What is charcoal used for in Minecraft?

Answer 1

Smelt wood in a furnace.

But if you do this, you're wasting wood for houses and shelter from creepers and

other mobs.You should mine for coal than making charcoal,besides you waste coal or other burnable Items just to make charcoal,and you can also use wood to make a pickax and other tools.

Requirements of logs/wood/sticks for tools(*Including crafting table 4 wooden plank=1 wood):

*pickax:3 wood

*ax: 3 wood

*sword:3 wood

torch:1 wood 1 coal= 4 torches

*bow : 2wood 3 string

*arrow: 2wood 1 flint 1 feather

*door: 3 wood

Answer 2

You have two options. One is to make charcoal from trees and the other is to mine it. To make charcoal from trees, put wood (not wooden planks) into a furnace. It should make an item called 'Charcoal', and it can be used as a substitute for coal. If you want coal, however, you have to look for it. Look for stone with black specks in it. Hope this helped!
