Overview
Pink Concrete is one of the 16 variants of White Concrete: same recipe, same hardness, same drops — only the look differs. The full write-up for the set is on the White Concrete page.
Pink Concrete is a coloured block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. It has no crafting recipe — you collect it by mining it where it generates. Hardness 1.8 puts it in the middle of the pack for mining speed.
Mine it with a wooden pickaxe or better, or you get no drop at all. Broken correctly, it drops itself. It offers almost no protection from explosions (1.8 blast resistance).
A full stack holds 64. It is not used in any crafting recipe.
About the pink set
How long it takes to break
Pink Concrete sits at hardness 1.8: 9 seconds per block with your fists, 0.3 with the correct netherite tool.
Iron takes 0.45 seconds against diamond's 0.35, so the upgrade worth making for this block is the one to iron.
Below wooden the block breaks and simply vanishes. Bring the right tier or leave it in the ground.
Efficiency adds its level squared plus one to the tool speed, so Efficiency V is about 3 times faster than the same tool unenchanted.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand * | 9 s | 9 s | 9 s |
| Wooden | 1.4 s | 0.25 s | 0.1 s |
| Stone | 0.7 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Iron | 0.45 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Diamond | 0.35 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
| Netherite | 0.3 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
| Golden | 0.25 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
Properties
Pink Concrete resists blasts at 1.8, which is not enough to survive anything explosive nearby. Light does not pass through it, and it emits none of its own. One inventory slot holds 64, the normal full stack. A pickaxe is the fastest choice here. A tool of the wrong class is no better than your fist — the speed bonus is tied to the block's own tool tag.
