- Blaze Rods
- Golden Carrots
- Redstone Dust
- Glass Bottles
- Brewing Stand
- Cauldron (optional)
- Water Bucket (optional)
These materials can be obtained through various means within the Minecraft world. Let’s take a closer look at each of them:
Nether Warts
Nether Warts are the key ingredient for brewing potions in Minecraft. They can be found in Nether Fortresses, which are usually located in the Nether biome. To gather Nether Warts, you will need to explore the fortress and look for Nether Wart farms. Harvest the fully grown Nether Warts by breaking them, and collect as many as you can.
Blaze Rods
Blaze Rods are another essential ingredient needed for brewing potions. They can be obtained by defeating Blazes, hostile mobs found in Nether Fortresses. Blazes will drop Blaze Rods when defeated, so be prepared with weapons and armor when facing them. Collect a sufficient amount of Blaze Rods for your brewing needs.
Golden Carrots
Golden Carrots are used to create the Potion of Night Vision, which is a prerequisite for brewing the Potion of Invisibility. To make Golden Carrots, you will need Carrots and Gold Nuggets. Placing a Carrot in the center square of a crafting table and surrounding it with eight Gold Nuggets will yield one Golden Carrot. Create enough Golden Carrots for your brewing process.
Redstone Dust
Redstone Dust is required to extend the duration of your Potion of Invisibility. It can be found by mining Redstone Ore blocks deep underground. Once mined, you will receive multiple units of Redstone Dust. Collect enough Redstone Dust to prolong the effects of your invisibility potion.
Glass Bottles
Glass Bottles are used to contain and store potions. To make Glass Bottles, you will need Glass, which can be crafted by smelting Sand in a Furnace. Arrange three Glass blocks in a “v” shape in the crafting table to obtain three Glass Bottles. Prepare an adequate number of Glass Bottles to hold your potions.
Brewing Stand
The Brewing Stand is the item used to brew potions in Minecraft. It can be crafted using three Cobblestones and one Blaze Rod. Place the Cobblestones in a “u” shape in the crafting table, leaving the center square empty, and place the Blaze Rod in the middle to create the Brewing Stand. This will be your essential tool for brewing the invisibility potion.
Cauldron (optional)
The Cauldron is an optional item that can be used to hold water for multiple uses. It can be crafted using seven Iron Ingots. Arrange the Iron Ingots in a “u” shape in the crafting table, leaving the center square empty. Having a Cauldron can save you time by storing water for multiple brewing sessions.
Water Bucket (optional)
If you choose not to use a Cauldron, you can use a Water Bucket to collect water for brewing. Simply right-click on a water source, such as a lake or pond, with a Bucket to obtain a Water Bucket. This will provide you with the necessary water for brewing potions.
