This article is about the GUI system for crafting. For the item, see Knowledge Book.
πŸ‘ Image
The crafting recipe book, as it appears in the Java Survival inventory screen.

The recipe book is a mechanic in Minecraft that serves as a catalog of recipes and as a crafting, smelting, and banner patterning guide.

Java Edition

[edit | edit source]

The recipe book can be displayed in inventory, crafting table, furnace, blast furnace and smoker. The player must enter the GUI and press the knowledge book icon; the recipe book then opens to the left.

Recipes are stored in several different tabs:

Crafting Table and Inventory
Furnace
Blast Furnace
Smoker
πŸ‘ Image
Interacting an item in the recipe book shows all the patterns.

Clicking on an item in the list displays its recipe in the grid. The item can then be crafted if the materials are available; otherwise, the button containing the item is highlighted red. Each click shows alternate patterns for the same crafting recipe, if there are several patterns (for example, each click on a banner crafting recipe shows all the possible banners using different colored wools). Right-click on the item shows all the alternate patterns.

Shift-clicking an item in the list puts all available materials in the crafting grid.

The button in the top right corner of the recipe book toggles between "Show all" and "Show craftable"; the latter displays only recipes for which the player has the necessary materials in their inventory. The top-left corner also contains a search bar to further narrow the list.

There are also recipes for campfires and stonecutters, but they don't have a recipe book interface.

Tabs for specific categories can be hidden from the recipe book if there are no known recipes for that particular tab, but the search tab is always visible even if there are no known recipes.

Bedrock Edition

[edit | edit source]

The recipe book can be displayed in the inventory, crafting table, furnace, blast furnace, and smoker in Survival mode. The player must enter the GUI, which opens the book by default.

Crafting

[edit | edit source]

Crafting recipes are stored in several different tabs. The tabs contain matching items from each tab of the Creative inventory, so an item found in a particular tab in Creative can be found in its equivalent tab in the recipe book, should it have a recipe.

The tabs are as follows:

  • πŸ‘ Image
    Construction - contains building materials.
  • πŸ‘ Image
    Equipment - contains tools, weapons, and armor.
  • πŸ‘ Image
    Items - contains ore items and miscellaneous things.
  • πŸ‘ Image
    Nature - contains nature-related materials and food.
  • All - contains every unlocked recipe, with a search bar to filter on name.

Clicking on an item in the list puts all available materials in the crafting grid, displaying the recipe. The item can then be crafted if the materials are available; otherwise, the button containing the item is highlighted red. Right-click on the item automatically crafts it, and pressing crafts all items based on how many materials the player have in the inventory.

The button in the top right corner of the recipe book toggles between "All" and "Craftable"; the latter displays only recipes for which the player has the necessary materials in their inventory.

Smelting

[edit | edit source]

Smelting recipes are stored in tabs similar to crafting recipes, but these cannot be found in the Creative inventory.

The tabs are as follows:

  • πŸ‘ Image
    Food - contains food items.
  • πŸ‘ Image
    Blocks - contains building and decorative materials.
  • πŸ‘ Image
    Items - contains miscellaneous items.
  • All - contains every recipe, with a search bar to filter on name.

Clicking on an item in the list puts all available materials in the top smelting slot. The item can then be smelted if the materials are available; otherwise, the button containing the item is highlighted red.

The button in the top right corner of the recipe book toggles between "All" and "Smeltable"/"Smokable"; the latter displays only recipes for which the player has the necessary materials in their inventory.

Unlocking

[edit | edit source]
πŸ‘ Image
The toast that pops up when new recipes are unlocked.

The player must unlock recipes before using them in the recipe book. Recipes are unlocked upon meeting certain criteria; while for most recipes, one must hold a specific item, there are a few exceptions (for instance, boats are unlocked by touching water, whereas chests are unlocked after filling ten inventory slots). Once a recipe has been unlocked, the player is alerted of it via a notification that appears in the top right-hand corner of the screen, and the recipe becomes accessible through its relevant interface (inventory, crafting table, furnace, et cetera).

By default, the player does not need the recipes to craft a specific item; if they know a recipe without it being unlocked, they can insert the required items into the interface manually. However, if doLimitedCrafting is set to true, a recipe must be unlocked in order to craft a specific item at all.

Recipes can be granted or retracted by force, either through use of the /recipe command or a knowledge book.

In Bedrock Edition, if recipesUnlock is set to false while creating a world, the player can view all recipes.
