Ever wondered how you can use a furnace in Minecraft? It’s one of the game’s basic yet essential tools. Let’s break it down simply.

Using a furnace in Minecraft is like having your own mini factory where you can cook food and melt things down. Sounds cool, right?

Steps to Use a Furnace in Minecraft

First, you’ll need to craft a furnace. Grab eight cobblestones and arrange them in a square shape in your crafting table, leaving the middle square empty. Voila, you have a furnace!

Now, place your furnace on the ground. Right-click it (or tap on it if you’re playing on mobile) to open its menu. You’ll see two slots. Put the item you want to cook or smelt in the top slot. In the bottom slot, put your fuel (like wood, coal, or charcoal). Then watch the magic happen!
