Sick of not being able to crack an egg or empty a bucket of limewater into a barrel

[caffeine]

I've got two seemingly unrelated but probably very related problems (two screenshots attached):

1. I can't fully crack an egg into a bowl with A Culinary Artillery installed.
2. I can't empty a bucket of Limewater into a barrel of Limewater.

It's almost certainly because I have non-standard keybindings (two more screenshots attached), but dammit, I like using the the number pad + mouse buttons.   I used to have trouble with getting CarryOn to work, and that was also probably related as well, but the mod author changed something a year or two ago and that started to work.

Interestingly, I _can_ empty a bucket of water into a hole in a ground.  There's something different about emptying liquid into an object like a bowl or barrel that's fundamentally different than emptying the bucket into / onto the ground.

I see a lot of references to people who had the same problem, but they always fixed the problem by changing their keybindings.

Is there a way to keep my keybindings and be able to crack eggs and empty Limewater into a barrel?  What exactly is causing the problem in the first place?

AHA!   I see the problem.   You're a southpaw.   You should try resetting your keybinding to be right-handed.  

Just kidding.   I got absolutely no clue what the problem is.

Since you're using mods, have you tried stripping out everything but ACA and Expanded Foods, just to see if the problem still occurs? Likewise, try disabling all mods and then see if you can dump a bucket of limewater into a barrel of limewater in the vanilla game. If you can get the former to work, then you know there's a different mod interfering with ACA and EF, but if not, then you know it's an issue related to keybinds and those particular mods. If you can get the latter to work, then you know there's a mod issue, potentially with ACA and EF as the source of the problems, assuming you tested the limewater bucket with only those mods enabled.

That I don't know. If you can pinpoint exactly what's causing the problem, then you can report it to the correct party so the offending mod or vanilla code can be fixed. But aside from that, you may need to change your keybinds or stop using certain mods until the issue is resolved.
