Remove Moss from Stone

by notblue

Remove Moss from Stone lets players strip moss from mossy cobblestone, mossy stone bricks and the other moss variants by smelting them in a furnace.

What it does

Removing moss is done in a furnace: each mossy cobblestone, mossy stone brick or related variant is smelted once and returns its plain form. The process takes about a quarter of the time a normal smelt needs, uses one item of bamboo as fuel for every item processed, and gives the player a small amount of experience for each block cleaned. The mod is useful for builders who want clean stone walls without hunting for moss-free blocks in the world.

Remove Moss from Stone is a data pack with its own loader builds, so it can be added to servers as well as to Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt clients. Only the server has to run it for moss removal to work, while a player may join without it. Builds cover 1.20 – 26.3, with the latest file, 1.6+mod for 26.3, dated 2026-10-12. The code is under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license, so it is not open source, and redistribution of a modified pack must keep the same license.

Key features

  1. Moss removal in a furnace

    Mossy cobblestone, mossy stone bricks and their variants are smelted into their plain forms in a standard furnace.

  2. Faster processing

    Each removal takes about 25% of the time a regular smelting recipe needs, which keeps large builds practical.

  3. Experience for cleaning

    Players receive experience points for each moss item removed, as with other smelting recipes.

  4. Bamboo fuel

    Each item removed uses a single piece of bamboo as fuel, so the cost of cleaning stone stays low.

How it compares

Full comparison

Waffle's Moss targets the same moss blocks, but its files cover 1.20.1 – 1.21.4 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and it is a client and server mod under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. Brick Variety is a Fabric, Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.16.5 – 26.2 that needs both sides running it and is under All rights reserved, so it adds new bricks rather than removing moss. Handyman is needed on the server, with the client optional, runs on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.21.5 – 26.2, and is under All rights reserved, not open source.
