Mud is a surprisingly versatile block<\/a> for building, but its rarity leaves it often overlooked. Thankfully, there is a way to create mud that isn\u2019t found in the crafting book. Today, we explain step by step how to make mud in Minecraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of Minecraft 1.21, mud blocks are exclusive to the Mangrove Swamp biomes<\/a> and Trial Ruins structures. Mangrove Swamp biomes are a very rare Swamp biome variant, while the Trial Ruin structure can generate just below the surface in a few biomes, including Jungle, Old Growth Birch Forest, Old Growth Pine Taiga, Old Growth Spruce Taiga, Snowy Taiga, and Taiga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Make Mud Blocks in Minecraft<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mud is not made on a crafting table in Minecraft. Instead, players can create it by filling a glass bottle<\/a> with water and then right-clicking dirt, coarse dirt, or rooted dirt. Alternatively, a dispenser can be used to shoot water bottles out onto dirt, coarse dirt, or rooted dirt to create it automatically in redstone contraptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mud Recipes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mud can be used to craft muddy mangrove root blocks and packed mud blocks. The first is created by placing a mud block and a mangrove roots block on a crafting table of any size. Meanwhile, the packed mud block<\/a> is made by placing a mud block and a piece of wheat on a crafting table of any size. Packed mud blocks can then be turned into mud bricks, which offer a complete stone block set, including walls, stairs, and slabs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While not technically a recipe, mud also serves as the only way to \u201ccraft\u201d clay. However, much like the mud block itself, this is not done on a crafting table. Instead, clay is created from mud blocks by placing a pointed dripstone on the bottom of the mud. It will gradually drain the water drip by drip, turning it into clay. The clay itself then acts as your standard clay block<\/a> that would otherwise have been found in the overworld.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
