Minecraft: How to Build and Use a Cauldron (Java and Bedrock Edition)

Despite being one of the most famous sandbox games out there, Minecraft is equally known for its variety. The game has a variety of items and resources that you can create, find or even mine. And although these items and resources have different goals, obtaining them is an important part of the game. This guide is for a resource you can create called the Cauldron. Although it can be used to store water, it can be used for many other purposes. So let’s check out this guide and see how to make and use a cauldron in Minecraft.

How to make a cauldron in Minecraft

Cauldron is a crafting material and you can craft it with a workbench. To make a Cauldron in Minecraft, you will need 7 iron ingots. Place these ingots in the workbench and then you will get a Cauldron for yourself. The creation process remains the same for Java and Bedrock users. However, it is used differently in both versions of Minecraft.

How to use the boiler

While you can only store water in the Java Edition, the Minecraft Bedrock version offers more variety with the cauldron. Here is how to use the Cauldron in Minecraft:

• The most important use of a boiler is to store water. You can fill three empty bottles with water from a full cauldron.
• While this is only available to Bedrock players, it’s still a nice addition. After you fill your cauldron with water, you can add dye to it to get dyed water. This is useful for adding color to a leather tunic.
• Available again for Bedrock players, you can also use the Cauldron in Minecraft to store potions. Also, adding arrows to this potion will give you even arrowheads.
• Another use of the cauldron is to transport it to the Nether. Since water evaporates in the Nether, you can use the Cauldron and get some water if you need it urgently.

This is all about how to create and use a cauldron in Minecraft.
