How To Make Glass In Minecraft
A house with all blocks and no windows in Minecraft can be a little dreary, so why not add some light with a few windows? While you can always just eliminate some blocks in different parts of your base and call it a day, the better route is to add Glass for a more realistic touch. Of course, Glass isn’t freely available in Minecraft and requires a specific crafting process, which you can see in detail below.
Making Glass in Minecraft
Fortunately for anyone about to build their first base, Glass is one of the simpler blocks to get in Minecraft. All it requires is a furnace, some coal or another heat source, and Sand blocks. The exact recipe for Glass is shown below.
To make a single Glass block, you simply need to smelt a Sand block using a furnace, and that’s it. As you might have guessed, Sand blocks are most commonly found by and underneath water as well as in the desert biome. It’s almost as common as dirt if you’re looking in the right area, so you should have zero issues procuring a solid amount of Sand. Then, you just need to have enough coal or other heat sources to sustain the furnace to make all the Glass you want.
