It’s fairly late at night and the I was wondering how the process worked. You were short and sweet on the whole process and didn’t add anything unnecessary to the video. Simply amazing 10/10
Desalination is an important survival skill when you’re on a deserted island in the middle of the ocean. Not only can boiling make sea water safe to drink, but the salt left behind could come in handy for many other survival uses.
I'm sure it's not the most economic way of getting salt. Sure, if you let it sun dry it will essentially be free. What you cannot put a price on is knowing you made it yourself and knowing that apart from what was already in the water there is no added chemicals, which is a win in my book. Great video bud
You are actually supposed to just boil off most of the water NOT ALL and cool it down slowly and the supersaturated solution will start producing 100% pure crystal salt. Which you skim off the water and let drain and dry . Using this method you don't have all the trapped dead sea life and other minerals like calcium in your salt. You get a clearer product
Obviously pure calcium won't taste like salt, but this is UNREFINED sea salt, calcium is a nutrient, and calcium would be a trace mineral (is even present in tap water and improves flavor). So I guess it's a matter of preference, but seems to me you can't go wrong with a little extra naturally sourced calcium from nature?
I am so amazed at how resourceful you are. Sure wish we weren't separated by an ocean, I would so make a road trip. You are one very talented and unique person. thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing this! I just finished a chemistry class where they showed how to make salt in a lab from Cl and Na. Making sea salt is more work essentially but it looks beautiful and I bet it tastes great!
I did the same thing here lately. I got 200 oz of water from the San Francisco bay and it came to 6 fl.oz. of salt. I went to San Diego and with the same 200 oz jug I got 12 fl. oz of sea salt. The last trip last week I drove by the Bonnaville Salt Flats and scraped up a couple bags of salt. I don't have a scale big enough but it looked to be a few lbs when dried up.
that is fantastic. I had no idea you could make your own sea salt. I do not live near the ocean and the ones here in Texas are near as clean as your's is. I will have to keep this in mind if I get near Mexico or California.
Deana Lynn Allen Rogers Hi Deana, you'll find it under the heading of coast bbc neil oliver. but I don't know which episode had the salt segment. however all of the episodes are very interesting.
You wouldn't be surprised if you've ever dipped your finger in sea water and placed it on your tongue. But remember, he only boiled it to get rid of the water, salt is a natural antibacterial agent and requires no cleaning.
There is something oddly satisfying about processing or growing your own food, if inwere closer to the ocean i would definitely be giving this a go. Good one
Great video! I've always lived by the ocean and it's nice to know of yet another way to acquire salt. I love the stuff, but i do use it very sparingly. Salt has many uses besides flavoring so i really appreciate this video. Thank you.
Great video, I have been looking around for some natural sea salt as most of the salt you buy now days has additives. I fish off shore but have never thought of getting sea water and making my own. you have inspired me.
Loved your video, clear easy to follow instructions. I'm definitely going to give it try, I will be getting my sea water from Anglesey ... (as shown in the coast programme you were talking about) many thanks xx
That is awesome old mate. I just saw someone on channel 33 food network doing sea salt then googled it and found your video. I intend to do my own salt. Thanks for your video. David
What a awesome video sir really cool That you shared That im a cook myself but never had seen it happen before i did know How i would be able to make it but never did it so thanks for showing !
Awesome Jeff!!! I was chuckling because as I thought of the electricity and was trying to think of other heat options you mentioned ur comment on it. *thumbsup*.
Thank you Sharnene, if I was a bit more sane, I would have thought about the cost of electricity & not gone through the exercise, however once I get over the shock of the cost, I'll still have this great salt for all our bread & cooking. cheers:)
Thanks for sharing this video with us. I thought it was hard to extract the salt from the sea since other people would get their big machines and other things, but this video really helped me, thanks man.
Well....I was curious how sea salt was made, now I know. I admire anyone who takes the time to go through the process necessary to yield sea salt! I hope to (one day) visit Australia, love the accent too! I was just mocking Crocodile Dundee today!
Been making sea salt for a while now,I also do a chili and garlic sea salt and another one I do is seasoned sea salt which is cinnamon,nutmeg,cloves,green cardamon and black cardamon and star anis
Many thanks, with my first salt video I discovered that I got about 4% salt which turns out to be fairly right. So imagine how much salt would be left if all the oceans dried up.
Just came across this. In days past, this was a very important and lucrative industry. Salt was an enormously important product, and widely used for preservation, and as an important ingredient for much of the primitive manufacturing processes. In warmer climates, the process was carried out close to the ocean in huge desalination pools. The sun and wind did the work, it was best if it didn't rain. For most of us, we can hang a large pot (prefereably earthenware or glass because salt reacts with metal) over a wood fire outside, and essentially follow the same process as in this video.
Tks for sharing. I really admire your work. May i ask, if we can get the sea water just from the shore (which is clear and clean) instead of having to go far out into the sea. Also may i ask, after you processed and got the sea salt, do you need to further do any more work or you could use it directly ....like use for cooking or use for bath? .................. thanks!
Where we live it's rally hot in summer - 40 deg C for months on end. We collected an 8 litre bucket of sea water from the Mediterranean and strained it trhough cheesecloth doubled. Then we just set it on the porch till it got really sludgy (about a week) and then just boiled off the remaining water. Didn't take long at all. Then put it in a frying pan till it went all sparky. Do you think that it has to be really pure sea water in the first place - what with all the saltiness and then boiling.
Contamination in the seawater stays when you evaporate the water. That's why he collected it 30 miles out. But if you collect near shore, his suggestion sounds good, to avoid rainy days or areas with significant runoff like a river delta.
would this salt be impure? like sea water contains all sorts of other minerals and contaminants, would filtering it with filter paper and several other steps to remove calcium and potassium be useful?
Can you tell me whats the difference between the salt you got from boiled seawater and the salt you get the from supermarkets. Is there any difference and also taste ?
Хобби
In a world where people are doing less and less for themselves, a video like this is certainly worth its salt! Thanks so much!
G'day Art, thank YOU!!!!:):)
You mean it is worth its weight in salt?
@@mannycaballero4370 does everything have to be confusing for u? He means what he says.
Yeah when those hily belies goes out to fish and gotten home but there was not salt crying poverty.
It’s fairly late at night and the I was wondering how the process worked. You were short and sweet on the whole process and didn’t add anything unnecessary to the video. Simply amazing 10/10
Wonderful! I watched this with my 3 year old son who wanted to know where salt came from. Thank you!
Desalination is an important survival skill when you’re on a deserted island in the middle of the ocean. Not only can boiling make sea water safe to drink, but the salt left behind could come in handy for many other survival uses.
Also if you can catch the steam and have it condense in a seperate container you have clean drinking water
I'm sure it's not the most economic way of getting salt. Sure, if you let it sun dry it will essentially be free.

Wouldn't calcium be good, too?

@@birkit1133 I mean the bugs and all the dead Sea Life is another thing that I'd rather not sprinkle on my food
@@jacobkudrowich got it. I'm not squeamish. The salt will kill any bacteria.
@@birkit1133 I'm not talking about bacteria I'm talking about micro organisms that have already died and their corpses litter your salt.
I really appreciate this video. You've shown me everything from start to finish. Thanks :)
Tyrēk 9 Did you already made you own salt?
Great video, thanks for taking your time to make. I do appreciate it.
I am so amazed at how resourceful you are. Sure wish we weren't separated by an ocean, I would so make a road trip. You are one very talented and unique person. thanks for sharing.

Please tell us more about getting the salt from the Bonnaville Salt Flats. Thanks
I’m so grateful you made this video! Thanks so much!! I live on the coast in Scotland, so I’m definitely going to try this!!
👍😘
Very few vids about harvesting your own salt on RUclips. Great info & you, my friend, are the salt of the earth. Thanks much!
jendracowyrm WOW, thank you:)
looks good. Perfect on a nice bit of fish..
Thanks, yes, for sure:)
that is fantastic. I had no idea you could make your own sea salt. I do not live near the ocean and the ones here in Texas are near as clean as your's is. I will have to keep this in mind if I get near Mexico or California.
Deana Lynn Allen Rogers
Hi & thank you Deana, I got inspired after watching an episode of "Coast" on tv.
***** I need to see if I can find that show on You Tube. I am sure we do not have that show here in the States.
Deana Lynn Allen Rogers
Hi Deana, you'll find it under the heading of coast bbc neil oliver. but I don't know which episode had the salt segment. however all of the episodes are very interesting.
Always wondered if this would work, guess I have my answer. That's a hell of a lot more salt than I thought you'd get. Thanks a lot for the video.
You wouldn't be surprised if you've ever dipped your finger in sea water and placed it on your tongue. But remember, he only boiled it to get rid of the water, salt is a natural antibacterial agent and requires no cleaning.
can we eat it without any process
JOHN SAMUEL S I wouldn't
then how to process it to eat
JOHN SAMUEL S grind and enjoy!
Hi! I came here from searching "how to make seaweed salt". Just want to say Thank you for the video and it helped my research a lot!
My 3 year old son wanted to know where salt comes from. I explained it to him but this video helped demonstrate it beautifully. Cheers!
There is something oddly satisfying about processing or growing your own food, if inwere closer to the ocean i would definitely be giving this a go. Good one
I am blown away, thanks for sharing!!!!
Thanks Jeff. I appreciate your knowledge
Thank you sir. I appreciate your wisdom.

Thank you mate, really enjoyed watching your video, great job.
Thank you for sharing this experience with us.. brilliant
Thank you! I will purchase a new pan just for salt. You are lovely people. ♡
Love your video with every day house found tools to make seasalt. Never imagined it would be this yieldy. 👍👍👍
Oh wow, this is awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely brilliant mate ! Enjoy
This helped me lots! Dont stop what you do
Love it! Something else to add to my to do list!
That is awesome old mate. I just saw someone on channel 33 food network doing sea salt then googled it and found your video. I intend to do my own salt. Thanks for your video.
David
Great vid. That salt looks great, I'm going to try this as well. Thanks for the idea
You are a self made man. Wonderful show. Thank you.
What a awesome video sir really cool That you shared That im a cook myself but never had seen it happen before i did know How i would be able to make it but never did it so thanks for showing !
Thanks Jeff. I,m going to give it a try myself. We live near the coast in South Australia so good, clean sea water won’t be hard to access.
I never thought you could that I really like your channel! :)
Great video. Thank you for making this. I'm going to try it.
Outstanding tutorial on salt harvesting...
Many thanks to you Sir!...
This was fantastic. I want to do it myself someday.
Thanks for sharing this Now I can make my own at home
Awesome Jeff!!! I was chuckling because as I thought of the electricity and was trying to think of other heat options you mentioned ur comment on it. *thumbsup*.

Razor CraftMC Hi, your most welcome, thank YOU
Awesome video!! 😊
Thank you for uploading this!

That was excellent mate…thanks
great job jeff you are a legend
WOAH! I'm gonna try this! (when my parents are gone XD)
Andrew Manroe Hi Andrew, fantastic, have fun:)
You did it?
were your parents ever gone?
I have a feeling you couldn't make it past finding a boat. XD
7 years now, have you did it?
thanks for the info on how to make sea salt.
Been making sea salt for a while now,I also do a chili and garlic sea salt and another one I do is seasoned sea salt which is cinnamon,nutmeg,cloves,green cardamon and black cardamon and star anis
I never realised it could be made so easily with a couple of hours! That's amazing thanks for the video! !
Matti beaut Hi Matti, your most welcome, thank YOU:)
Awesome! I'm preparing mine as well.. thanks for the info.. 😊
how long did it take to reduce?
Very informative! Great video
Beautiful
That is cool. Sea Salt has a really nice taste I use it all the time. That made a lot more salt than I ever expected.
Many thanks, with my first salt video I discovered that I got about 4% salt which turns out to be fairly right. So imagine how much salt would be left if all the oceans dried up.
I appreciate this video alot.
Great as always Jeff, thanks!
Hi, your welcome, thank YOU:)
Thanks so much , I havealso started making salt here from Hudson bay . 2 lbs from 7 Gallon of sea water . So much better than store bought salt.
Thank you, excellent video! Appreciate it :)
Fascinating video
I'd enjoy doing this. Students might appreciate it as well.
Thank you!
Really great information to have whilst camping.xo or before travels amongst many other things.xo
that was really interesting. I'm trying that now, but just through evaporation. It's going to take a very long time!
That is amazing.
Thanks!
I'm not Australian, my whole family is from the American south, but you remind me so much of my granddad, for some reason!
Just came across this.
In days past, this was a very important and lucrative industry.
Salt was an enormously important product, and widely used for preservation, and as an important ingredient for much of the primitive manufacturing processes.
In warmer climates, the process was carried out close to the ocean in huge desalination pools. The sun and wind did the work, it was best if it didn't rain.
For most of us, we can hang a large pot (prefereably earthenware or glass because salt reacts with metal) over a wood fire outside, and essentially follow the same process as in this video.
Great video mate. Time to make some sea salt from various costal areas around the world! Thanks!!!!!!
I am going to try this but with lemonade and make my own instant lemonade powder. Perhaps it may work with other drinks as well?
Thanks for sharing...nice video
Wow so cool! 👍
Tks for sharing. I really admire your work. May i ask, if we can get the sea water just from the shore (which is clear and clean) instead of having to go far out into the sea. Also may i ask, after you processed and got the sea salt, do you need to further do any more work or you could use it directly ....like use for cooking or use for bath? .................. thanks!
very cool! thanks for the education!
Oo, that looks good on fish or veggies or anything. It's cool that it comes from the sea. 👍
Hi Alexia, thank you:)
Yup. 😊
Hello and thanks , amizing ,how long can you keep it for ? And do you leep in in the fridge ?
Or in a cupboard ? Thank you
I really wanted to make my own rock salt cuz i couldn't go outside, And i was running out of salt. This video helped me alot thank you!💖💖💖
Great video!
Jeff. It gets hot there could you try doing this in the sun?. You could try and boost the heat of the sun by using some kind of reflector .
might have to try this sometime...
Where we live it's rally hot in summer - 40 deg C for months on end. We collected an 8 litre bucket of sea water from the Mediterranean and strained it trhough cheesecloth doubled.

waaaa tysm :)”
Thanks for the video. About how long did this take?
this is awesome!
How may hours did u heat or it took to get the salt
Can this work on an open fire or camp fire or can it burn the salt ?
ty for vid by the way. that was awesome!
GoldenShaolinNutz Your most welcome, thank YOU:)
Can you tell me whats the difference between the salt you got from boiled seawater and the salt you get the from supermarkets. Is there any difference and also taste ?
Awesome video dude, thanks for sharing :)
Can you please say how many minutes you boiled how long is this procedure Pkease! Much appreciated
Can you accomplish the same end result if you simply pour the water into an open container and let the water evaporate over a few weeks?
idk y i like this video so much
sir how long did it take you to produce the salt? please reply sir, i badly need it. thank you
Great video thank you...2:44 couldn't help but have a little giggle.
Straight on the fish you caught, perfect. :)
