How to unlock the Chestful of Cobblestone achievement in Minecraft: Edition - Definitive Guide

This achievement is for filling a chest full of cobblestone you mined. It should come naturally with strip mining or long caving trips just make a single chest dedicated to all your cobble

Chest has 27 slots, 27 x 64 = 1,728

Is this additive throughout your maps or does it all have to be in one chest?

Now, does the achievement only register the chest part of it, or is it smart enough to tell whether you actually mined it. Like, if me and a buddy share the workload of mining and then we dump it all in, and then each of us withdraws it all out and puts it back in, will we both get the achievement?

That sounds like something worth testing I haven't done any multiplayer myself so I can't confirm or deny

Yes. I can confirm that one person does not have to do all the work. As long as there's 27 stacks of cobblestone, anyone can pick it up and put it back in the chest for the cheevo.

Craig did you do it on an ported world or on a new one

I think if you import a world with a chest full of cobblestone it causes the achievement to not unlock unless you start a new world. That was my problem.

I mined a lot more than 1728 cut stone, putting everything back in the vault and no success!

I too had issues with this achievement unlocking I mined all the cobble in the tutorial world yet it would never unlock, going off of ZfighterSon's reply I force quit the game and put my console in offline mode reopened the game then mined all the cobble again in a new tutorial world once I had all the cobble I made a chest and put the cobble in it set my console to online and waited a few seconds nothing happened so I opened the chest picked up one stack then put it back in the chest and it unlocked immediately! this achievement seems buggy. Wish the best to everyone that needs it!

I was having the same bad luck as the rest of the previous comments where the achievement was not unlocking for me and the tracker was not even showing any progress. I went ahead and started a new tutorial world but I made sure to start it in offline mode by setting my network connection to offline. I then went ahead and mined the full 1728 cobblestone blocks again and put it in a chest. Next I put myself back online and waited, but nothing happened. So I then I quit out and came back in and created a second chest and moved all my cobblestones from the first chest to the newly created second chest and boom finally the achievement unlocked for me.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE THE ONE WHO MINES THE COBBLESTONE! As long as you place 27 stacks of cobblestone into a chest, you will get the achievement. This means that if you get 2 or more people strip mining, you can get 1728 cobblestone in no time. Give all the cobblestone to one person, then they put all the cobblestone in a chest. Then the other person takes all the cobblestone out and puts it back in. Repeat for all players.

Like most achievements in the game the tutorial is great for this. Skip then with b and get some wood. Build a crafting table next a chest. Now take the first pick axe out of the chest and mine the iron. Now make about 6 iron pick axes and now the majority of the castle ground and structure is cobblestone. Now get mining. There is far more stone than needed so have fun.

What am I doing wrong? I am at 79% of this achievement yet I get no advancement no matter what I put in a chest, I have 6 newly mined stacks of cobblestone that I put in a chest but it doesn't add to the total %. I am doing it in the Tutorial world and it hasn't been loaded in creative. I have also totally rebooted my Xbox One. I swear I have had so many problems with the One.. the 360 was never like this.....

Did it on the Tutorial World, mined the cobblestone, filled a chest, and nothing. Did a full power cycle of the One (where you hold the power button in for at least 2 seconds when turning it off), restarted, and reloaded the game. Removed all the cobblestone from the chest, put it all back in, and the achievement popped finally.
Also noticed that the time tracker was showing days played again, which it had appeared frozen at 9% previously.

Difficulty: Easy, though takes a while to get.
Requirements: Pickaxes, a lot of them (preferably good ones) and a chest.
What to do: A chest is easy to get (create from 8 wooden planks at a crafting table). Start mining cobblestone. YOU have to mine at least 1728 cobblestone yourself. You can check your progress in the leaderboards. Then place the cobblestone in a chest and unlock the achievement. The actual mining can take a while, so it is best to decrease the amount of time needed by getting better (golden or diamond) pickaxes. If you've already mined 1728 cobblestone but don't have that amount stored, simply join a friend and remove and replace one stack of 64 cobblestone.

You can unlock this achievement by mining exactly 1,728 blocks of cobblestone. They can be obtained over time from your adventures underground, or you can simply create a cobblestone generator if you have some lava nearby. Here's how to make a cobblestone generator:


Here's a video to help with this achievement in general:

The super simple and fast way is to go into a tutorial world on Peaceful. Find an area with a lot of stone and start using a pickaxe. Make sure to build multiple pickaxes in advance since a lot of them will break. I found an area right next to a village and mined forward. Once you run out of picks, head to the chest, place your stacks, make new picks, and then repeat.

I used the tutorial world so I could get an enchanted diamond pick ace and a hopper. Just make a simple cobblestone generator with a hopper and chest under the cobblestone. Look straight at the stone and tape down the right trigger. After like 30 minutes you'll have a fill chest. Just remove a stack and replace it for the achievement to pop.

I find this to be more efficient than going out and mining the side of a cliff.
