01 / UNDERSTAND THE NUMBERS
Ingredients in. Experience out.
For each completed crafting operation, the game adds the XP values of the resources actually consumed. A recipe that makes several items still gives one ingredient total. For example, one oak log makes four planks and awards 24 XP in total, not 24 XP for each plank.
Returned containers are deducted: a cake recipe does not consume its milk buckets permanently, so their empty-bucket value is subtracted. Recoloring an existing item does not award the full value of that item again. Shift-click crafting multiplies XP by the number of recipe operations actually completed.
These tables cover standard shaped and shapeless inventory/crafting-table recipes. Special operations such as repairing, banner duplication, maps and fireworks depend on the actual ingredients and are not fixed recipes. The same consumed-resource calculation applies where the server awards XP; non-consumed copied items are excluded. Furnaces, stonecutters, automatic crafters and smithing-table upgrades do not trigger the inventory crafting XP action.
