I’m about to make a pit fire, and will take on board your past experiences, for which, thanks. Always interesting to see what others do. Very nice pots.

Is dit een anaeroob proces? Oftewel, mag er geen zuurstof bij de fermentatie komen en is het daarom noodzakelijk dat het deksel goed sluit? Of is het deksel alleen om muggenlarven/algengroei te voorkomen zoals eerder geschreven?

I'm confused. 100% olive oil in soap making has 0 cleansing properties? You need coconut or palm oil to have any cleansing ability.

This is AMAZING! Thanks for sharing the wisdom

Awsome

Watching your pit fire has finally helped me fire successfully!!! Thank you! I was firing way too small and for not enough time. Everything just came out black and under fired. Today, I finally did it right and have orange pots!

ur hot

Some of the pottery seemed to have fireclouds, despite the high temperature.

You left out the important part of how to program the washing machine.

Nice touch using a garden fork 💖

Thank you for this video.

EXCELLENT videos! Really explains every step clearly, what to watch for good/bad, and just enough science to understand the "why" of the do/don't of the process. This is really a great tutorial! Thank you so much for putting it together. ❤

I keep my charcoal in a 5 gal bucket and "charge" it for my garden and compost.

I feel that sectioning off a bit of pond or creek water (like a kid making a baby pool on the riverside) is very feasible and would leave very little evidence archaeologically.

I have learn't more in this 'one' video than all of other soap videos out there! ty so much.

Help please! My mixture turned creamy like yours but after sitting for a while a clear liquid raised to the top. Its currently boilling and has been for several hours. It is sudsy but isnt anywhere near yours. I came across a recipe before yours that said to use 1 cup fat to 3/4 lye. So i used 3 cups lye and 3&3/4 cups lard. My lye floated an egg without condensing. The lye was also strong enough to make hydrogen. Is my soap ruined?

Can i make a liquid soap out of it

Thank you for this video, i have been looking for a method of using natural ingredients to make lye as i am allergic to store bought soaps. I will try this until i get it perfect. May i ask if its possible to use home made natural herbs infused oil s

Medieval black soap? That soap has ita origins in Nigeria and wider Western African countries. Dont colonise African people's old age tradition and brand it another name.

Thanks for the tips... 👍👍👍

thanks for the video. I have a question. Does the ratio you used change if I used tallow instead of olive oil? have you make ash soap with tallow? I only use tallow on my skin and I've made really nice balms with clarified deer tallow. I get 20 lbs or more a year from my deer harvests so figured it would be cool to turn it into soap as well as balm. it's really healing stuff. the melting point is super high almost like beeswax practically lol it makes a good candle too actually

Thanks for this simple way of making lye. Got my bucket started, cant wait to collect in a few days.

I live in an area with bears. Is this so smelly that it might attract them? For the record, we cant leave trash outside without fear of bear carnage.

That was informative and fun, thankyou! So much wool, no fuss.

I'm wondering... if you used sea water in your wood ash, when making the lye, would it make the soap harder in the end?

"built in lip balm" 😂

thanks so much for sharing this!!! I totally enjoyed all the info. I'm confidently using your instructions to give mead a go. im new to bee keeping

So informative and precise! Thank you for making this video for those that love to do things our ancestors had to.

👇SO CUTE 👍😜😘💯🖖😎

Good fun vid, thanks for sharing.

Fascinating!! I’ve been making soap since 2016; Wonderful experience to watch you using this old fashioned method to make soap. So much information. Thank you so much!

I watched this video and also the stone brewing video. Why didn't you include the fermentation and resulting product? I do realize that the fermentation process is another subject but I am interested in seeing something about that as well.

5:15 A note of caution: NEVER use river stones--there is a very good chance they will explode in the heat.

I bought a very similar 2 gallon press at a local flea market. It cost about $50 and had a lot of surface rust. I think these presses are not very hard to find. I had seen them for years at flea markets, but I never needed one until I bought an old apple grinder. With the apple grinder and my screw press I can make apple juice easily. Soon I will use it for making grape juice. It was rather tedious to clean up my screw press, but it was well worth it as it now looks really nice. I used sand paper and steel wool to remove the rust, then I painted it. It took maybe 4 hours of work...........

Why do you fire for so long? From what ive read you only need to reach the temp not hold it at that temp. Im new to this still and just curious why you fire for so long.

Thank you for sharing this. What kind of shuttle are you using? That is awesome!

good work guys and pretty decent hustle in those heavier suits of armor. ⚔

Nice fighting. I like that these are realistic-looking polearms. They will also move and hot more like polearms because they have realistic heads.

Thanks for sharing this intersting method! Do you need to put a lid on or does it work without a lid as well? How long would you recommend to let it sit? Could a couple of days in warm weather also be okay? How can you see it's done?

Nice armoured combat(buhurt) longsword sparring, it seems you had fun.... XD

This was excellent in the step by step explanation of how you do your pit fire. Very encouraging. Well done. Clay not dry enough, thr roof coming down on it, or tossing something in a bit hard, but I think the method is solid. I would swap out stone floor for fired tiles. You could just fire tiles for the purpose, then you have a flat floor that won't crack like stone.

This is interesting because I actually overfired my test pieces in my first real pit fire attempt. My test piece melted, slumped, warped, bloated and blistered. I observed the piece glowing yellow, and I estimate that I got it to about 2,100 to 2,200 degrees F. Then I again, I was using forced air induction. I was blowing a fan into the air inlets at the bottom of my "pit" brick, open top fireplace. That was my problem. I was feeding too much air into the coals and fire making it burn too hot. In my subsequent testing, I didn't use forced air induction and my pieces seemed to fire around 1,800 to 2,000. They rang when I tapped them and have the beautiful terra cotta coloring, so they seemed to fire properly without forcing air into the inlets.

Very nice, wish there was a similar event in my area!

A great job I must say…😊

Although it's a very traditional method but yes still I find potteries more attractive.

I like it guys 👍 Just how painful is it with the armour? Also how disorientating is it fighting in the helmets and the sound when being hit?

Wouldn't it be faster to fill a pot with some water and ash, boil and strain? Another channel did that and made their soap right away from ashes in his bbq grill. He added a little salt to harden the bar
