    In 1.8.9 or before, you don't need blaze powder to power; it works automatically. After the 1.9 update, there should be a slot with an image of blaze powder there. Put the blaze powder in that slot. To check your version number, go to the title screen and look on the lower-left corner.

    Dragon breath can be obtained from the End by fighting the Ender Dragon. During the fight, it should breathe some purple stuff onto the ground. Right-click on the purple stuff while holding an empty glass bottle (but don't touch the stuff directly). This will create a bottle of dragon breath. Spam-click to fill up more bottles quickly.

    Community Answer
    Insert Dragon's Breath, obtained by holding a glass bottle when the dragon uses his "breath" attack. Then, add a normal healing potion on the bottom slot, where you put your water bottles. The dragon's breath should begin to brew with the healing potion. You will soon have a lingering healing potion. It is a long but satisfying process -- lingering potions are very useful!

  • Question
    How do I make a speed 2 potion with a glass of water, gunpowder and glowstone?
    Community Answer
    Sugar is also required, as it is the base ingredient to a speed 1 potion, and so is nether wart, to make an awkward potion. First, insert as many water bottles as you want (1 bottle=1 potion, 2=2, etc.) Second, insert nether wart, and it will start to brew into an awkward potion. Third, insert sugar to brew your awkward potion into a speed potion. Fourth, insert redstone, gunpowder, or glowstone dust. Redstone increases the duration of the potion, gunpowder makes it throwable/splashable, and glowstone dust increases the effect of the potion but reduces the duration. Fifth, make it splash! (Optional)
