[Crafting] More Copper Recipes
Java data pack listed for Minecraft 1.17–1.21. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
Adds more use to copper in crafting recipes where it is reasonable to use, such as crafters, powered rails, and hoppers!
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.

This pack makes copper slightly more useful by using it to craft powered rails, crafters, and hoppers.
- Hoppers are crafted with 2 copper ingots and 3 iron ingots
- Powered Rails use copper ingots instead of gold ingots
- Crafters are crafted with copper ingots instead of iron ingots
This pack is designed to be compatible with Advanced Recycling by blocking the smelting recipe for powered rails to gold nuggets
