What is Superior Smelting?

Superior Smelting is an expansion of Minecraft's vanilla smelting mechanics. Ever thought that a golden chestplate smelting down into a single gold nugget was a ripoff? Well, now you get an ingot! Have you ever bulk crafted an inventory full of diamond helmets on accident? Now you can smelt some of those down in the blast furnace to get your diamonds back! Or have you ever wanted to smelt a cobblestone stair into a stone stair? Well now you can do that, too! And, of course, there's built-in compatibility for all your favorite mods!

See below for a closer look into the two main features:

⛏️Metal Smelting

Save Space

Smelt your raw ore blocks DIRECTLY

smelting raw gold iron and copper blocks into normal blocks

Melt Back Into Ingots (or nuggets)

Get something out of your junk.

In general, if the item is crafted with 3 or more ingots, you get an ingot back.

Otherwise, you get a nugget.

Various Inspirations

Burning moss off of stone is directly inspired by the Remove Moss from Stone datapack. If you just want this feature, I suggest checking it out. It also supports lower MC versions than I do currently.

notblue also made several other metal recycling and stone shortcut datapacks that I took ideas from. Highly recommend checking them out.
