Ever wondered how to get your Minecraft furnace up and running? You’re not alone! Let’s break it down simply.
So, you want to know how to make things sizzle in Minecraft by using a furnace, right? Well, you’re in the right spot to find out!
Quick Guide to Using a Furnace in Minecraft
First things first, you’ll need a furnace. You can make one by stacking eight cobblestones in the crafting table, leaving the middle square empty. Voila, you’ve got yourself a furnace!
Now, onto the fun part. To use your furnace, right-click it to open its menu. Place the item you want to smelt in the top slot and your fuel (like coal, wood, or charcoal) in the bottom slot. As the fire icon fills up, your item will transform, and you’ll find the smelted goods in the box to the right.
