The OGs probably know this already, but... TIL: You can 'hot swap' items between your hotbar and crafting grid.

Ok, so I'll probably explain this badly but it's not difficult to do.

If you open your crafting grid, and use your mouse to highlight one of the grid spaces, you can press 0-9 and it'll swap that item from your hotbar into that crafting grid space.
Pressing the number again will return it to that hotbar slot. Pressing a different number, while still highlighting the same crafting grid space, and it'll swap it for that toolbar slot item allowing you to effectively sort your hotbar from the crafting grid.

As the title says, maybe the OG players probably know this already, but it was a nice find. To be fair, not sure how much I will use it as my muscle memory is now set, but I might see if it helps when mass crafting.
