under an alembic is fueled by supported fuel items, and its heat level can be selected from a slider, with off, low, medium and high settings. A dedicated button can hold the off state so fuel is kept inside the heater without being spent.
The mod is built for modpack makers, and recipes can be added in several formats and combinations. Recipes can also be scripted through CraftTweaker, and the heater's heat levels are defined by block state so that resource packs can change their models and textures. Built-in support for Zen and Foundry lets crucibles use the heater as a fuel-driven temperature source. The mod requires Forge and is published for 1.12.2 only.
Key features
Heat-controlled alembics
The alembic heater accepts fuel items and offers adjustable heat levels, so each recipe can depend on how hot the process runs.
Multi-output processing
Alembic recipes can split an input into separate liquids, distill it into a bottle or transform one item into another.
Second alembic tier
A nether alembic inherits the default recipes, adds its own and can improve the chance of bonus byproducts.
Scripted recipes
Recipes and fuel definitions can be added or changed with CraftTweaker, so pack makers control how items are processed.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Modpack alchemy
Pack makers can build a potion or medicine progression around the alembic, with recipes that depend on heat level and extra ingredients.
Foundry integration
Foundry temperature crucibles can use the alembic heater's fuel system, which helps mixed-machine setups share one heat source.
Who it’s for: Modpack creators and players who build alchemy chains on Forge for 1.12.2 will find the heater, the recipe formats and the scripting options most useful. The mod is designed primarily for modpacks, so single-player players who only want a few alembics can still use it on its own.
