Ultimate Copper Golem guide for Minecraft
Currently the Copper Golem is only available as an experimental feature in the game on the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft, which means players cannot experience it in the default version of the game. Copper Golem will be released as part of the third game drop in 2025, an upcoming update that is purely focused on copper.

Copper Golems do not spawn naturally like Iron Golems do in Minecraft; players have to craft one in order to obtain it. To craft a Copper Golem, players first need to mine copper blocks with a stone pickaxe. The easiest way to find copper veins is to search open caves. Copper veins are very easily found in the game, and they look like grey stones with orange and greenish specks.Players need at least nine raw copper pieces to make one copper block, but before that, players have to smelt this raw copper in a furnace, which will convert them into ingots. Placing 9 ingots in the crafting table will give one copper block. Then players need one carved pumpkin, which they can locate in the wilds, usually found in the grassy biome.Once you find a pumpkin block, use the shears to turn it into a carved pumpkin. Then place the Copper Block below and the Carved Pumpkin above it, which will spawn a Copper Golem. If you notice, doing so will not only spawn a Copper Golem, but also the Copper Block will transform into a Copper Chest. This Copper Chest is linked with the Copper Golem’s Task.

Copper Golem is a peaceful mob that helps players automatically store and sort items. Yes, you heard it right. The copper golem functions as a little housekeeper in Minecraft. When players drop any item in the Copper Chest beside the Copper Golem, the mob picks up the item from the copper chest and transfers it into the strong wooden chest.The golem will find a chest that has the similar item and transfer it there; if not found, then it will drop the item into a new chest. The golem can pick 16 stacks at once and sort them.
How to change Copper Golem’s color

As we know, an unwaxed copper item over time will oxidize and turn into a green-blueish color. Similarly, an unwaxed Copper Golem will turn into a green-blueish color over time. If you want your golem to stay reddish-brown, then you can use honeycomb on the golem, which will not let it oxidize.Through the above guide, players can now craft their own Copper Golem and take advantage of its ability to store and sort items.
