I’ll admit, I’m a sucker for quirky, efficient mechanics. That’s exactly what I discovered when I tried Cauldron Mud Mod. Instead of gathering mud through tedious dripping or digging tricks, I simply tossed dirt into a water-filled cauldron and watched mud form instantly. It was simple, clever, and completely immersive.

Perks That Made Me Smile

What’s neat about this mod is how intuitive it feels. Just fill up a cauldron with water, toss in any type of dirt, and collect the mud block right away a small tweak with surprisingly satisfying payoff. On Modrinth, it’s listed as both a mod and a data pack, compatible across Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt covering basically all my favorite modding platforms.

On the official DirkoCraft Wiki, it notes how traditional mud creation is a drag water bottles on dirt and this mod drastically simplifies that.

Plus, being compatible with Vanilla Tweaks and utility libraries, it’s a tiny mod that fits smoothly into my modpack without drama.
