Update 0.14.0 |
A Cauldron is a Block that can hold more Water and Potions than Bottles. They were added in Update 0.14.0.
Obtaining[]
Cauldrons are primarily obtained by Crafting, however, they can also spawn in Witch Huts and Igloos. Cauldrons in Witch Huts hold Potions which Witches use and Cauldrons in Igloos contain water.
Crafting[]
- 7 Iron Ingots => 1 Cauldron
Usage[]
The different stages of fullness
A Cauldron takes three Bottles of Water, a Water Bucket, or three Potions to fill. In turn, a full Cauldron can fill three Bottles. Water in a Cauldron can be colored with Dye. Cauldrons can also be filled with Rainwater. They can also be used with Redstone Comparators because the comparator has an output depending on how much water is in the cauldron.
Bedrock Exclusive: Leather Armor and Leather Horse Armor can be dyed through Cauldrons. Each time 1/6 of the dyed Water in the Cauldron is used.
Bedrock Exclusive: Arrows can also be tipped in Cauldrons containing Potions to create Tipped Arrows.
Trivia[]
- Despite being made of Iron, it can be mined with a Wooden Pickaxe.
- As of Update 0.15.0, Players and Mobs are able to stand in Cauldrons and Hoppers and Items can be dropped inside them.
- If the Player catches on Fire, Water in Cauldrons can extinguish it, using 1/6 of a whole Container each time.
- This can be useful in the Nether since the Player can only put Water in Cauldrons.
- Cauldrons will let light through, but they reduce the strength by 2 levels.
