What it does

Players place the grinder with its handle on top, then feed it ore and a source of power, either by spinning the handle automatically or by turning it by hand. The grinder can also be used with an empty hand. Ground ores can be double output and the dust smelted in a furnace.

Recipes can be changed through a data pack, and the config file plaingrinder.toml adjusts many settings. JEI grinding recipes are fully compatible. Plain Grinder is published for Forge and NeoForge, runs on client and server, and is licensed under All rights reserved.
