How To Make Acacia Stairs
Step 1: Open A Crafting Table
To make acacia stairs, open your crafting table. You should see the 3×3 crafting grid in the top portion of the interface. (See image below.)
Step 2: Add the Acacia Stairs Recipe Ingredients to the Crafting Grid
Place acacia wood planks in the first square of the top row of the crafting table 3×3 grid, the first and second squares of the middle row, and in all three squares of the bottom row. (See image below.)
The acacia stairs recipe in Minecraft is a shaped recipe, which means that as long as the ingredients are placed in the crafting grid in the same pattern you will be able to make stairs even if they are flipped.
However, the recipe will not work for stairs of any type if the ingredients are placed upside-down.
Once you’ve placed the acacia planks in the correct squares, the acacia stairs will appear in the square on the right.

FAQ’s
Do acacia stairs generate naturally in Minecraft?
Yes, acacia stairs will generate naturally in savanna biome villages and they can sometimes be found in shipwrecks. But since these are rare and they won’t have many acacia stairs, it’s a whole lot easier to just make them on a crafting table.
Are acacia stairs stackable? If so, how many can go in a stack?
Acacia stairs, like all stairs in Minecraft are stackable and you can have up to 64 in one stack.
What is the best tool(s) for breaking stairs?
An ax is the fastest tool for breaking wood stairs, like acacia, spruce, and mangrove stairs. And a pickaxe is best for breaking non-wood stairs, like deepslate, end stone or stone stairs. Breaking a wood stair without a tool will drop a stair that can be picked up. Breaking non-wood stairs with anything other than a pickaxe will cause the stairs not to drop and they will be lost.
Is walking up stairs faster than jumping up one block?
Yes, walking upstairs is faster than jumping up the same distance. Another benefit to using stairs over jumping is that it doesn’t exhaust your hunger bar, meaning you won’t wear yourself down and have to eat.
Can wood stairs be used as fuel for furnaces and blast furnaces?
Yes, acacia and other wood stairs can be used as fuel in furnaces, blast furnaces, and smokers. You will be able to smelt 1.5 items be wood stair burned.
Are acacia stairs water soluble?
Yes, acacia stairs, like all stair variants, wood and non-wood, are water soluble. Meaning you can place a stair and water from a water bucket in the same space. This can come in handy when you’re have a single layer of blocks and need to make a spot that holds water. Replacing a full block with a stair or slab will allow you to place water in the same place as well.
