Sifting the ash Used ash contains charcoal burnt remains and charcoal stick residue, while the raw ash from the kiln contains residue from firing inside the kiln, so the ash must be sifted to remove larger debris.\u003cbr\u003e - The furnace ash is sifted through a sieve with 30 or 40 mesh to remove large particles of residue.\u003cbr\u003e - When using for brazier ash, use a fine sieve with 40 or 60 mesh to remove large pieces of debris.\u003cbr\u003e 2. Add water to the sifted ash, mix, leave for a while, and then pour off the top layer. Repeat this process about five times.\u003cbr\u003e Add plenty of water and leave it for a while (the time depends on the amount of ash, etc.), but it seems to be best to leave it for half a day to a day. \u003cbr\u003eTo produce cleaner ash, some people remove the scum using a fine sieve two or three times before pouring off the top layer.\u003cbr\u003e 3. Dry the ashes (in the sun)\u003cbr\u003e Spread it out on a straw mat and leave it to dry in the sun.\u003cbr\u003e *Please note that ash contains water and may be washed away with the water when spreading it on the mat.\u003cbr\u003e ●How to make damp ash It is made by pouring boiling water over furnace ash, and the color changes just by getting it wet. I use boiling water from bancha tea. (Some people use boiling water from cloves, and some people blend it with bancha tea.)\u003cbr\u003e Steps 1. Pour a little of the hot broth onto the furnace ash, rub it between your palms and stir it several times.\u003cbr\u003e Be careful not to hang too much, as it will take longer to remove the moisture.\u003cbr\u003e 3. Sift the mixture until it tastes just right. \u003cbr\u003e* * If you would like to know more about how to remove tannins and make coconut ash, there are some people on the Internet who have written about it, so you may want to refer to that information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Contents: 500g x 10 bags\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"imayaseikoen","offers":[{"title":"Bath time","offer_id":48310229172531,"sku":"hai-10-1","price":9493.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"For furnaces","offer_id":48310229205299,"sku":"hai-10-2","price":9493.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0855\/1202\/8467\/files\/hai-10.jpg?v=1712714869","url":"https:\/\/imaya.co.jp\/en\/products\/hai-10","provider":"今屋静香園","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
