Brewing Stand

The Brewing Stand is a utility block used to brew potions by combining water bottles with various ingredients. It is essential for potion-making and is commonly used to create beneficial and harmful potions. A Brewing Stand is crafted using 1 Blaze Rod and 3 Cobblestone in a 3×3 crafting grid. It also generates naturally in churches within villages, end ships, igloos with basements, and some bastion remnants. In villages, it serves as the job site block for cleric villagers.

To use a Brewing Stand, the player must tap on it to open the interface. The top slot holds the ingredient, the bottom three slots hold water bottles, and the fuel slot requires Blaze Powder to activate the brewing process. Each Blaze Powder provides fuel for 20 brewing operations. Potions are brewed by adding ingredients in a specific order. Nether Wart is commonly used as a base ingredient to create Awkward Potions, which are then modified with other ingredients to produce different effects. Additional ingredients such as Redstone, Glowstone Dust, Gunpowder, or Dragon's Breath can further enhance, extend, or modify potion effects.

A Brewing Stand can be mined with any tool, but pickaxes break it the fastest.
