How do you make sea salt?!
Answers: I know you have to "evaporate sea water" then "clean the salt". Can someone explain the details of these two processes? Do I just put out a bucket of sea water and wait for it to all dry up?
First you get the sea water and boil it vigourously for 30 minutes to kill micro-organisms and also reduce the volume thus concentrating the salt. Then you allow to cool and filter it through filter paper with very fine pores (1 micrometer). following that, allow the water to evaporate. When most of the water has evaporated, spread the residue (salt) out onto a sheet of black plastic and allow to dry in direct sunlight. Grind up the resultant sea salt. Be aware that the salt prepared in this way is not purified and will also contain all other minerals and chemicals that the water contained, but these are generally very low.
pretty much
i have no idea but believe it or not i think you can buy it
you buy it
take sea water, and boil it to evaporate the water. purify the salt and be sure not to crush it too much....it can be really powdery
boil the sea water
Just take it to a desilanization plant an get the salt from there.
Just buy it.
That's pretty much it. Let the water evaporate and the salt is all that is left. You might want to filter the sea water first so you don't have to "clean" the salt afterward.
That is prity much it and the formula it has is NaCl
u got it in one ..
thatss what they do in coputries with a warm climate the y have beds that have sea water in and they scrape out the salt as the water evaporates
Well...... I guess you let it dry out pretty much. Then i guess wash it just a little bit. And if there are rocks, then shake it out on a strainer or something.
boil it you foolio. and y do u look pissed in your picture
The best would be to have a continually running flow of seawater so you can accrue salt; then I'd think you'd need to wash the salt off with clean water and dry that out. Keeping the salt moving & agitated would help prevent the salt from just scaling on whatever container you're using.
However, it's probably easier, cleaner, and cheaper (not to mention that it might be safer) just to buy it at a grocery store.
id boil it.. that would be faster.. but u can just buy it if u want.. they have it in grocery stores
Put it in a shallow pan and leave it out in the sun, covered with
a piece of cheeze cloth.
If you want to make sea salt for a class, then you'll need to get a large shallow (no more than two inches deep) container. Fill that with salt water and let the 'water' evaporate. Then you'll need to 'wash it' ... literally, put PURE clean water into the container and let it 'drain' then add another bit of clean water and let it evaporate. I can't help you do it the way the people who sell sea salt in the stores do, but those vary. BEWARE though, because when you 'wash' your salt, some of the salt is going to be 'washed away' in the water, so you'll have less 'sea salt' than you had when the first 'sea water' evaporated.
There is no clean sea salt.
Sea salt comes from the ocean, it's dirty even after its processed.
The best salt to use is Kosher salt, it doesn't come from the sea and doesn't come from the crap infested ocean.
Through the process of distillation.
Ya don't make sea salt, ya collect it.
As for the process, I believe that I saw something on TV bout it once.
Here is link that might
This link explains the harvest process

You don't need to clean the salt. Natural sea salt is not white and it is not dry. It is a little gray with minerals and feels damp or clumps in humidity. Its easier to just buy the unrefined salt from suppliers. Google for unrefined salt.
you got tones and tones on the sea. so you got large volume and use Sun to do the job.
You can do it by yourself but you will get miligrams. So you will need instruments to work with it. In real life large volume evaporates and after that you colect it on clean way. You can searc for "STON" as famouse place for this task as a large "farm".
