Tutorials/Powder snow farming

 farming is the renewable obtaining of powder snow, a block useful for traps and technical purposes. As of version 1.17, it is only obtainable from s placed in cold biomes, where powder snow accumulates in the cauldron as it snows.

Materials needed

 * s, as many as possible.
 * s

A few key points

 * Powder snow accumulates only when it is snowing. However, sleeping resets the weather cycle, postponing the next snow time. Therefore, if the cauldrons are set up, the player should not sleep too often if they want to obtain powder snow, except for hopping in a bed periodically to prevent phantoms from spawning.
 * The requirements for powder snow accumulation is the same as ice formation: As long as the biome is cold enough to snow. Therefore, a good idea is to chain a powder snow farm next to an ice farm, so that both of these climate-dependent blocks can be farmed at once.
 * Some of the biomes do not snow on the surface, but they snow at higher altitudes. These biomes include the common-place and, the rare , as well as all of their variants. s only snow at sea level in certain local regions, where there is normal  covering the surface.
 * This means that if the player is going to stay in or close to a snowy or cold biome for a while, then a good option is to just set up the powder snow farm (as well as an ice farm) there. For a cold biome listed above, build a platform at higher altitudes where it is cold enough to snow, and place your cauldrons there. Powder snow will accumulate as long as the horizontal distance between it and the player is less than 128 blocks, so having a farm higher up won't affect its rates.

Manual Farming
First of all, you will need to find a place where it snows, as mentioned above. Place as many cauldrons as desired. Remember that in Bedrock Edition powder snow accumulates much faster than in Java Edition, so you will need less cauldrons. Now afk until snowing, and once the snow level in the cauldrons reach the top, you can harvest it using buckets. Make sure there is no solid blocks over the cauldrons.
