How to Make Mud in Minecraft

Make a Mud block by using a Water Bottle on a Dirt block. The water soaks the dirt and turns it into Mud.

You'll need

  • 1× Dirt
  • Water Bottle

Station / tools

  • Glass Bottle (to fill with water)

Yields: 1 Mud per Dirt block

Step by step

  1. 1

    Fill a Water Bottle

    Use a Glass Bottle on water (or a cauldron) to get a Water Bottle.

  2. 2

    Use it on Dirt

    Aim at a placed Dirt block and use the Water Bottle. The Dirt converts into a Mud block and the bottle empties.

Tips

  • Place Mud over a Pointed Dripstone and it drains into Clay over time.
  • Craft Mud with Wheat to make Packed Mud, then smelt or craft that into Mud Bricks.
