Crop & Kettle Data Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I get started with Crop & Kettle?
Craft "The Craft of Cooking" book by placing wheat and a normal book in a crafting table, then open it to see available recipes. As you gather ingredients and cook meals, the cookbook will automatically unlock new dishes and show you the steps needed to prepare them.
Where do I find the new crops?
Seven new wild crops spawn naturally across different biomes in your world. Search around and look for plants growing in their natural state, then harvest them with your hands or a tool to collect seeds for replanting.
What's the scythe tool for?
The scythe is a specialized harvesting tool that lets you quickly gather mature crops from large farm fields much faster than breaking blocks by hand.
How do I use the cutting board?
Place a cutting board down and interact with it to prepare raw ingredients like meat and milk into portioned forms. This lets you save supplies by using only what you need for each recipe.
What does the distiller do and how long does aging take?
The distiller brews special beverages that gain stronger buffs as they age over time. Leave your drinks in the distiller and check back periodically—the longer they sit, the more powerful they become.
Can I see what meals I've already cooked?
Yes, the custom advancement tree tracks your cooking progress and shows which dishes you've unlocked. Open your advancements menu to view your culinary achievements.
Why aren't system messages showing up in my cookbook?
Use the command `/function dcf:on` to automatically hide system messages while you're reading the cookbook, making it easier to focus on recipes.
How many different meals can I make?
The mod adds over one hundred different meals ranging from light snacks to large feasts, giving you plenty of variety to explore and cook.
What kitchen blocks do I need to cook?
Essential blocks include the cutting board for preparing ingredients, mixing bowls, cooking pots, and a distiller for brewing beverages. Place these down in your kitchen and interact with them to prepare meals.
Does this mod work with other mods or datapacks?
Crop & Kettle is designed as a data pack, so compatibility depends on whether other mods or packs modify the same game mechanics. Test it in your world to see if conflicts arise, and use the admin panel command `/function cnk:admin_panel` if you need to troubleshoot.
