How to Use a Furnace in Minecraft
Using a furnace is one of the simplest things in Minecraft, and you will have to do it a lot. Smelting ores, cooking food, turning sand into glass, turning diamonds back into diamond ore (not very efficient, but why not?). The only trick is to efficiently use the fuel you have at hand.
Steps

Open your furnace. This is done by clicking the "use" button while aiming at the furnace. The preset button for this is the right mouse button. You'll obviously need to craft a furnace first, if you haven't done already.

Place fuel in the bottom slot on the left. You'll need to carefully determine which kind of fuel you need, as each kind of fuel smelts/cooks a different amount of items. While one bucket of lava can process 100 items, charcoal can only process 8, and saplings only half an item (so you'll need two to process one item). For a complete list of fuels and how much items they can process, check out this table

Place the item to be processed in the top left slot. You can burn wood to make charcoal, smelt iron ore into iron ingots, or cook food so it replenishes more hunger.

Wait for it to finish. The furnace will keep working until it's either run out of items to process or fuel. Note that sleeping in a bed will not speed up or skip the furnace. If you want to try the game before buying it, you can use the demo version of Minecraft. You can play a demo version of the game for 100 minutes for a maximum of five days. Or make use of Minecraft free trials available for PC and Xbox users.
