About Cauldron
A cauldron is a small storage block for liquids. You can fill it with water, lava, or powder snow using a bucket, then scoop the liquid back out. It fills in three stages, which makes it handy for redstone: a comparator gives a signal of 1, 2, or 3 depending on how full it is.
Key facts:
- Holds water, lava, or powder snow in three fill levels.
- Comparator output matches the fill level.
- A water-filled cauldron can wash dye out of leather armour.
It is mostly a utility block, but it is useful for compact liquid storage and simple fill-level signals.
How to get Cauldron
You can craft a cauldron from seven iron ingots arranged in a U shape at a crafting table. That means three ingots across the bottom row and two ingots on each side above.
Cauldrons can also be found in a few structures, such as witch huts and igloo basements. Crafting is the reliable way to get one, but it is worth grabbing a cauldron if you spot one while exploring.
