    I made salt from seawater once on a stovetop. You just need to 'harvest' it from the water at the right time as the crystals are forming, like the guy from Jacobsen says. Otherwise it re-dissolves and becomes a grey mush like the historical reenactment.

    Enjoyed this very much. Thanks! How did the local Native Americans historically get salt? Did they have a salt trade of any kind? Would be interested in that story if possible.

    For the reverse osmosis process, I would add ash to the area where water is drawn from the ocean, to kosher the source.
    For the re-enactment process, it would be interesting to see someone attempt with clay pots and a brick stove.

    He has to go check it every day. It's on public property and you can't put up a private fence or anything like that. You always check your gear before starting up for the day but in this case there's a double need - nothing privately owned can be built there and even if it could it couldn't be secured physically anyhow.
    🙂
    The entire Oregon Coast is public property - in fact, public access is required by law at regular intervals, which is why you observe so many places to get down to the ocean (even if hundreds of vertical feet of stairs need to be built) and why there are so many full featured campgrounds, state and national parks, and locations where the public can harvest their own food along the entire length without having to set foot in a boat.

      There is no safe food in the ocean anymore. Mercury, radiation, PFAS and tons of plastics daily from China. The stuff will end your life, prematurely.

    For the reenactment guys fyi the main step you're missing is to transfer the water after it boils down to another vat after it cools below 110f then reheating to 150f and the salt will grow on the surface and not be grey full of calcium

    Wouldn’t the copper make it poisonous? I heard when using copper pots you have to be careful not to cook something that leeches the copper.

We’d tap a tree, add a bucket, check twice a day, build a fire, big ass pot, continually add liquid, reduce to syrup, voila maple syrup! Time consuming, yes. Worth it? Also yes. The only similarities is heat for reduction.

    You can't make salt . You can harvest it you can collect it you can gather it . All the filter is has already been made .

    I love all the MICROPLASTICS in my JACOBSEN salt. This is why I stopped using REAL SALT...because I want UNHEALTHY salt full of PLASTICS. Why? Because the more plastics I HAVE in my body the less I have to worry about being unhealthy. If I eat JACOBSON SALT PLASTIC......I know I am or soon will be UNHEALTHY! Note Desalinization does not REMOVE plastic...it JUST makes it taste BETTER.
