In this tutorial, we’ll describe how to make an infinite lava source in Minecraft.
What Is Infinite Lava and Why Is It Important?
In Minecraft, lava is usually a finite resource. Like water, lava can be collected in buckets. However, every time you collect a source block of lava, it disappears. This means that if you use all the lava in a given area, you’ll have to search for more.
It also means that every time you need more lava, you’re going to have to run back to the source to retrieve it.
Infinite lava is helpful as it allows players to have a constant source of lava inside their base, dramatically cutting down the amount of time it takes to collect it. This can be seriously useful if you have stacks of blocks that you want to smelt.
Infinite lava can be used to:
How to Create Infinite Lava in Minecraft
There are two ways to create unlimited lava in Minecraft. You can either craft an infinite lava source using in-game materials, or use mods or commands to generate lava as desired. We’ll explain how to do all three for both Minecraft Bedrock and Java Edition.
How to Build an Infinite Lava Source

How to Get Infinite Lava Using Commands
If you’re playing survival mode and don’t mind using cheats to source your materials, there’s an easy command that can grant you an infinite amount of lava buckets.
/give @a minecraft:lava_bucket 64
You should now have a stack of lava buckets in your inventory. Simply repeat this command when needed and you’ll have enough lava for any amount of smelting.
Infinite Lava? No Problem
Having an infinite source of lava in a survival world is a massive help, especially when you want to smelt a bunch of stone blocks for a big building project. Hopefully, with this tutorial, you’ll have your infinite lava farm up and running in no time.
