How To Make An Xp Farm
This is one of the simplest ways to build an XP farm early in the game. To build this farm, you just need to chop down a few trees and mine for about 15 minutes. Let’s get into more details:
Step 01: Gathering The Materials
You are going to need:
- 38 wooden logs
- 16 pieces of cobble
- 30 pieces of raw iron
- 2 furnaces
- crafting table
First, you need to remove 12 oak logs, and the remaining 26 can be utilized to build several planks. After that, make use of four planks to create a crafting table.

On the crafting table, you must build 12 chests. Now you are left with 4 oak planks and use them to create 2 furnaces.
Step 2
Place the furnaces down and at the bottom of both grids of your crafting table, place 2 pieces of oak and on the top, place 3 pieces of oak.
By doing this, from each of those furnaces, you will get 3 pieces of charcoal. This charcoal will help you smelt the iron you will use in making an XP farm.
Remove the charcoal from the furnace and put 2 on the fuel grid. After that, place 15 of your raw iron on each of those grids. While charcoal smelting your iron, you should visit the crafting table and create some sticks.
Step 3
Once all the iron is smelted into iron ingots, place them in the crafting table, allowing a space in the middle to place 6 of the chests you have. This action will produce 6 hoppers.

After that, dig 2 blocks beneath your furnaces and place 2 separate hoppers in the tunnel-like space behind your furnaces. Now fill the remaining space with 2 more separate hoppers.
Step 4
Now go in front of the furnaces, dig 2 blocks again, and place a chest in one block and another in the other. When you do this, ensure that you do it by clicking the shift key to make these elements remain individual.
Afterwards, go behind the furnaces and shift-click to place two separate chests.
Step 5
Now, with the remaining 2 oak logs, create some planks on the crafting table. Using those planks, build the surrounding of the structure you are already building.
Next place two of the remaining charcoal inside each chest block, which will take up the bottom space of 2 furnaces.
After that, place eight cobblestones on the top of chest blocks to make a fire out of 2 furnaces. This action will smelt the cobblestones into stones.
Step 6
After that, you should make 2 levers by placing cobblestones at the crafting table. Once you have created levers, place them on the front of your furnaces.

Using any of the methods, you should smelt 8 cobblestones. Using the levers, you have already placed them in front of the furnace; now, you would be able to create a load of XPs by making upward and downward lever movements.
