Potion brewing chart (most efficient recipes, excludes splash potions).
Brewing is the process of creating potions, splash potions and lingering potions by adding various ingredients to water bottles in a brewing stand.
Brewing potions
| Brewing recipe |
|---|
By placing one or more bottles in the lower three slots of the brewing interface, an ingredient in the upper slot, and blaze powder in the fuel slot, you can distill the ingredient into each bottle and brew potions which may be consumed to grant an effect to the player.
Every potion starts with a water bottle, made by filling a glass bottle at a water source or filled cauldron. Using blaze powder, the next step is to add a primary ingredient to create a base potion, which is usually Nether Wart, which creates an awkward potion and has no effects. By brewing a second ingredient into a base potion in the same manner, you can create a potion with a working effect. A third ingredient may be added to make the effect more intense or last longer, or turn the effect harmful. Gunpowder can be added to a potion at any stage to convert it to a splash potion, which can be thrown (or fired using a dispenser) to disperse its effect in a radius. Finally, dragon's breath can be added to a splash potion to convert it to a lingering potion, which can be used to disperse its effect in a bubble. Each brewing step takes 20 seconds.
Each blaze powder used as fuel provides 20 fuel points. It costs 1 fuel point to start brewing one ingredient; this fuel point is not recovered if the brewing is halted due to removing the ingredient or the potions being brewed into.

IngredientsBase IngredientsBase ingredients are the starting point of all potions. Nether Wart is the primary ingredient added to water bottles at this stage, as it is required to make most of the potions. Fermented Spider Eye allows making a Potion of Weakness. All other base ingredients do not allow making anything useful.
Secondary IngredientsSecondary ingredients imbue an Awkward Potion with a particular effect but do not alter potion duration or intensity. When added directly to a water bottle, any of these ingredients will produce a Mundane Potion (with the exception the golden carrot, which can't be brewed into a water bottle to make a potion).
ModifiersModifiers change the potion's properties. The "longer duration" and "more potent" versions of a potion can be forever interchanged.
Corrupting Effect: Fermented Spider Eyes will change a potion's base effect, often reversing it or producing a negative potion.
