How to make glass?
To make glass in Minecraft, you need sand, coal (or some other resource with which you can burn through sand, such as wood or charcoal), and a furnace. After setting up the furnace, we put sand on top, dug from the desert for example, and put coal on the bottom. When the arrow – the progress bar – fills up to 100%, we get a colorless glass.



Glass is in the form of a block, we can put it anywhere we want, but trying to extract it will destroy the block of glass and nothing will fall out of it. To extract a block of glass without destroying it, you must have a tool with the Silk Touch spell.
Putting glass into practice in the world of Minecraft
Glass can be used not only for decorative purposes, but you can also make some interesting and necessary items out of them. Here are some of them:
- Glass pane (6x glass)
- Glass bottle (3x glass)
- Coloured glass (1x Dye, 8x Glass)
- Magic Lantern (5x Glass, 1x Nether Star, 3x Obsidian)
- Daylight Detector (3x glass, 3x quartz, 3x wooden blocks)
- Borderline Crystal (7x glass, 1 ghast tear, 1x Ender’s eye)
The above items can not only add variety to the surroundings, but they are also helpful, such as a glass bottle. Thanks to it we can prepare potions and drink them during the expedition.
