Minecraft: Craft fermented spider eye

A fermented spider eye gives your Minecraft potions new effects. In this way you create unique mixtures. In this game tip we explain how you can craft the secret ingredient.

Create fermented spider eye in Minecraft

For a fermented spider eye in Minecraft, you need three ingredients: a classic spider eye, sugar and a brown mushroom. The arrangement in the crafting table is irrelevant.

• You get spider eyes by killing the normal spiders or small cave spiders in the game. Sugar is obtained from sugar cane and the brown mushroom can be found on green meadows or in forests.
• You can then pour the fermented spider eye into the brewing stand with a potion of your choice. The ingredient reverses the effect of the potion in question:
• For example, a speed potion becomes a potion of slowness and a healing potion becomes a potion of damage.
• However, the effect is only reversed in one direction. You cannot turn a negative potion like the Potion of Weakness back into a positive brew.
