Description
Recipes do not, by default, support NBT data. Hardcoding support for potion and enchantment recipes would allow them to be transmuted. Enchanted books (and possibly other enchanted items?) will release their enchantments when dissolved, according to enchantment recipes described in JSON. The essentia gained will be multiplied by a factor based on the enchantment's level (1, 2, 4, 7, 11, ... is one possible plan). Potions will also release essentia based on their effects. Enchantments can be applied to books by using a book in place of materia in the Synthesis Table, with an enchanted book or enchantment formula in the target slot. Potion effects can be applied to water bottles by using a water bottle in place of materia in the Synthesis Table, with a potion or potion formula in the target slot.

Art of Alchemy is now being maintained by a different team in a new repository. Please use https://github.com/Cumulus-Mods/Art-of-Alchemy/issues/4 for further discussion on this issue. Thank you.

try looking into NBT crafting for this, and I mean Siphlor's mod called that

I'm aware of this mod, but I think I'm going to take a different approach for gameplay reasons.
