The Splash Milk
With The Splash Milk installed, players brew milk into Splash Milk Bottles, Lingering Milk Bottles and plain Milk Bottles that work like other potions.
What it does
The mod adds milk to the potion system. A milk bottle can be made by crafting three glass bottles with a bucket of milk in a shapeless recipe, and existing bottles can be upgraded in a brewing stand. Water bottles, awkward potions, mundane potions and thick potions can also serve as the base for brewing. Only one bottle of milk fits in the brewing stand at a time, because the stand keeps its original design.
Splash and lingering variants let players carry milk in a form that is easier to store and throw than a bucket. The mod targets players who want milk without hauling buckets, and it is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 17 release versions, 1.16.5 – 26.2. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The MIT License covers the code, which is open source, and the project's source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Splash milk bottles
A thrown splash bottle of milk creates a cloud effect, and the lingering variant leaves that cloud behind for a time.
Shapeless milk crafting
Three glass bottles and a bucket of milk make a milk bottle in any crafting grid arrangement.
Brewing upgrades
Existing bottles of water, awkward, mundane or thick potion can be upgraded with milk in a brewing stand.
One bottle per brew
The brewing stand accepts exactly one bottle of milk at a time, a limit the author has chosen to keep.
