Ingredients match the published snapshot.

Usage

The block occupies a standard full volume and is shown with an isometric preview.

A barrel is a 27-slot container with the capacity of a single chest. Hoppers and droppers can move items through it, and breaking the block releases both the container contents and the barrel. A nearby unemployed villager can claim it as a fisherman's workstation; piglins become hostile when a player opens or breaks one. Its block entity tracks the number of viewers and flips the open block state while the container is in use, so the lid animation and open sound follow the real inventory state.
