How to craft a Fermented Spider Eye in Survival Mode
1. Open the Crafting Menu
First, open your crafting table so that you have the 3x3 crafting grid that looks like this:
2. Add Items to make a Fermented Spider Eye
In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3x3 crafting grid. To make a fermented spider eye, place 1 sugar, 1 brown mushroom, and 1 spider eye in the 3x3 crafting grid.
When making a fermented spider eye, it is important that the sugar, brown mushroom, and spider eye are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. In the first row, there should be 1 spider eye in the first box, 1 brown mushroom in the second box, and 1 sugar in the third box. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for a fermented spider eye.
Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the fermented spider eye will appear in the box to the right.
