InstantBrew

Lightweight control over brewing stands: how fast potions brew, optional infinite blaze-powder fuel, and smarter shift-clicking for blaze powder. Config hot-reloads—no server restart.

---

Summary

InstantBrew runs on Paper, Spigot, and Folia (Minecraft 1.21+). Tune brew-delay-ticks from instant to any delay you want, optionally stop blaze powder from being consumed while keeping the fuel bar full, and choose whether shift-click places blaze powder in the ingredient slot. Use /instantbrew reload after editing config.yml.

Showcase

Instant brewing and infinite blaze powder

With the default near-instant delay, potions finish as soon as you add an ingredient. Enable blaze-powder-infinite so the fuel bar stays full and blaze powder is not consumed.

Configurable brew delay

Set brew-delay-ticks for a slower brew (e.g. 20 = 1 second, 200 = 10 seconds). The brewing arrow animates over that time before potions complete.

Features

• Configurable brew delay — Ticks until brew completes (0 ≈ instant, 20 = 1 second)
• Infinite blaze powder — Optional: full fuel bar, no powder consumption
• Shift-click to ingredient — Optional: shift-click blaze powder into the ingredient slot instead of fuel
• Hot reload — /instantbrew reload applies config without restarting

---

Installation

1. Put InstantBrew-1.0.0.jar in your server’s plugins folder (use the shadow JAR from Building—it bundles bStats).
2. Start the server once so plugins/InstantBrew/config.yml is created.
3. Edit the config to taste, then run /instantbrew reload.
