Crimson Stem Wiki Guide

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a crimson stem with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, a crimson stem is a new item that was introduced in the Nether Update. The crimson stem and the warped stem are basically the Nether’s version of a log. What makes a crimson stem so unique (compared to Overworld logs such as oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak) is that crimson stems and items made out of crimson stems can not be destroyed by fire.

A crimson stem is an item that you can not make with a crafting table or furnace. Instead, you need to find and gather this item in the game.
