Minecraft:Furnace

A furnace is a Minecraft:block with two functions: it can be used for either smelting or Minecraft:cooking, by placing fuel and an appropriate Minecraft:item inside together.

Obtaining

Breaking

A furnace can be picked up using any Minecraft:pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it does not drop itself.

Furnaces drop their contents when broken, including XP from processed items that were extracted by hoppers.

Natural generation

Furnaces can be found in plains, desert, and some savanna village weaponsmiths. Furnaces also generate in some houses in snowy village, and in one of the taiga and snowy taigaTemplate:Only village houses. They can also generate in ancient cities and trail ruins, and one furnace generates in every igloo.

Crafting

The lit furnace can be obtained in Template:Editions only with commands such as Template:Cmd, although it does not appear lit in the inventory. in Template:Editions, the lit furnace block can be obtained only by inventory editing. It always stays lit, despite containing no items.

Usage

Furnaces cannot be pushed by Minecraft:pistons in Template:Editions.

Processing items

{{#vardefine:params|2 }}Template:Hatnote

File:Furnace GUI.png

Interface for the furnace in Template:Editions.

The purpose of a furnace is to process items by heating them up in order to change them into other items. Its interface can be opened by pressing the {{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}use item button on it. A fuel source (up to one stack of fuel items) is placed in the bottom slot, and the items to be processed (up to one stack) goes in the upper slot. A furnace runs at a speed of one item every or six items per minute.

The number of items that a fuel source can process depends on the type of fuel. As soon as the process begins, the fuel slot is decremented immediately, and that unit of fuel starts burning. The fuel continues burning until fully consumed, regardless of whether the upper slot has any items remaining to process. For example, a piece of coal burns for 80 seconds and can process eight items, but if only one item is processed (or if the item is pulled out before the process is complete), the coal still continues burning for the full 80 seconds, wasting seven items’ worth of processing. After it burns out, no additional fuel is decremented from the fuel slot if the upper slot is empty. If the fuel slot is empty and the burning fuel is consumed before an item completes processing, the process stops, the item is unchanged, and the process must be restarted with new fuel.

Lit furnace

Furnaces emit a light level of 13 when active, as well as smoke and flame particles.

Custom name

By default, the GUI of a furnace is labeled "Furnace", but this name can be customized by naming it in an Minecraft:anvil before placing it, or by changing the CustomName tag using the

Template:Redr commandTemplate:Only.

Lock

in Template:Editions, a furnace can be "locked" by setting its lock tag using the

1. REDIRECT Template:Command

Template:Redr command. If a furnace's lock tag is not blank, the furnace cannot be opened unless the player is holding an item that matches the item predicate in the lock tag. For example, to lock a furnace at (0,64,0) so that the furnace cannot be opened unless the player is holding an item named "Furnace Key", use Template:Cmd.

Note blocks

A furnace can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.

Trivia

• Furnaces function as multiple real-world devices combined into one block: bloomeries and blast furnaces (for smelting ores), ovens (for baking and cooking), charcoal pits (for the charring of wood) and kilns (for baking of clay).
