📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 347 endorsements and over 800k downloads—clearly a mod people trust.
  • Solves a real annoyance: no more hoarding empty bottles or losing them when you craft.
  • Tiny, focused utility that does exactly what it says without bloat.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only works at Alchemy Labs—you can't recycle bottles anywhere else.
  • No option to choose which potions to discard; it's all or nothing per interaction.
  • Requires the base game and may need a mod manager for easy installation, but no explicit dependencies listed.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim alchemists who hate wasting bottles and want a clean way to recycle. Also great for hoarders who end up with piles of useless potions. Skip if you never craft or if you use mods that already give you infinite bottles.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install and manage this mod easily.
  • Remember that you can only recycle at an Alchemy Lab, so plan your inventory management around those locations.
  • If you're using other alchemy overhaul mods, test this mod in a new save to ensure no conflicts.
