A '''blast furnace''' is a block that [[Smelting|smelts]] [[ore]]s, [[Raw Metal|raw metals]] and metal [[armor]] and [[tools]] twice as quickly as a [[furnace]] but cannot smelt anything else. It also serves as an [[armorer]]'s [[job site block]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===

A blast furnace can be picked up using any [[pickaxe]]. If mined without a pickaxe, it does not drop.

Blast furnaces drop their contents when broken.

=== Natural generation ===
Blast furnaces can generate in any armorer house; these can be found in a [[village]]. They can also generate in [[trail ruins]].

== Usage ==
Blast furnaces can be pushed by [[piston]]s.{{only|bedrock}}

=== Smelting ===

{{main|Smelting}}

Blast furnaces are similar to furnaces, but can [[smelt]] only raw [[ore]], [[ore]] blocks and [[tool]]s/[[armor]] made of [[iron]], [[gold]] or [[armor|chainmail]]. Blast furnaces serve as the counterpart to [[smoker]]s, which are used mainly to cook food faster. Smelting equipment yields one iron or gold nugget from their respective materials. Once an [[item]] and a [[fuel]] are placed into the blast furnace, the block state changes to {{code|lit}} and the item is smelted twice as fast as a regular furnace. Fuel is also used at double the rate of regular furnaces, so the number of items smelted per fuel stays the same. The product can then be collected by {{control|using}} the output. Like normal [[furnace]]s, a [[hopper]] can be used to feed items into a blast furnace and can also pick up items from it.

=== Changing profession ===
If a village has a blast furnace that has not been claimed by a villager, any nearby villager who has not chosen a [[job site]] block has a chance to change their profession to armorer.

=== Light source ===
Blast furnaces emit a [[light]] level of 13 when active, similar to normal [[furnace]]s.

=== Custom name ===
By default, the interface of a blast furnace is labeled "Blast Furnace", but this name can be customized by naming it in an [[anvil]] before placing it, or by changing the <code>CustomName</code> tag using the {{cmd|data}} command.{{only|java}}

=== Lock ===
{{IN|je}}, a blast furnace can be "locked" by setting its <code>Lock</code> tag using the {{cmd|data}} command. If a blast furnace's <code>Lock</code> tag is not blank, the blast furnace cannot be opened unless the player is holding an item with the same name as the <code>Lock</code> tag's text. For example, to lock a blast furnace at (0,64,0) so that the blast furnace cannot be opened unless the player is holding an item named "Blast Furnace Key", use {{cmd|data merge block 0 64 0 <nowiki>{Lock:"Blast Furnace Key"}</nowiki>}}.

=== Note Blocks ===
Blast furnace can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass drum" sounds.
