Found a recipe? Craft it on your own Minecraft server.

Data directly from the Java Edition game files (26.3). Recipes with special logic, such as firework rockets with a firework star, banner copying, or armor dyeing, are only stored there as a special type without a fixed ingredient list and are therefore not included, nor are the armor trims from the smithing table.

Expected result

What this tool shows you

For each item, you get the exact recipe from the Java Edition game files: the crafting grid with all ingredients and quantities, plus the total raw materials needed across the entire production chain. Three examples with real values (version 26.3):

Example 1 · Recipe book

Input: Beacon

Result: a shaped crafting-table recipe that yields 1 item. Here is the 3×3 grid (row by row):

Crafting grid
Glass
Glass
Glass
Glass
Nether Star
Glass
Obsidian
Obsidian
Obsidian

Ingredients: 5 × Glass, 1 × Nether Star, 3 × Obsidian.

Total raw materials: 5 × Glass, 3 × Obsidian, 1 × Nether Star.

With “Calculate furnace products backwards” enabled, the total becomes: 5 × Sand, 3 × Obsidian, 1 × Nether Star.

Example 2 · Reverse search

Input: Redstone Dust

Result: all recipes containing the ingredient—23 in version 26.3.

For example: Block of Redstone, Clock, Compass, Copper Bulb, Crafter, Detector Rail …

Click any recipe to open it; a filter separates crafting table, furnace, stonecutter, and smithing table recipes.

Example 3 · Resource calculator

Input: 2 × Piston + 1 × Hopper

Result: all the resources you need for the entire order:

  • 8× Cobblestone
  • 7× Iron Ingot
  • 4× Oak Log
  • 2× Redstone Dust

Intermediate products like planks are counted as logs; leftover items from crafting are also used.

How it works

How to find any Minecraft crafting recipe

No download, no login — search for an item, check its recipe, and add it to the calculator.

Step 1

Search for item

Enter an item's name in German or English, such as Leuchtfeuer or Beacon, and select your Minecraft Java version.

Step 2

Read recipe

View the crafting grid or the furnace, stonecutter, or smithing table recipe, including all ingredients and quantities. Click an ingredient to open its recipe.

Step 3

Use reverse search

Switch to reverse search and choose an ingredient such as Redstone Dust. You’ll see all recipes that use it and can filter the list by recipe type.

Step 4

Calculate raw materials

Add items to the resource calculator to get the total resources needed for the entire production chain.

Recipe types

Minecraft recipes by station

Not every recipe uses a Crafting Table. The tool also shows recipes for the Furnace, Blast Furnace, Smoker, Campfire, Stonecutter and Smithing Table.

Crafting Table

3×3 grid for most items. Shaped recipes require a fixed pattern; shapeless recipes only require the right ingredients. In version 26.3: 1,234 recipes.

Furnace

Smelts ores, sand, and clay and cooks food. Requires fuel; 10 seconds per item. In version 26.3: 73 recipes.

Blast Furnace

Smelts ores and metals twice as fast as a furnace: 5 instead of 10 seconds per item. In version 26.3: 25 recipes.

Smoker

Cooks food twice as fast as a furnace: 5 instead of 10 seconds per item. In version 26.3: 9 recipes.

Campfire

Cooks food slowly (30 seconds per item), but uses no fuel and handles multiple items at once. In version 26.3: 9 recipes.

Stonecutter

Cuts stone, bricks, and copper into stairs, slabs, walls, and variants. In version 26.3: 351 recipes.

Smithing Table

Upgrade armor, tools, and weapons to netherite using a smithing template, diamond item, and netherite ingot. In version 26.3: 12 recipes. Armor trims are not included.

Potions are brewed at a Brewing Stand and are not among the recipes in this tool. You can find brewing recipes in the Minecraft Potion Chart.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about crafting recipes, the recipe book, and resources.

For Java Edition 26.3, the tool contains 1,713 fixed recipes from the game files: 827 shaped and 407 shapeless crafting recipes, 351 stonecutter recipes, 116 furnace, blast furnace, smoker, and campfire recipes, and 12 smithing table recipes. Version 1.19.4 had 1,076.

Craft a Beacon at a crafting table using a 3×3 grid: place glass across the top and on both sides of the middle row (5 pieces total), a Nether Star in the center, and a row of obsidian at the bottom (3 pieces). Total materials: 5 Glass, 3 Obsidian, 1 Nether Star. The Nether Star drops from the Wither — that's the hardest part.

For a shaped recipe, the ingredients must match the pattern shown in the crafting grid (mirroring is allowed), as with a beacon or pickaxe. For a shapeless recipe, only the ingredients matter—not their positions—as with bone meal or flint and steel. The tool marks shapeless recipes with “Any order.”

Enter an ingredient, such as Redstone Dust, and the tool lists every recipe that uses it — even if it is just one of several accepted alternatives, such as “any planks.” In version 26.3, 23 recipes use Redstone Dust. Use the filter to narrow the list by recipe type, such as crafting table, furnace, stonecutter, or smithing table.

The calculator breaks down each item using its standard Crafting Table recipe until only raw materials remain. It rounds each crafting operation up to a whole batch (3 planks require 1 log because one batch produces 4 planks) and uses leftover items in other steps. For ingredients such as “planks”, it uses the default wood type, oak. Items from the Furnace (Glass, Iron Ingots) remain raw materials; you can use a toggle to break them down into Sand or Raw Iron instead. Example from version 26.3: The total for one Anvil is 31 Iron Ingot. Copy the finished list with one click.

Search for items by their English or German name or by item ID, such as “beacon” or “anvil”. On the German page, the tool displays German item names; in all other languages, it displays the English names from the game. Other languages for item names are not currently available.

Recipes, quantities, and item tags are read directly from the official game files (server and client JARs) for each Java version, and German and English names from the language files—not copied from a wiki. Available versions: 26.3, 1.21.11, 1.21.4, 1.21.1, 1.20.4, 1.19.4. The data applies to Java Edition; some recipes differ in Bedrock Edition. Recipes with special logic, such as firework rockets with a firework star, banner copying, and armor dyeing, are only stored in the files as a special type without a fixed ingredient list, and the game works them out itself. They are therefore omitted, but the simple firework rocket made from paper and gunpowder is included. Armor trims do have their own smithing table recipes in the files (one per smithing template), but the tool only takes the netherite upgrades from the smithing table.

Open the recipe book using the book button in the crafting menu. Recipes unlock when you first have a matching ingredient in your inventory. On a server where you have operator permissions, /recipe give @s * unlocks all recipes at once, and /recipe take @s * removes them again. This tool lets you see every recipe immediately, even if you haven't unlocked it.
