About this Mod
Moar Charcoal Datapack
Do you ever feel like charcoal is completely useless? Well, not anymore. This datapack adds an abundance of recipes to smelt things into charcoal, making it something you'll incorporate into your usual Minecraft playthrough.
How It Works
In a furnace, you can put in anything that seems like it would burn, along with fuel, and it will smelt into charcoal. From planks to bamboo to an elytra, you'll be smelting your old tools and excess blocks into fuel that you can use in the future.
Why This Matters
More Use Cases: Charcoal is an easy resource to get, instead of coming from a costly one log per piece. Now, virtually anything wooden can be smelted into a better source of fuel.
Get Rid of Old Things: Instead of throwing away wooden tools and excess planks, they can be turned into charcoal and smelted into a renewable fuel.
Compatibility
Works in 1.21+

Intended Experience
This datapack is made for players who want to use charcoal more and add plenty of ways to get it.
