Required Materials to make this Potion
In Minecraft, these are the materials materials you can use to craft a Potion of Night Vision (3:00):
How to craft this Potion in Survival Mode
1. Open the Brewing Stand menu
First, open your brewing stand so that you have the Brewing Stand menu that looks like this:
2. Add Blaze Powder to Activate the Brewing Stand
Start by adding blaze powder in the far left box to activate the brewing stand.
3. Add Items to make this Potion
In the Brewing Stand menu, you place ingredients in the top box and the potions are created in the bottom three boxes.
To make a Potion of Night Vision (3:00), you will need 1 water bottle, 1 nether wart, and 1 golden carrot.
Add the Water Bottle
First, place the water bottle in one of the bottom boxes in the Brewing Stand menu.
TIP: You can make up to 3 potions at a time by adding 3 water bottles to the Brewing Stand.
Add the Nether Wart
Next, add the nether wart to the top box in the Brewing Stand menu.
You will know that the brewing process has begun because the bubbles will turn white and the arrow will turn white to show the progress. Once the brewing is done, the nether wart will disappear.
At this point, your bottle will contain an Awkward Potion which has no effects.
Add the Golden Carrot
Next, add the golden carrot to the top box in the Brewing Stand menu.
Once the brewing process is complete, you will hear a "glug glug glug" sound and the golden carrot will disappear. The Potion of Night Vision (3:00) will now be finished.
TIP: If you hover over the potion in the Brewing Stand, you will see the name of the potion and its effects.
Your bottle will now contain a Potion of Night Vision (3:00).
If you drink the Potion of Night Vision (3:00), it will give you night vision for 3 minutes. This is extremely useful when exploring the nether and under the ocean.
At this point, you can add this Potion of Night Vision (3:00) to your inventory or you can continue and turn the potion into a Splash Potion of Night Vision (2:15).
