In the 1.9 pre-release #3 one of the biggest new additions was the ability to craft or "brew" potions using the brewing stand. However, there are a LOT of possible combinations for making potions and some of them don't really seem to make a whole lot of sense, and so making potions can be quite confusing and overwhelming.
There are currently 9 ingredients that can be used in potioncraft. These include Nether wart, glowstone dust, redstone dust, fermented spider eyes, spider eyes, sugar, ghast tears, blaze powder, and magma cream.
There are some recipes listed on the wiki, however not all have been listed. Further, it is much better to understand why you're doing what you are doing - a deeper understanding means that you have a higher chance of remembering.
With all of this in mind, I've made a quick, yet comprehensive tutorial video on how to craft potions in Minecraft, explaining everything from how to craft bottles, to explaining some of the more complex recipes.

Episode 4 - Raw Deal
In todays episode we make use of the make-shift egg farm that we made in the previous episode and construct a machine of perpetual delicious chicken death!
On top of that, we get a pretty jarring reminder of the golden rule of Minecraft: never dig straight down! Luckily, we survived with levels in-tact, and were able to enchant the first really badass pick of the series.
A few more mini/low-tech farms round out the episode (a sheep paddock, cow paddock, and squid grinder)
