Cocoa Beans



Cocoa Bean is a material used in Dye-making, introduced in the Beta 1.2 update. It has a dark brown texture and can be used to color wool. Jeb tweeted that he "removed one of the minecraft dyes." This was presumably the brown dye; however, it hasn't been technically removed, as it's a fully functional item in the game. There's simply no way to acquire it in-game without mods or using an inventory editor. Cocoa beans look like a "Red wool" and "Bone meal" texture put together, and colored various shades of brown.
