Yellow Concrete at a glance

Yellow Concrete comes from placing Yellow Concrete Powder in water and mining with a pickaxe, and Utility Blocks is where it sits as a block. A slot of Yellow Concrete holds 64, nine slots hold 576, and 1728 fill a chest.

Yellow Concrete owes its colour to yellow dye. A dandelion, a golden dandelion or wildflowers each give one, and a sunflower gives two. Yellow Concrete has a hardness of 1.8. A creeper does to Yellow Concrete what a tool does, because both work against 1.8. The tool tag on Yellow Concrete is a pickaxe, with no tier requirement behind it. It sits between Yellow Carpet and Yellow Concrete Powder in Utility Blocks, number 338 of 340 there.

How to obtain

  • Placing Yellow Concrete Powder in water
