While individual potions may be obtained in other ways, such as drops from Witches, or found as treasures in chests, brewing is the most reliable way to obtain any type of potion.
Before you can begin brewing your own potions, you will need a handful of items and equipment that are necessary to brew potions. These include the following:
Item / Equipment | Use |
---|---|
![]() |
Handles the actual brewing. |
![]() |
Fuels the brewing stand. |
![]() |
Used as a base ingredient for most potions. |
![]() |
Container for Potions. |
![]() |
Used to fill up Glass Bottles to turn them into Water Bottles. Required as a starting point for all potions. |
Once you have these items and equipment ready, you can start out by preparing the base for each potion.
Each step of the Brewing process will require the Brewing Stand and fuel in the form of Blaze Powder. To begin brewing your first potions, start by adding up to 3 Water Bottles at the bottom of the Brewing Stand. Each Water Bottle can become its own potion.
With the set-up complete, almost every potion starts by brewing a Nether Wart into the Water Bottles. Place a Nether Wart at the top of the Brewing Stand and wait until it gets brewed into the Water Bottle creating an Awkward Potion.
Once the Awkward Potion is ready, you may now brew in an effect ingredient that will determine the buffs the potion will provide. Below is a list of Ingredients and the different effects each potion will produce.
Ingredient | Effect | Resulting Potion |
---|---|---|
![]() |
Speed |
![]() |
![]() |
Jump Boost |
![]() |
![]() |
Instant Health |
![]() |
![]() |
Poison |
![]() |
![]() |
Water Breathing |
![]() |
![]() |
Fire Resistance |
![]() |
![]() |
Night Vision |
![]() |
![]() |
Strength |
![]() |
![]() |
Regeneration |
![]() |
![]() |
Slowness, Resistance |
![]() |
![]() |
Slow Falling |
![]() |
After the effect ingredient is brewed into the Awkward Potion, you should now have an Effect Potion. Drinking it will buff (or debuff) your character with its effect.
However, enhancer ingredients can further alter the effects of the Effect Potion. Learning to take advantage of these enhancers will bring your potions to a whole new level.
Ingredient | Enhancement |
---|---|
![]() |
Extends the duration of a Potion's effects. Cannot be used with Glowstone Dust. |
![]() |
Improves the effect of a Potion. Cannot be used with Redstone Dust. |
![]() |
Corrupts the effect of a Potion. |
![]() |
Converts a Potion into a Splash Potion. Splash Potions are thrown instead of drunk and provide the effect to every mob nearby. |
![]() |
Converts a Splash Potion into a Lingering Potion. Lingering Potions allow a Splash Potion's effects to linger where it was thrown, allowing for more players/mobs to be affected. |
