A furnace is a utility block used for the smelting of blocks and items.

Obtaining

Natural generation

One furnace generates in every igloo.

Furnaces can be found in plains, desert, and some savanna village weaponsmiths. Furnaces also generate in some houses in snowy tundra villages, and in one of the taiga/snowy taiga‌[BE only] village houses.

Breaking

A furnace can be mined using any pickaxe. A furnace will also drop all of its contents when broken. Mining without a pickaxe takes 17.5 seconds.

In Java Edition, a furnace mined without a pickaxe drops nothing. In Bedrock Edition, a furnace drops itself when mined by hand or with any tool.

The lit furnace can be obtained in Java Edition only with commands such as /give @s minecraft:furnace{BlockStateTag:{lit:"true"}}, although it does not appear lit in the inventory. In Bedrock Edition, the lit furnace block can be obtained only by inventory editing. It always stays lit, despite containing no items.

Usage

Furnaces cannot be pushed by pistons in Java Edition.

Custom name

By default, the GUI of a furnace is labeled "Furnace", but this name can be customized by naming it in an anvil before placing it, or by changing the CustomName tag using the /data command‌[Java Edition only].

Lock

In Java Edition, a furnace can be "locked" by setting its Lock tag using the /data command. If a furnace's Lock tag is not blank, the furnace cannot be opened unless the player is holding an item with the same name as the Lock tag's text. For example, to lock a furnace at (0,64,0) so that the furnace cannot be opened unless the player is holding an item named "Furnace Key", use /data merge block 0 64 0 {Lock:"Furnace Key"}.

Note Blocks

Furnace can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass drum" sound.

Trivia

  • Furnaces function as multiple real-world devices combined into one block: bloomeries and blast furnaces (for smelting ores), ovens (for baking and cooking), charcoal pits (for the charring of wood) and kilns (for baking of clay).
  • Tamed cats often sit on top of lit furnaces.
  • A lava bucket is the most effective fuel to use, smelting 100 items, although a block of coal is the best renewable fuel, smelting 80 items.
  • In Bedrock Edition, the lit furnace block was legitimately obtainable by mining a furnace that is smelting an item while the pickaxe has Silk Touch. When highlighted in the inventory its name was 'lit_furnace'.
