I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Adds crafting recipes to revert items to their basic materials. Theres a total of 562 new crafting recipes.
Too many items to sort? No problem! Simply craft it back to its original material!! Unlock the recipes by crafting a knowledge book, which is crafted with a book and an emerald.

Blasting Recipescant see these in game but they work i swear
- blast copper, iron, gold, diamond, and netherite armor (horse and nautilus too!) to get ingots back rather than nuggets.
- blast oxidized & waxed copper items to bring it back to its original stage (golems and copper chests too!) (you can also craft the original stage back into copper ingots)
- blast polished or smooth blocks to unpolish them
- blast cracked blocks to uncrack(?) them
- blast (some) brick blocks (not Bricks, like stone bricks) into their base block
- blast concrete back into concrete powder!
basically when in doubt pop it in the blast furnace it might do something tbh
