Dye
,Confirmed black dye mixing ratio. 4kg tanin + 4kg iron lumps works.
=== Ratio ===
* '''<span style=background-color:lightgrey;color:black>Black''' </span> - at least 1kg of water per [[acorn]]. Produces 1kg of [[tannin]] per acorn. 1kg of tannin per 1kg of [[iron lump]]. Larger amounts of tannin and iron produce larger amounts of dye (unconfirmed).
* <font color=blue>Blue</font> - at least 1kg of water per [[woad]]. Produces 1kg of dye per woad.
* <font color=green>Green</font> - 1kg of water per 1kg of [[copper lump]]. Larger amounts of water and copper produce larger amounts of dye.
* <font color=red>Red</font> - at least 1kg of water per [[cochineal]]. Produces 1kg of dye per cochineal.
* <span style=background-color:greyblack;color:white>White</span> - 1kg of water per 1kg of [[zinc lump]]. Larger amounts of water and zinc produce larger amounts of dye.
When using more water or tannin than metal the amount of metal determines the amount of dye produced. Sometimes a water to metal ratio that's not exactly 1:1 will only use the same amount of water as metal and leave some water in the container. You will get the message that ''Not all the dye would fit'' and the dye is lost. Therefore it is advised to use an exact 1:1 ratio.
