🎒 Ore Pouch
Tired of placing dozens of furnaces and waiting for your iron and gold to smelt after a long mining session? Ore Pouch is a lightweight, vanilla-friendly Quality of Life (QoL) mod that adds a portable smelting bag to your game. It allows you to instantly process raw ores into ingots directly in your inventory, keeping your mining trips efficient and fast.
✨ Features

- Intuitive GUI: Uses a familiar, vanilla-style interface.
- Shift-Click Support: Fully supports smart Shift-clicking for rapid item transfer between your inventory and the pouch.
- Early-Game Friendly: The crafting recipe is simple and accessible from the first days of your survival.
