Brewing

Introduction

Unlike in vanilla Minecraft, brewing is not as easy as adding an ingredient to a brewing stand and waiting for it to finish.

Depending on the recipe the whole process can be difficult and time consuming. Some recipes may need a high precision when it comes to ingredients or any other step in the process. If one step was not good enough, the quality of the potions may suffer, leading to side effects like bad alcohol and other toxics.

Depending on the recipe, some steps may not be needed, the following instruction describes the common procedure of brewing.

Fermenting

Step one consists of Fermenting the fresh ingredients:

  • Step 1: Place cauldron over a fire or other heat source
  • Step 2: Fill it with water
  • Step 3: Add ingredients with right click
  • Step 4: Wait a few minutes while they ferment
  • Step 5: Fill in glass bottles

Use a clock on the cauldron to get the amount of time the ingredients have been fermenting.

Distilling

Keep in mind that some recipes do not require distilling.

  • Step 1: Put the bottle with fermented content into the brewing stand
  • Step 2: Put glowstone dust as a filter on top of the brewing stand (The filter will not be consumed)

Aging

A barrel is needed for aging.

Minecraft barrel | 6 Slots
Minecraft barrel

The Minecraft barrel can be used for aging of a few brews. Simply craft and place the barrel then put the brews inside.

Small barrel | 9 Slots
Small Barrel Side
Small Barrel Front

Use 8 wooden stairs to build a barrel shape as shown above.

Place a sign on the lower right side and write " Barrel " in the upper line. A message "Barrel created" should appear.

Big barrel | 27 Slots
Big Barrel Side
Big Barrel Complete

Use 4 fences, 16 wooden stairs, and 18 wooden planks to build a barrel shape as shown above. Attach a spigot(5th fence) and a sign that has "Barrel" written on it in the upper line as shown above.

Message "Barrel created" should appear

You may remove the sign from the Big Barrel after creating it.

Using the barrel
  • Open the barrel by clickin on it
  • For every Minecraft day, the brews will age a year
  • Depending on the recipe, the type of wood used for building the barrel may alter the quality of the age brew
  • The Minecraft barrel is alwats of wood type: Oak
  • The barrels can be locked by using /lock or /cprivate on the sign of the barrel.

Drinking

The Amount of alcohol inside the brew will be applied to the player when drinking. Depending on the quality of it, that may have different effects.

  • The player may not be able to walk normally anymore, he will weave, making it almost impossible to walk straight
  • Effects like Blindness, Confusion, Poison etc. occur
  • The chat will be altered depending on drunkeness, many things players write may be incomprehensible, sometimes it seems senseless
  • If the alcohol particularly strong, it may have poisonous effects
  • After drinking a lot, there is a chance of vomiting
  • When logging off, the player may have difficulties reaching his character, thus some logins shortly after may be denied
  • After overdrinking the player may faint (disconnect)

Getting Sober

After drinking it takes a while until the alcohol is completely gone. During that time the alcohol level is steadily decreasing. Also it can be decreased through the consumption of coffee.

  • When logging off extremely drunk, it may happen that, if the player logs back in after a while, he may find himself at a completely unknown place in the middle of nowhere having no idea how he got there
  • But if he logs back in after some hours or next morning, he will find himself at /home, again without any memories
  • Also if the alcohol was not of best quality, the player may face some bad type of hangover (slowness and hunger)

Recipes

Some recipes are more difficult to master, others rather easy. That's also why some of the recipes here are kept a bit more vague.
