Squish those grapes with your toes to make wine!

 

This here was my second ever mod, it's working and can be used and crafted ingame, but the animations never got fully finished. Feel free to test it out and even use it on your playthrough, as you can still use it as a 10x larger fruit press perfectly fine in survival.

I'm looking for a maintainer or someone interested in helping to redo and rebalance the mashing logic and Block Entity. I've got many other mods to do and want to pass this off onto someone or get it incorporated into another advanced fruit press or mashing mod. Checkout the github and I'm happy to annotate and walk anyone intersted in taking things over through my codebase.

How to use

  1. in an empty tub place a mashable item like honey or fruit into the tub and then jump on it several times.
  2. Take the resulting fluids out with a bucket.
  3. once the tub is empty of juice, you can grab the dry mash and use the tub again.

Add some localization and a recipe usable in survival.

Unfortunately I've moved onto other projects, and the honey issue won't be fixed anytime soon. 😭

Hello! Playing on 1.21.6 with my mates, this has been an absolute godsend from my spiral into insanity handling winemaking for four hungry alcoholics!

 

Hope you have a great day! B-)

i would be willing to see what i can do fixing this mod, but no promises as i haven't mastered my C# workflow on Linux yet.

also i have finals and a part time job coming up so those committments may take a bit of my time

Sure thing man, have at it. Source code is public so all you need to do is fork it. 

My discord is captanredbeard as well and you can find me in the main server as well as the Biodiversity one. Hit me up sometime and I can go over the parts of the mod that need to be reworked/re thought out. If you get something workable and want to keep the modID and releasing under this moddb page, I an give you edit perms on here once you have a working version for 1.22.

The_Ancients LIkely not, the code is a complete mess and I don't intend to remake this. 

I'm happy to show anyone else how they might get started updating it however.

 

The_Ancients, May 2nd at 1:11 AM

love this mod will it be updated to 1.22

If you leave the mash tub with juice and pressed fruit till the pressed fruit rots, right clicking it with a empty hand will crash the game

captanredbeard , Jan 16th at 6:07 PM

heh I'm looking for a maintainer at this point as I'm moving to other modding projects for the forseeable future. So likely not unfortunately.

 

owo It "should" work with 1.20 as well as 1.21. I don't think fruit press mechanics have changes between these game versions.

Could you please add compatability with xskills? So that you receive xp when trampling mash and get the bonus juice amount from the juicer skill in the cooking tab.

The 1.20.0 Release doesn't seem to work with 1.20.12 and is saying that it is game version 1.21.0 Depenedent 

captanredbeard , Dec 17th 2025 at 3:51 PM

Kunling thanks for the bug report, if you DM me the recipe on discord I can get it in the next mod version.

 

Unfortunately I'm not providing much in terms of bug fixes or updates to this, I mainly just posted it to allow for the community to mess around with it and in order to find a maintainer willing to continue Mash Tubs. Your issue with honey will likely remain unfixed until someone else comes around.

Sorry bout that.

Are you able to change the recipe so that it doesn't conflict with the trough?
I've had to change it manually for my server and everyone has to download it themselves and place it in the mod folder for it work.

On another note, when you mash honey in the tub and then right click the tub afterwards, it causes a crash to desktop. Doesn't happen with any other material, just honey

Does this have compatibillity with Wildcraft?

FatherSarge, Dec 6th 2025 at 7:08 PM

Good mod, found 1 error+suggestion

It is currently not craftable in survival, the recipe conflicts with the large trough. Here is my suggestion for the crafting recipe: https://imgur.com/a/Og8nTW6

32 planks, 4 wood slabs, 4 iron hoops, this makes the tub an upgrade over the fruitpress instead of a straight replacement for it.

captanredbeard , Dec 6th 2025 at 10:43 AM

TGerror RIght now it's just a bunch of planks, as it's a temp recipe

 

GalloViking glad you like it, I'm just hoping I can find someone willing to take over development of it.

GalloViking, Dec 6th 2025 at 8:58 AM

Damn! I've been wanting a larger fruit press for so long - I love the idea! 

TGerror, Dec 6th 2025 at 7:29 AM

hmm I like this idea and if it's cheap to make it will be extra good

brilliant
