Smelting Plus is a simple data pack for Minecraft Java that allows for better recycling when you melt your found or crafted items. Instead of only receiving a gold or iron nugget, you will now receive an ingot.
Install this addon on your world easily and recover one ingot from each tool or armor. It is also possible to melt diamond and netherite items. Works with any furnace. Common or blast.
The time to melt diamond and netherite is longer than iron and gold.
