This article is about the furnace. For smelting processes and recipes, see Smelting.

The main point of a furnace is to smelt things. Smelting requires fuel - usually coal or charcoal, and an object to be smelted. Pop those in the furnace and you'll see a progress bar for the smelting process which, when completed, yields a new object. Be careful which fuel you choose, because some are more efficient than others.

Duncan Geere[1]

A furnace is a block used to smelt blocks and items and convert them into other blocks or items.

Obtaining

Furnaces can be mined using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it will drop nothing. A furnace will also drop when a minecart with furnace is broken.

Natural generation

Two furnaces can be found inside each blacksmith shop in villages, and one can be found inside each igloo.

Furnaces also generate in weaponsmith houses in plains villages, inside some houses in snowy tundra villages, in some desert village houses, in taiga and snowy taiga village houses.​[upcoming Lua error in Module:Version_link at line 117: attempt to concatenate local 'text' (a nil value). & BE Edition 1.10]

Furnaces can also be found inside snowy tundra village house chests.​[upcoming Lua error in Module:Version_link at line 117: attempt to concatenate local 'text' (a nil value).]

A furnace has a block entity associated with it that holds additional data about the block.

  • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] Block entity data
    • Tags common to all block entities see Template:Nbt inherit/blockentity/template[show]
    • [Short] lit_time_remaining: Number of ticks left before the current fuel runs out.
    • [Short] cooking_time_spent: Number of ticks the item has been smelting for. The item finishes smelting when this value reaches 200 (10 seconds). Is reset to 0 if lit_time_remaining reaches 0.
    • [Short] cooking_total_time: Number of ticks it takes for the item to be smelted.
    • [Short] lit_total_time: Represent the total time the furnace should be lit.
    • Tags common to all objects that can be renamed see Template:Nbt inherit/nameable/template[show]
    • [NBT List / JSON Array] Items: List of items in this container.
      • [NBT Compound / JSON Object]: An item in the furnace, including the slot tag:
        Slot 0: The item(s) being smelted.
        Slot 1: The item(s) to use as the next fuel source.
        Slot 2: The item(s) in the result slot.
    • Tags common to all containers that can be locked see Template:Nbt inherit/lockable/template[show]
    • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] RecipesUsed: Which recipes have been used since the last time a recipe result item was manually removed from the GUI. Used to calculate experience given to the player when taking out the resulting item. Is not preserved when removed.
      • [Int] recipe ID: How many times this specific recipe has been used. The recipe ID is the identifier of the smelting recipe, as a resource location, as used in the /recipe command.

Trivia

  • Furnaces function as multiple devices combined into one block: bloomeries and blast furnaces (for smelting ores), an oven (for baking and cooking), a charcoal pit (for the charring of wood) and a kiln (for baking of clay).
  • Cats will often sit on top of active furnace
