Extinguishing a Campfire
Three methods exist for extinguishing a Minecraft Campfire:
- Water Bucket: The simplest method involves using a water bucket to douse the flames. Pour the water onto the Campfire block.
- Splash Water Potion: A more resource-intensive approach (requiring gunpowder and glass) utilizes a Splash Water Potion. Throw the potion onto the fire.
- Shovel: The most economical and often overlooked method is using any shovel (even a wooden one). Right-click (or use the left trigger on consoles) on the Campfire with the equipped shovel.
Obtaining a Campfire
Acquire a Campfire through these methods:
- Natural Generation: Campfires naturally spawn in Taiga and Snowy Taiga villages, and within camps in Ancient Cities. Note: Harvesting a pre-placed Campfire requires a tool with the Silk Touch enchantment; otherwise, you'll only receive coal (two in Java Edition, four in Bedrock Edition).
- Crafting: A straightforward crafting recipe uses sticks, wood, and either charcoal or soul sand. The latter ingredient determines whether a regular or soul fire Campfire is created.
- Trading: Trade emeralds with an apprentice-level fisherman. The cost is five emeralds in Bedrock Edition and two in Java Edition.
