Useful Stacks
by notenlish
Useful Stacks raises the stack limit for many items, so stews, eggs, buckets and other stackables hold more per slot on a Fabric server.
What it does
Useful Stacks changes the maximum stack size of a set of items: many stacks grow from 16 or 64 to larger counts, and some items that normally do not stack are made stackable. The list covers stews and soups, signs in several wood types, snowballs, eggs, ender pearls, honey bottles, saddles, ghast harnesses, boats in wood types and bamboo rafts, buckets filled with water, lava or powdered snow, cake and spyglasses.
The mod runs on Fabric and requires Fabric API. Only the server needs it, so players join without installing anything. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, and its source code is public. Files target 26.1.2 and 26.2, and the latest build is 1.0.1 for 26.2, published on 2026-07-31. The first release came out on 2026-07-24.
Key features
Larger stack sizes
Many items move from the usual 16 or 64 per slot to bigger counts, so storage holds more of them.
Stackable normally unstackable items
Items such as stews, boats and buckets are made to stack, reducing the number of slots they fill.
Signs and hanging signs
Signs in each standard wood type and hanging signs can be stacked together in inventories and chests.
Throwables and food
Snowballs, eggs, ender pearls, honey bottles and cake are included in the stacking changes.
