What it does

Items placed above a furnace are smelted at once, skipping the usual smelting time. The mod is a lightweight datapack that speeds up vanilla furnace operations, and the author describes it as suited to automated factory setups that need faster ore processing. An optional automatic pickup version of the behavior also exists, and it is still in beta.

Output can be inserted straight into the inventory or taken by hand, and an action bar message reports each item added. Smelting grants experience in the same way as vanilla smelting. The version 1 datapack is described as the more stable build across many game versions, while version 2 adds automatic inventory insertion and is noted as experimental, with possible item loss in edge cases and conflicts with other inventory-handling mods or datapacks.

The server needs the mod, while players may leave it out. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.13 – 1.20.6, and the latest build is V2+mod for 1.20.6. It is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Instant ore smelting

    Smeltable items placed above a furnace are converted immediately instead of waiting for the vanilla smelting time.

  2. Automatic inventory insertion

    In the version 2 build, smelted output is placed straight into the inventory, and the player still collects output manually in version 1.

  3. Experience from smelting

    Smelted items grant experience that mimics vanilla smelting rewards.

  4. Action bar notice

    An action bar message tells the player each time a smelted item is added to the inventory.
