Usage

Composters can be used to produce bone meal. To do so, the player must use any of a selection of items on the composter.

Levels

When an item is used on the composter, the bottom of the composter’s appearance will sometimes turn from plank-like to podzol-like, which is the first level of composting. The podzol-like bottom will sometimes get higher with each use. The chance that using the composter with an item will increase the level of it varies between items and their value. For example, kelp has a chance of 10%, meaning that if it is used on the composter it will add a new level only 10% of the time, with the composter consuming the kelp but not taking any action the other 90% of the time. There are a total of 7 levels of composting. After the maximum level is reached, white marks will appear on top of the compost indicating that bonemeal can be collected. When right clicked it will produce a single bone meal, which will pop off.

Hoppers

Composters can interact with hoppers by placing a composter on the upper side of a hopper and producing bone meal from the composter, which will cause the bone meal to go through the hopper and if there is a container under it such as a chest, furnace, or another hopper, it will end up there (see Hopper § Redstone component for more details about hopper-specific mechanics). Hoppers cannot be drawn into the sides of composters.

'''Flint''' is a mineral obtained from [[gravel]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Mining ===
When a block of [[gravel]] is mined, there is a 10% chance for a single piece of flint to drop instead of the [[gravel]] block. When mined with a [[Fortune]]-enchanted tool, this chance increases to 16% at Fortune I, 25% at Fortune II, and 100% at Fortune III. Gravel mined using a tool with [[Silk Touch]] or gravel that fell on a non-solid block never produces flint.

=== Trading ===
Novice-level [[Trading#Fletcher|fletcher]] [[villager]]s have a 50%{{only|bedrock}} or {{frac|2|3}}{{only|java}} chance to offer 10 pieces of flint for 10 blocks of gravel and an [[emerald]].

=== Chest loot ===

{{LootChestItem|flint}}

== Usage ==
=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Trading ===
Apprentice-level fletcher villagers buy 26 flint for an emerald.

Apprentice-level leatherworker villagers have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to buy 26 flint for an emerald {{in|java}}, and always offer the trade {{in|bedrock}}.

Journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a {{frac|2|5}} chance to buy 30 flint for one emerald in ''Java Edition'', and always offer the trade in Bedrock Edition.

Journeyman-level weaponsmith villagers buy 24 flint for an emerald.
