Brew Queue

Brew Queue is designed as an addon to the normal brewing stand, not a replacement for it. The familiar brewing area stays in the middle, so it still feels like the same block you already know how to use.

What changes is everything around it:

• a built-in storage column on the left for brewing supplies
• a recipe program column on the right for saved ingredient steps
• compact automation toggles at the top

The result feels like a vanilla brewing stand that finally grew up.

Every Brew Queue stand gets its own 27-slot reserve inventory. That means you can keep the ingredients for repeated brewing runs right inside the stand instead of juggling chests, shulker boxes, or your own inventory every time.

Great for storing:

• nether wart and other brewing ingredients
• glass bottles for fresh runs
• blaze powder for fuel
• a water bucket for automatic bottle refills
• backup ingredients for multiple brewing sessions

This makes a single brewing stand feel more like a self-contained workstation instead of a block that constantly needs external help.

The nine recipe imprint slots let you save the order of ingredients for a potion chain. Click each step into the program from top to bottom, and Brew Queue will remember the sequence for that stand.

That means you can set up runs like:

• awkward potions into speed potions
• speed potions into extended speed potions
• splash or lingering upgrade chains
• any other step-by-step brewing path you use often

You can repeat ingredients, leave unused steps blank, and adjust the program whenever you want.

This is the heart of the mod.

Once automation is enabled, Brew Queue handles the boring part of brewing for you:

• it refills the stand for a full three-bottle run
• it waits for the correct moment to feed the next ingredient
• it continues through the programmed recipe step by step
• it finishes the whole batch instead of stopping after one ingredient

This makes potion brewing feel smooth and deliberate instead of repetitive. Set up the sequence once, keep the stand stocked, and let it work through proper batches.

Brew Queue is built around real batch brewing, not one-off single bottle micromanagement.

When the stand is ready for a fresh cycle, it can pull from its internal storage and prepare another three-bottle run automatically. Keep the storage filled with bottles and a water source, and the stand is ready to keep going.

That makes it especially useful for potion rooms where you want a stand to stay productive instead of constantly waiting on manual reset steps.

The stand still behaves like a brewing stand should. Blaze powder is still the fuel, and the vanilla fuel behavior stays familiar.

Brew Queue adds convenience on top of that:

• extra blaze powder can be kept in the internal reserve
• hoppers can keep the stand supplied
• if the fuel slot is full, overflow blaze powder can still be stored for later use

You get less micromanagement without losing the normal feel of brewing.

Brew Queue shines in automated brewing rooms.

You can use hoppers to:

• feed ingredients and bottles into the stand's reserve inventory
• keep blaze powder stocked
• pull finished potions out from below once a run is complete

This makes it easy to build a brewing corner that stays stocked, finishes complete batches, and hands the results off to your storage or sorting system with minimal player input.

Want a stand that only runs when your system says so? Brew Queue includes a redstone gate toggle.

You can:

• leave automation free-running for a simple always-on setup
• require redstone power so the stand only works while powered
• wire it into timing systems, item lines, or room-wide control panels

It is a small feature, but it opens the door for much smarter brewing rooms.

Brew Queue does not leave you guessing about what the stand is doing.

The screen shows:

• whether automation is on
• whether redstone is required
• what step the stand is currently on
• whether it is brewing, refilling, exporting, waiting, or paused

If something is missing, blocked, or incompatible, the stand tells you instead of silently failing.

Brew Queue is there to help, not to lock you out of the brewing stand.

You can still:

• use the brewing stand manually
• change the recipe program whenever you want
• step in and rearrange supplies
• decide whether a stand should be a fully automated station or just a smarter manual one

That flexibility makes it easy to use in early-game bases, late-game automation rooms, and everything in between.

Brew Queue is especially good if you:

• brew the same potions over and over
• like tidy, purpose-built utility rooms
• want potion automation without replacing the vanilla stand with a giant machine
• build hopper-fed brewing stations
• want brewing to feel smoother without feeling less like Minecraft
