BreweryX guide
BreweryX adds a second brewing system to Minecraft. Instead of crafting an ordinary potion, you prepare ingredients, boil them in a cauldron, and—depending on the recipe—distil and age the result.
Before you beginRecipe requirements are defined by the server. The recipe book here describes the published defaults, not a guarantee that LunoriaMC has left every default unchanged.
What you need
- A heat source and water-filled cauldron for the boiling stage.
- The exact ingredients and quantities listed for your chosen recipe.
- A glass bottle to collect the brew.
- A brewing stand with glowstone dust if the recipe requires distillation.
- A correctly built barrel if the recipe requires ageing.
Understanding quality
Many recipes show three names separated by slashes: Bad result / Normal result / Good result. Your final quality depends on following the recipe's timings and processing steps accurately. Higher recipe difficulty means less tolerance for timing errors.
| Recipe field | What it means |
|---|---|
| Ingredients | Required items and quantities, such as Wheat/6. |
| Cooking time | Real-world minutes the ingredients must boil. |
| Distillation runs | How many distilling cycles are required. Some recipes use none. |
| Distillation time | Time per distillation run, in seconds, if specified. |
| Wood | Required barrel wood type. A value of 0 means any wood. |
| Age | How long the brew must age, measured in BreweryX's in-game ageing units/years. |
| Difficulty | Accuracy required to reach good quality, from 1 (easier) to 10 (harder). |
| Alcohol | Configured alcohol points in a perfect brew. This is a game mechanic, not real alcohol. |
| Effects | Optional Minecraft potion effects defined by the recipe. |
