How to Use the Built-In Potion Brewing Guide
Accessing the Brewing Chart
When playing on a survival server, remembering every potion recipe can slow you down when preparing for fights or Nether trips. With the SMP Utils Resource Pack active in your resource packs menu, you do not need to tab out of the game to check a recipe list.
1. Craft or locate a standard Brewing Stand and place it down.
2. Right-click the Brewing Stand to open its interface.
3. Look directly inside the brewing stand screen to find the built-in potion brewing guide displayed alongside the usual slots.
Brewing Potions Using the Interface
The on-screen guide shows you how to progress from basic awkward potions to specific effects and modifiers.
- Fuel and Base: Place Blaze Powder in the top-left fuel slot and up to three Water Bottles in the bottom slots.
- Follow the Chart: Match the ingredient icons shown on the built-in guide to the potion effect you want to create.
- Modifiers: Check the guide inside the interface to see which standard ingredients strengthen the potion, extend its duration, or convert it into a splash or lingering variant.
If you do not see the guide inside your Brewing Stand screen, open Options > Resource Packs and make sure SMP Utils is placed above any other GUI-modifying resource packs in the active right-hand column.
