What it does

Potion Cauldron brings a feature from Bedrock Edition into Java Edition. A player right-clicks a cauldron while holding a potion to store up to three bottles of the same potion. Holding arrows and right-clicking a cauldron crafts tipped arrows from the stored potion.

Any entity that stands inside a cauldron holding a potion receives that potion's effect. The mod also generates cauldrons in swamp huts. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt, covering game versions 1.20 – 26.3, under the MIT License, and the project is open source. Client and server both need the mod. Fabric and Quilt builds require Fabric API and a Quilt library respectively, while Forge builds need no extra library. An optional configuration screen is available on Fabric and Quilt.
