The Grinding Table - Biomass

by happyfied

The Grinding Table - Biomass adds a grinding recipe set to The Grinding Table, so food, eggs and sculk can be turned into a new Biomass item.

What it does

The add-on works with The Grinding Table, which is required, and adds 20 recipes that take new inputs. Raw and cooked meat, poisonous potatoes, spider eyes, rotten flesh, eggs and frogspawn, along with sculk blocks other than shriekers and catalysts, can be ground into Biomass. The Biomass item is then used in crafting the Grinding Table itself, so the table is what feeds the chain.

The data pack must be placed above the TGT Datapack in the load order, otherwise the recipes do not load. Composting is also part of the design, letting players route some of the inputs through a composter first. The mod is inspired by the bio fuel approach used in Mekanism.

The server requires the mod, while clients can leave it out and still join. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, with files for 26.3 and the 1.21.4 – 26.3 range. The code is under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license, and it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Biomass grinding recipes

    Twenty recipes turn meat, potatoes, spider eyes, flesh, eggs and sculk into a Biomass item.

  2. New crafting item

    Biomass becomes an ingredient for crafting the Grinding Table, linking the add-on to the base mod.

  3. Composting route

    Some inputs can be composted before grinding, giving players a second path to the same output.

  4. Full recipe list

    The author publishes the complete list of Biomass grinding recipes for reference.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Players who already use The Grinding Table and want more ways to produce Biomass from food and mob drops. Server owners who want the recipes available to every player on their world need to install it on the server.

Questions

Does The Grinding Table - Biomass need another mod?

Yes. The Grinding Table is required, and the add-on only adds recipes to it.

Does the client need the mod installed?

No. The server must run it, while players may leave it out.

Why must the data pack be placed above TGT Datapack?

The author says the recipes do not work otherwise, so the pack has to load before TGT Datapack in the load order.
