Composter

Breaking

Composters can be broken using any tool, though an axe is the fastest. The composter does not retain the compost inside; instead, it drops empty.

Any Wooden Slab

Usage

Composters can be used to recycle a selection of food and plant items into bone meal. To do so, the player must use any of a selection of items on the composter. When an adjacent comparator is facing away from the composter, a comparator signal strength of up to 8 is emitted depending on the fullness of the block.

Composters appear to have an empty interior. As such, entities can enter and exit a composter through the top, but not the sides or bottom. The composter has a "floor", whose height depends on the fullness. When the composter is completely empty, this floor is slightly above the block below, and when it is completely full, there is a slight dip on top. In Bedrock Edition, when the composter’s fullness increases, any entities inside are pushed up accordingly.

Composting

The composter can be filled with compost, which is done by adding compostable items to it. When successfully adding an item, a green particle (👁 Image
) appears. The table below lists supported items, which have different composting chances. The higher the percentage of an item, the more likely it is for it to add another layer of compost. However, when the composter is empty, any compostable item added always creates the first layer of compost, regardless of its usual composting chance.^[1] Each layer of compost has a podzol-like appearance. When the composter reaches the 7th layer of compost and once 20 game ticks (1 second) have passed, the compost changes appearance indicating that bone meal can be collected by using the composter a final time or by breaking the composter.

The following table shows the items that can be used in a composter, the percent chance for an item to add a level of compost, and the average number of items needed to fill a composter. Smaller pieces (individual pieces of wheat, melon slices, etc.) produce more compost than the blocks or other items that can be made from them. The exception is cookies, because each recipe produces 8 cookies, and together those give more than 3 times the compost.

Despite being plants, it is not possible to compost bamboo,^[2] dead bushes,^[3] poisonous potatoes,^[4] chorus plant products,^[5] and golden plant items.^[6] Meat items, fish, and bones are also not compostable.^[7]

Using with a composter while holding a debug stick will raise the level by 1, and the debug stick is not consumed.

The average number of items to complete compost can be calculated with the formula , where x is the compost chance of the given item (with 0.3 and 1 corresponding to 30% and 100% chance respectively), and y is the average number of items to complete compost. The average compost yield per stack of 64 can be calculated by simply dividing 64 by y.^{[note 1]}

Profession

Main article: Job site block

If a composter has not been claimed by a villager, any nearby unemployed villager has a chance to change their profession to farmer and claim the composter as their job site block. Also, farmers can use composter to compost, and use the derived bone meal to grow crops.

Redstone component

Hoppers

Composters can interact with hoppers. A hopper directly below a composter pulls bone meal from it. A hopper or dropper facing downward directly above a composter pushes items into it. See Hopper § Redstone component for more details.

Hoppers cannot interact with the sides of a composter.

Fuel

A composter can be used as fuel in a furnace to smelt 1.5 items.

Issues

Issues relating to "Composter" are maintained on the bug tracker. Issues should be reported and viewed there.

Trivia

The compost texture is based on the podzol texture.
If planting crops specifically for composting, potatoes produce somewhat more than beets, carrots, or wheat. However, melons offer nearly the same yield per field space, and do not require replanting after harvest.

Notes

↑ ^a ^b ^c Values for "average number of items to complete compost" and "average compost yield" do not align with composting chance because the first layer always fills (MC-196452).
