''Blended with water, this would produce lye.''
'''Ash''' is acquired either from a burnt out [[campfire]] , [[forge]], [[oven]], [[kiln]], [[smelter]], or [[charcoal pile]]. It is most often used as a component in the creation of [[lye]].
== Notes ==
*Adding [[log]]s to campfires will '''not''' increase the amount of ash created. Therefore, multiple fires are suggested for the purpose of bulk ash generation.
*To gather ash from a [[forge]], [[oven]], [[kiln]], or [[smelter]], activate a [[shovel]], right-click the burning vessel that was recently used, and select "clean". A fire must not be actively burning here in order to effectively gather any ash. It is also worth noting that ash will not be collectable form from the burning vessel unless a fire has first burned there for at least 30 uninterrupted, real-life minutes. At the 30-minute mark of a burn, enough material will have been consumed to create a collectable amount of ash.
