Hoppers are one of the most useful items in Minecraft 1.18 version. As players live and survive in the vast world of Minecraft, they can get overwhelmed by the amount of items they have to manage and organize, and this is where a hopper and a simple chest setup can come in handy.
A Hopper is a block that can catch any item if it drops on top of it. This is a great tool for players and helps them in various ways, especially in Minecraft’s 1.18 version, where players might collect loads of new items at once. Whether it’s a simple manual farm, or a huge automatic sorting system, hoppers are an integral part of any item sorting and farming build.
Ways to easily use Hoppers in Minecraft 1.18 version
New players might get a little confused while making a hopper contraption, but there are several easy ways to use this handy block.
Simple hopper with chest contraption
For example, players can use two chests, one for coal and one for items to smelt and connect them to the furnace with the help of hoppers. The furnace can then transfer the smelted items into another hopper which finally keeps the final product in a third chest. This way, a semi-automatic furnace system can be built in Minecraft 1.18 version.
