Charcoal1600Charcoal can be made by burning wood inside a furnace.

Overall, lava by far is still the best fuel in Minecraft, as it lasts the longest while used in a furnace. It's also fairly easy to get once you get up and running with a base and start exploring some caves.

However, for the most part you should probably go with either coal or even charcoal as you can simply burn wood inside a furnace, and it will last as long as coal.
