Minecraft torches: recipe, light and types

The torch is the most basic light source: one coal or charcoal on top of a stick makes four torches. It gives light level 14, enough to stop monsters spawning around it, and melts snow within 2 blocks and ice within 3.

It goes on top of or on the side of almost any solid block and has no collision, so you can walk through it. Anything breaks it instantly, and it also drops if you remove the block holding it, if water reaches it or if a piston pushes it. Lava, on the other hand, destroys it without a drop.

It has a handy mining trick: sand and gravel do not fall if a torch sits underneath, and if they land on a torch they break. So to clear a gravel column, place a torch below it and break the bottom block.

This page gathers the whole family: the regular torch, the soul torch with its bluish light, the redstone torch and the copper torch.

They generate in mineshafts, villages, strongholds, igloos, woodland mansions, pillager outposts and ancient cities, and the four on the End exit portal regenerate with the dragon.
