In Minecraft, you make a dried kelp block by combining dried kelp in a crafting grid. This block is created specifically from dried kelp, not raw kelp.
Crafting Dried Kelp Blocks
To craft a dried kelp block, you will need dried kelp. Dried kelp is obtained by smelting raw kelp in a furnace. Once you have nine pieces of dried kelp, you can combine them in a crafting table.
The Recipe
According to the crafting process, to make a dried kelp block, you must place 9 dried kelp in the 3x3 crafting grid. The arrangement is straightforward, filling the entire grid. This is similar to how other block forms of items, like blocks of gold or iron, are crafted for compact storage or fuel use.
Specifically, the required pattern is:
- There should be 3 dried kelp in the first row.
- There should be 3 dried kelp in the second row.
- And 3 dried kelp in the third row.
This means you simply fill every slot in the 3x3 crafting area with dried kelp.
Here is a visual representation of the crafting recipe:
| Dried Kelp | Dried Kelp | Dried Kelp |
| Dried Kelp | Dried Kelp | Dried Kelp |
| Dried Kelp | Dried Kelp | Dried Kelp |
Placing the nine dried kelp pieces in this pattern within a crafting table will yield one dried kelp block.
