Installing Yeast ‘n Feast takes only a few minutes. You need a working Minecraft Forge 1.20.1 installation. This page walks you through downloading every file, placing it correctly, and confirming the mod loaded successfully.

Requirements

Before you start, make sure you have the following:
RequirementVersionNotes
Minecraft Java Edition1.20.1Other versions are not supported
Minecraft Forge47.3.5 or newerDownload from the Forge project page
JEI (Just Enough Items)15.8.2.26Strongly recommended for in-game recipe browsing
Yeast ‘n Feast is built for Minecraft 1.20.1 only. It will not load on 1.20, 1.20.2, or any other version, even if Forge is installed.

Installation steps

1

Install Minecraft Forge 1.20.1

Download the Forge 1.20.1 installer (version 47.3.5 or newer) from the official Forge project page. Run the installer and select Install client to create a new Forge profile in your Minecraft launcher. Launch the game once with the Forge profile to generate the mods/ folder inside your .minecraft directory.
2

Download JEI (recommended)

JEI is strongly recommended for browsing recipes in-game. Download the JEI .jar for Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge (version 15.8.2.26) from CurseForge or Modrinth by searching for “Just Enough Items”. Make sure you select the Forge variant and the correct game version. The mod works without JEI, but discovering Keg and Cheese Press recipes will require consulting this documentation instead.
3

Download Yeast 'n Feast

Download the Yeast ‘n Feast .jar file from CurseForge or Modrinth. Search for “Yeast n Feast” and select the release matching Minecraft 1.20.1 Forge.
4

Place all .jar files in your mods/ folder

Copy every downloaded .jar file into your mods/ folder. You can find this folder at:
  • Windows: %appdata%\.minecraft\mods\
  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/mods/
  • Linux: ~/.minecraft/mods/
If you are using a modpack launcher such as CurseForge App, Prism Launcher, or ATLauncher, place the files in the instance’s own mods/ folder instead of the default .minecraft one.
5

Launch the game and verify

Start Minecraft using the Forge 1.20.1 profile. On the main menu, click Mods and confirm that Yeast ‘n Feast appears in the list. Then load or create a world, open Creative Mode, and look for the Yeast ‘n Feast tab in the creative inventory. If the tab is present, the mod loaded correctly.
If the game crashes on startup, check the latest.log file inside your .minecraft/logs/ folder. Version mismatches between mods are the most common cause.

Optional mod integrations

Yeast ‘n Feast detects three other mods at runtime and unlocks additional content when they are present. None of these are required.
ModWhat it unlocks
Farmer’s DelightGarden Soup, Ginger Tea, and Spiced Flatbread
HexaliaChillberries Jam, Frostgale Mead, Sunfire Tomato Bruschetta, and Stuffed Mandrake
Farm and CharmStrawberries Jam, Maple Rye Pancakes, and Elderberries Oatmeal
Install any of these companion mods by placing their .jar files in the same mods/ folder. Yeast ‘n Feast detects them automatically — no extra configuration is needed.
See the Mod Compatibility section for a full breakdown of what each integration adds.
