Acorns Home Processing - Cold Water Method 

Thank you very informative regarding the process. Those recycled washing machine glass doors make perfect bowls!

This is a wonderful video.And I've watched several of your others too, and feel very inspired and amazed by your work and progress. It's wonderful what you have accomplished and are saving the oaks on your island. We have a variety of Burr Oak where I live in Vermont (USA) and I might try and gather some of the nuts if I can find them before the deer eat them all!

thank you

Thanks for taking the time to create the video. Trying to prepare for hard times around here and acorns are something I'm trying this year

Love it! We live in the south of Spain, amidst acorn-woods, and last year I started to collect acorns which resulted in a small bucket of very well dried acorns still in their shell. Not it 's time to go experimenting (and going after your book!).

Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou. I know to grind them with stones and blend them in a blender but camping... a Grater. That is the quiet, simple way. Love it. I have hot processed several batches but wanted to know cold for camping. I like the taste and this will improve my possibilities. Thankyou for posting!

Correction 11m30s acorns soaked for 20 hours NOT 2 hours

Thank you, Marcie 👍🏼. I currently have 8 tubs of leaching acorns on my kitchen island. This is my first year making acorn flour.

Are those ducklings I hear calling out in the background? Lol Good video, btw.

roasting your acorns with sunlight is a gangster move, i aspire to be as wise as you

I love your bowls

Thanks for your dedication to this important food. I've been using acorn starch from Korea and some small processing. I'm going to start processing acorns in bulk. as my people say, Food is our medicine and medicine is our food. wlalamekw8gon nig8na, wawasalmegwadich wji kia

Lovely to chance upon your video, Marcie! I am currently cold-water leaching some 5kg of shelled white oak acorns. I will use them as acorn flour for baking sourdough bread. I see that you grind your acorns before drying them. I plan to dehydrate them whole, then store them in jars and only grind them whenever i need some flour. Incidentally, i find that a powerful blender suffices to 'mill' the acorns into flour, fine enough for my purpose. Have you created anything interesting with the tannic acid-water?

Do we have to dry the acorns first or can we just go straight to soaking?

Does drying make them easier to crack?

Can anyone tell me if You dehydrate them if they turn black. The whole thing turns black on the inside. Is that a good or a bad sign.

You should remove the seed coat.
