* If the charcoal pile is not sealed within 30 seconds of ignition, charcoal will not be produced. If "burning" sounds are coming from the pit, charcoal will not be created! Quickly open the shell and extinguish the flames with buckets of water before the firewood burns to ash. Fill the empty spaces with firewood and rebuild the shell to try again. | * If the charcoal pile is not sealed within 30 seconds of ignition, charcoal will not be produced.

* The maximum size of any charcoal pit is a 13x13x13 cube. Firewood up to 6 blocks away, in any direction, from the firepit will be made into charcoal. This means that the largest volume of firewood that can be processed in one pit is 13³-2 (2,195 blocks), which will have an average yield of 12,072.5 charcoal. | * The maximum size of any charcoal pit is a 13x13x13 cube.

Charcoal is the first type of fuel capable of generating temperatures high enough (1300°C) to smelt metal ores such as Copper (1084°C).

In the bloomery, charcoal can be used to smelt items at a higher temperature. For example, quartz has a required temperature of 1350°C, yet charcoal can still be used as the fuel to smelt it. | In the bloomery, charcoal can be used to smelt items at a higher temperature.
