Minecraft has always been a game where players can let their creative ideas flow. While many blocks let you build cool things, some players with a knack for technology wanted more. That’s where redstone comes in.
Redstone is essentially a Minecraft equivalent of electricity that allows players to build some really useful and clever contraptions. From automated farms to automatic doors, Redstone enables it all. It’s a bit like building what real engineers do but on a smaller scale.
In this guide, we walk you through everything you need to know about Minecraft Redstone, how to obtain it, its components, and some basic logic gates that every Minecraft player should know about.
How to get Redstone
You can find redstone deep underground, typically between Y-levels 8 to -64. When mined, each redstone ore drops approximately 4-5 redstone dust. But if you’re using a Fortune III enchanted pickaxe, it can increase the yield.
When you’re mining underground and come across large veins of redstone, you can quickly fill up your inventory. To reduce the load on your inventory, you can combine 9 redstone dusts into a single redstone block to condense. When you get back up to the surface or whenever you want to use the redstone dust, you can put the redstone block back into your crafting grid and convert it back into 9 redstone dusts.
